+# LegendreZeros
+
+This repository contains MATLAB-code for a numerical scheme developed to compute the $k$-zeros of the special case of the associated Legendre function $P_{-1/2 + ik}^m(x)$, 
+with $k$ real, $m$ integral and $x$ real exceeding one (aka. the Mehler or conical function).
+
+This work has been made as part of a research project at the Aalto University [Department of Mathematics and Systems Analysis](https://math.aalto.fi/en/) and 
+my B.Sc. Thesis "Legendren liittofunktion nollakohdat", translating to "Zeros of the associated Legendre function".
+* NOTE: Link to the B.Sc. Thesis will be added later.
+
+The method uses only MATLAB files, but the open source MATLAB package Chebfun is required for proper use of the code, 
+ie. the package needs to be installed and added to the MATLAB PATH. Chebfun is available for free [here](https://www.chebfun.org/) 
+and the documentation can be found [here](https://www.chebfun.org/docs/).
