Some generating functions of Jacobi polynomials

In this paper, Weisner’s group-theoretic method of obtaining generating functions is utilized in the study of Jacobi polynomialsP> _n ^(a,ß)(x) by giving suitable interpretations to the index (n) and the parameter (β) to find out the elements for constructing a six-dimensional Lie algebra.     

Another homogeneous q-difference operator

In this paper we show the equivalence between Goldman-Rota q-binomial identity and its inverse. We may specialize the value of the parameters in the generating functions of Rogers-Szegö polynomials to obtain some classical results such as Euler identities and the relation between classical and homogeneous Rogers-Szegö polynomials. We give a new formula for the homogeneous Rogers-Szegö polynomials h_n(x,y|q). We introduce a q-difference operator θ_xy on functions in two variables which turn out to be suitable for dealing with the homogeneous form of the q-binomial identity. By using this operator, we got the identity obtained by Chen et al. [W.Y.C. Chen, A.M. Fu, B. Zhang, The homogeneous q-difference operator, Advances in Applied Mathematics 31 (2003) 659-668, Eq. (2.10)] which they used it to derive many important identities. We also obtain the q-Leibniz formula for this operator. Finally, we introduce a new polynomials s_n(x,y;b|q) and derive their generating function by using the new homogeneous q-shift operator L(bθ_xy).     

Approximation properties for generalized q-Bernstein polynomials

In this paper, we introduce the generalized q-Bernstein polynomials based on the q-integers and we study approximation properties of these operators. In special case, we obtain Stancu operators or Phillips polynomials.     

Expansion of analytic functions in q-orthogonal polynomials

A classical result on the expansion of an analytic function in a series of Jacobi polynomials is extended to a class of q-orthogonal polynomials containing the fundamental Askey–Wilson polynomials and their special cases. The function to be expanded has to be analytic inside an ellipse in the complex plane with foci at ±1. Some examples of explicit expansions are discussed.      

A note on the modified q-Bernstein polynomials for functions of several variables and their reflections on q-Volkenborn integration

In this paper, we consider the modified q-Bernstein polynomials for functions of several variables on q-Volkenborn integral and investigate some new interesting properties of these polynomials related to q-Stirling numbers, Hermite polynomials and Carlitz’s type q-Bernoulli numbers.     

Some properties of q-biorthogonal polynomials

Almost four decades ago, Konhauser introduced and studied a pair of biorthogonal polynomials

     

Some families of generating functions for the extended Srivastava polynomials

Almost four decades ago, H.M. Srivastava considered a general family of univariate polynomials, the Srivastava polynomials, and initiated a systematic investigation for this family [10]. In 2001, B. González, J. Matera and H.M. Srivastava extended the Srivastava polynomials by inserting one more parameter [4]. In this study we obtain a family of linear generating functions for these extended polynomials. Some illustrative results including Jacobi, Laguerre and Bessel polynomials are also presented. Furthermore, mixed multilateral and multilinear generating functions are derived for these polynomials.     

On some properties of q-Hahn multiple orthogonal polynomials

This contribution deals with multiple orthogonal polynomials of type II with respect to q-discrete measures (q-Hahn measures). In addition, we show that this family of multiple orthogonal polynomials has a lowering operator, and raising operators, as well as a Rodrigues type formula. The combination of lowering and raising operators leads to a third order q-difference equation when two orthogonality conditions are considered. An explicit expression of this q-difference equation will be given. Indeed, this q-difference equation relates polynomials with a given degree evaluated at four consecutive non-uniformed distributed points, which makes these polynomials interesting from the point of view of bispectral problems.     

New families of generating functions for certain class of three-variable polynomials

Recently, Srivastava, Özarslan and Kaanoglu have introduced certain families of three and two variable polynomials, which include Lagrange and Lagrange-Hermite polynomials, and obtained families of two-sided linear generating functions between these families [H.M. Srivastava, M.A. Özarslan, C. Kaanoglu, Some families of generating functions for a certain class of three-variable polynomials, Integr. Transform. Spec. Funct. iFirst (2010) 1-12]. The main object of this investigation is to obtain new two-sided linear generating functions between these families by applying certain hypergeometric transformations. Furthermore, more general families of bilinear, bilateral, multilateral finite series relationships and generating functions are presented for them.     

On discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials and their duals

A special case of the big q-Jacobi polynomials Pn(x;a,b,c;q), which corresponds to a=b=−c, is shown to satisfy a discrete orthogonality relation for imaginary values of the parameter a (outside of its commonly known domain 0<a<q⁻¹). Since Pn(x;qα,qα,−qα;q) tend to Gegenbauer (or ultraspherical) polynomials in the limit as q→1, this family represents another q-extension of these classical polynomials, different from the continuous q-ultraspherical polynomials of Rogers. For a dual family with respect to the polynomials Pn(x;a,a,−a;q) (i.e., for dual discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials) we also find new orthogonality relations with extremal measures.     

