In this paper, we give fundamental solutions of some $q$-difference equations satisfied by the universal mock theta functions and the higher level Appell functions. As an application, we provide an alternative proof of the representation…
We introduce new generalizations of the Gamma and the Beta functions. Their properties are investigated and known results are obtained as particular cases.
We adapt the theory of normal and special polynomials from symbolic integration to the summation setting, and then built up a general framework embracing both the usual shift case and the $q$-shift case. In the context of this general…
We provide several new $q$-congruences for truncated basic hypergeometric series, mostly of arbitrary order. Our results include congruences modulo the square or the cube of a cyclotomic polynomial, and in some instances, parametric…
A motivation comes from {\em M. Ismail and et al.: A generalization of starlike functions, Complex Variables Theory Appl., 14 (1990), 77--84} to study a generalization of close-to-convex functions by means of a $q$-analog of a difference…
We apply Rossi's half-plane version of Borel's Theorem to study the zero distribution of linear combinations of $\mathcal{A}$-entire functions (Theorem 1.2). This provides a unified way to study linear $q$-difference, difference and…
In the present article, we introduce a $(p,q)$-analogue of the poly-Euler polynomials and numbers by using the $(p,q)$-polylogarithm function. These new sequences are generalizations of the poly-Euler numbers and polynomials. We give…
Variants of the q-hypergeometric equation were introduced in our previous paper with Hatano. In this paper, we consider degenerations of the variant of the q-hypergeometric equation, which is a q-analogue of confluence of singularities in…
We extend expansion formulas of Liu given in 2013 to the context of multiple series over root systems. Liu and others have shown the usefulness of these formulas in Special Functions and number-theoretic contexts. We extend Wang and Ma's…
We show that the method of separation of variables gives a natural generalisation of integral relations for classical special functions of one variable. The approach is illustrated by giving a new proof of the ``quadratic'' integral…
The present paper considers a q-analogue of an operator defined by Erku\c{s}-Duman et al. (Calcolo, 45(1) (2008), 53-67) involving q-Lagrange polynomials in several variables. The Korovkin type theorems in the settings of deferred weighted…
We study the $q$-bracket operator of Bloch and Okounkov when applied to $f(\lambda)=\sum_{\lambda_i \in \lambda}g(\lambda_i)$ and $f(\lambda)=\sum_{\substack{\lambda_i \in \lambda \lambda_i \text{distinct} }}g(\lambda_i)$. We use these…
We discuss a generalized representation of the Dirac delta function in $d$ dimensions in terms of $q$-exponential functions. We apply this new representation to the study of the so-called $q$-Fourier transform, proving its invertibility for…
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…
By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…
We introduce, characterise and provide a combinatorial interpretation for the so-called $q$-Jacobi-Stirling numbers. This study is motivated by their key role in the (reciprocal) expansion of any power of a second order $q$-differential…
We prove a conjecture that arose in the context of a subspace enumeration problem over finite fields. We prove, more generally, a bibasic, double-sum identity, which extends a $q$-analogue of the (terminating) binomial theorem.
We have fundamentally corrected the proofs of the theorems from our paper [9] by giving an entirely different approach, using quite a simple method based on applications of some elementary inequalities, well-known H\"older's inequality, and…
We evaluate some finite and infinite sums involving $q$-trigonometric and $q$-digamma functions. Upon letting $q$ approach $1$, one obtains corresponding sums for the classical trigonometric and the digamma functions. Our key argument is a…
We consider summations over digamma and polygamma functions, often with summands of the form (\pm 1)^n\psi(n+p/q)/n^r and (\pm 1)^n\psi^{(m)} (n+p/q)/n^r, where m, p, q, and r are positive integers. We develop novel general integral…
