Chebyshev approximation of $x^m (-\log x)^l$ in the interval $0\le x \le 1$

Abstract

The series expansion of $x^m (-\log x)^l$ in terms of the shifted Chebyshev Polynomials $T_n^*(x)$ requires evaluation of the integral family $\int_0^1 x^m (-\log x)^l dx / \sqrt{x-x^2}$. We demonstrate that these can be reduced by partial integration to sums over integrals with exponent $m=0$ which have known representations as finite sums over polygamma functions.