A q-summation formula,the continuous q-Hahn polynomials and the big q-Jacobi polynomials

Using a general q-summation formula, we derive a generating function for the q-Hahn polynomials, which is used to give a complete proof of the orthogonality relation for the continuous q-Hahn polynomials. A new proof of the orthogonality relation for the big q-Jacobi polynomials is also given. A simple evaluation of the Nassrallah–Rahman integral is derived by using this summation formula. A new q-beta integral formula is established, which includes the Nassrallah–Rahman integral as a special case. The q-summation formula also allows us to recover several strange q-series identities.     

Inverse functions of polynomials and orthogonal polynomials as operator monotone functions

We study the operator monotonicity of the inverse of every polynomial with a positive leading coefficient. Let be a sequence of orthonormal polynomials and the restriction of to , where is the maximum zero of . Then and the composite are operator monotone on . Furthermore, for every polynomial with a positive leading coefficient there is a real number so that the inverse function of defined on is semi-operator monotone, that is, for matrices , implies

     

Some results for the q-Bernoulli and q-Euler polynomials

We show some results for the q-Bernoulli and q-Euler polynomials. The formulas in series of the Carlitz's q-Stirling numbers of the second kind are also considered. The q-analogues of well-known formulas are derived from these results.     

New orthogonality relations for the continuous and the discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials

In a recent contribution [N.M. Atakishiyev, A.U. Klimyk, On discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials and their duals, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 306 (2005) 637-645], the so-named discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials were introduced as a specialization of the big q-Jacobi polynomials, and their orthogonality established for values of the parameter outside its commonly known domain but inside the range of validity of the conditions of Favard's theorem. In this paper we consider both the continuous and the discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials and we prove that their orthogonality is guaranteed for the whole range of the allowed parameters, even in those intriguing cases in which the three term recurrence relation breaks down. The presence of either the Askey-Wilson divided difference operator (in the continuous case), or the q-derivative operator (in the discrete one), provides the q-Sobolev character of the non-standard inner products introduced in our approach.     

Limit relations for the complex zeros of Laguerre and q-Laguerre polynomials

For each the nth Laguerre polynomial has an m-fold zero at the origin when α=−m. As the real variable α→−m, it has m simple complex zeros which approach 0 in a symmetric way. This symmetry leads to a finite value for the limit of the sum of the reciprocals of these zeros. There is a similar property for the zeros of the q-Laguerre polynomials and of the Jacobi polynomials and similar results hold for sums of other negative integer powers.     

Explicit Forms of q-Deformed Levy-Meixner Polynomials and Their Generating Functions

The classical Levy-Meixner polynomials are distinguished through the special forms of their generating functions. In fact, they are completely determined by 4 parameters： c1, c2,γ and β. In this paper, for-1 〈q〈 1, we obtain a unified explicit form of q-deformed Levy-Meixner polynomials and their generating functions in term of c1, c2, γand β, which is shown to be a reasonable interpolation between classical case （q=1） and fermionic case （q=-1）.In particular, when q=0 it＇s also compatible with the free case.     

On q-orthogonal polynomials, dual to little and big q-Jacobi polynomials

We derive discrete orthogonality relations for polynomials, dual to little and big q-Jacobi polynomials. This derivation essentially requires use of bases, consisting of eigenvectors of certain self-adjoint operators, which are representable by a Jacobi matrix. Recurrence relations for these polynomials are also given.     

Second structure relation for q-semiclassical polynomials of the Hahn Tableau

The q-classical orthogonal polynomials of the q-Hahn Tableau are characterized from their orthogonality condition and by a first and a second structure relation. Unfortunately, for the q-semiclassical orthogonal polynomials (a generalization of the classical ones) we find only in the literature the first structure relation. In this paper, a second structure relation is deduced. In particular, by means of a general finite-type relation between a q-semiclassical polynomial sequence and the sequence of its q-differences such a structure relation is obtained.     

Certain bilateral generating relations for generalized hypergeometric functions

Recently, we introduced a class of generalized hypergeometric functionsI n:(b _q)/α:(a _p) (x, w) by using a difference operator Δ _x,w , where . In this paper an attempt has been made to obtain some bilateral generating relations associated withI _n ^ga (x, w). Each result is followed by its applications to the classical orthogonal polynomials.     

On the q-Bernstein polynomials of rational functions with real poles

The paper aims to investigate the convergence of the q  -Bernstein polynomials _Bn,q(f;x)$B_{n,q}(f;x)$ attached to rational functions in the case q>1$q>1$. The problem reduces to that for the partial fractions (x−α)^−j${(x-\alpha )}^{-j}$, j∈N$j\in \mathbb{N}$. The already available results deal with cases, where either the pole α   is simple or α≠q^−m$\alpha \ne q^{-m}$, m∈_N0$m\in {\mathbb{N}}_0$. Consequently, the present work is focused on the polynomials _Bn,q(f;x)$B_{n,q}(f;x)$ for the functions of the form f(x)=(x−q^−m)^−j$f(x)={(x-q^{-m})}^{-j}$ with j?2$j?2$. For such functions, it is proved that the interval of convergence of {_Bn,q(f;x)}$\{B_{n,q}(f;x)\}$ depends not only on the location, but also on the multiplicity of the pole – a phenomenon which has not been considered previously.
