In mathematics the Legendre rational functions are a sequence of orthogonal functions on . They are obtained by composing the Cayley transform with Legendre polynomials.

A rational Legendre function of degree n is defined as:

where P n {\displaystyle P_{n}} is a Legendre polynomial. These functions are eigenfunctions of the singular Sturm–Liouville problem:

with eigenvalues
