We propose a novel, general method to produce orthogonal polynomial dualities from the $^*$--bialgebra structure of Drinfeld--Jimbo quantum groups. The $^*$--structure allows for the construction of certain \textit{unitary} symmetries,…
We show that a new unitary transform with characteristics almost similar to those of the finite Fourier transform can be defined in any finite-dimensional Hilbert space. It is defined by using the Kravchuk polynomials, and we call it…

We study skew-orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weight function $\exp[-2V(x)]$, with $V(x)=\sum_{K=1}^{2d}(u_{K}/{K})x^{K}$, $u_{2d} > 0$, $d > 0$. A finite subsequence of such skew-orthogonal polynomials arising in the study of…

We calculate factorizing twists in evaluation representations of the quantum affine algebra U_q(\hat sl_2). From the factorizing twists we derive a representation independent expression of the R-matrices of U_q(\hat sl_2). Comparing with…
A construction is given of the most general representations of the q-oscillator algebra where both generators are tridiagonal. It is shown to be connected to the Askey-Wilson polynomials.
