Statement

To match the normalization of Chebyshev polynomials, which have leading coefficient $2^{N-1}$ for $N \geq 1$, we scale the monic polynomial $P_N$ by this factor.
Definition 1.3

The scaled polynomial is defined as $$S_N(x;\theta) = 2^{N-1} \cdot P_N(x;\theta).$$ It inherits the degree and roots from $P_N$, with leading coefficient $2^{N-1}$.

def scaledPolynomial (N : ) (θ : ) : Polynomial  :=
  C (2 ^ (N - 1)) * unscaledPolynomial N θ

The main theorem establishes that $S_N(x;\theta) = T_N(x) + c(\theta)$, so only the constant term varies with $\theta$. All higher-degree coefficients are $\theta$-independent and match those of $T_N$.
