On the Expansion of Legendre Polynomials in Bicomplex Space and Coupling with Fractional Operators

In this paper, we introduce a novel version of the Legendre polynomials in the bicomplex system. We investigate the essential properties of the Legendre polynomial, focusing on its bicomplex structure, generating functions, orthogonality, and recurrence relations. We present a solution to the Legendre differential equation in bicomplex space. Additionally, we discuss both theoretical and practical contributions, especially in bicomplex Riemann Liouville fractional calculus. We numerically study the construction of bicomplex Legendre polynomials, orthogonality, spectral projection, coefficient decay, and spectral convergence in bicomplex space. The findings contribute to a deeper insight into bicomplex functions, paving the way for further developments in science and mathematical analysis, and providing a foundation for future research on special functions and fractional operators within the bicomplex setting.
