We construct the supersymmetric $\beta$ and $(q,t)$-deformed Hurwitz-Kontsevich partition functions through $W$-representations and present the corresponding character expansions with respect to the Jack and Macdonald superpolynomials,…
We show that hyperoctahedral Whittaker functions---diagonalizing an open quantum Toda chain with one-sided boundary potentials of Morse type---satisfy a dual system of difference equations in the spectral variable. This extends a well-known…
In this paper we present an addition to Askey's scheme of q-hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials involving classes of q-special functions which do not consist of polynomials only. The special functions are q-analogues of the Jacobi and…
In this paper we compute the spherical Fourier expansions coefficients for the restriction of the generalised Wendland functions from $d-$dimensional Euclidean space to the (d-1)-dimensional unit sphere. The development required to derive…
In the lecture notes we start off with an introduction to the $q$-hypergeometric series, or basic hypergeometric series, and we derive some elementary summation and transformation results. Then the $q$-hypergeometric difference equation is…
The classical q-hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials are assembled into a hierarchy called the q-Askey scheme. At the top of the hierarchy, there are two closely related families, the Askey-Wilson and q-Racah polynomials. As it is well…
We derive a generalized Rogers generating function and corresponding definite integral, for the continuous $q$-ultraspherical polynomials by applying its connection relation and utilizing orthogonality. Using a recent generalization of the…
In the paper, we introduce $q$-deformations of the Riemann zeta function, extend them to the whole complex plane, and establish certain estimates of the number of roots. The construction is based on the recent difference generalization of…
Whittaker functions are special functions that arise in $p$-adic number theory and representation theory. They may be defined on representations of reductive groups as well as their metaplectic covering groups: fascinatingly, many of their…
We introduce a one parameter deformation of the Zwegers' $\mu$-function as the image of $q$-Borel and $q$-Laplace transformations of a fundamental solution for the $q$-Hermite-Weber equation. We further give some formulas for our…
Spherical Whittaker functions on the metaplectic n-fold cover of GL(r+1) over a nonarchimedean local field containing n distinct n-th roots of unity may be expressed as the partition functions of statistical mechanical systems that are…
We present an explicit difference equation for the Heckman-Opdam hypergeometric function associated with root systems. Via a confluent hypergeometric limit, an analogous difference equation is obtained for the class-one Whittaker function…
Earlier work introduced a method for obtaining indefinite $q$-integrals of $q$-special functions from the second-order linear $q$-difference equations that define them. In this paper, we reformulate the method in terms of $q$-Riccati…
Asymptotic formulas are derived for the Stieltjes-Wigert polynomials $S_n(z;q)$ in the complex plane as the degree $n$ grows to infinity. One formula holds in any disc centered at the origin, and the other holds outside any smaller disc…
The two linearly independent solutions of the three-term recurrence relation of the associated Askey-Wilson polynomials, found by Ismail and Rahman in [22], are slightly modified so as to make it transparent that these functions satisfy a…
This article is the continuation of the work [DK] where we had proved maximal estimates $$\left\|\sup_{t > 0} |m(tA)f| \right\|_{L^p(\Omega,Y)} \leq C \|f\|_{L^p(\Omega,Y)}$$ for sectorial operators $A$ acting on $L^p(\Omega,Y)$ ($Y$ being…
Extensions of standard one-dimensional supersymmetric quantum mechanics are discussed. Supercharges involving higher order derivatives are introduced leading to an algebra which incorporates a higher order polynomial in the Hamiltonian. We…
Let $G$ be a reductive group over a local field $F$ of characteristic zero, Archimedean or not. Let $X$ be a $G$-space. In this paper we study the existence of generalized Whittaker quotients for the space of Schwartz functions on $X$,…
Different analogs of quasiclassical limit for a q-oscillator which result in different (commutative and non-commutative) algebras of ``classical'' observables are derived. In particular, this gives the q-deformed Poisson brackets in terms…
