The theory of quantum symmetric pairs is applied to $q$-special functions. Previous work shows the existence of a family $\chi$-spherical functions indexed by the integers for each Hermitian quantum symmetric pair. A distinguished family of…
The concept of $q$-deformation, or ``$q$-analogue'' arises in many areas of mathematics. In algebra and representation theory, it is the origin of quantum groups; $q$-deformations are important for knot invariants, combinatorial…
The q-special functions appear naturally in q-deformed quantum mechanics and both sides profit from this fact. Here we study the relation between the q-deformed harmonic oscillator and the q-Hermite polynomials. We discuss: recursion…
The review of modern study of algebraic, geometric and differential properties of quaternionic (Q) numbers with their applications. Traditional and "tensor" formulation of Q-units with their possible representations are discussed and groups…
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…
The modified q-Bessel functions and the q-Bessel-Macdonald functions of the first and second kind are introduced. Their definition is based on representations as power series. Recurrence relations, the q-Wronskians, asymptotic…
We derive generalized generating functions for basic hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials by applying connection relations with one free parameter to them. In particular, we generalize generating functions for the Askey-Wilson, continuous…
In a recent paper with Sahi and Stokman, we introduced quasi-polynomial generalizations of Macdonald polynomials for arbitrary root systems via a new class of representations of the double affine Hecke algebra. These objects depend on a…
We describe the utility of integral representations for sums of basic hypergeometric functions. In particular we use these to derive an infinite sequence of transformations for symmetrizations over certain variables which the functions…
We present a general theory for studying the difference analogues of special functions of hypergeometric type on the linear-type lattices, i.e., the solutions of the second order linear difference equation of hypergeometric type on a…
In a preceding paper the theory of nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials taking values in modules of the Hecke algebra of type $A$ (Dunkl and Luque SLC 2012) was applied to such modules consisting of polynomials in anti-commuting variables, to…
Connection coefficient formulas for special functions describe change of basis matrices under a parameter change, for bases formed by the special functions. Such formulas are related to branching questions in representation theory. The…
We define a series $\mathcal{F}_{M,N}$ as a certain generalization of $q$-hypergeometric function. We study its duality and the system of $q$-difference nonlinear equations which admits particular solutions in terms of $\mathcal{F}_{1,M}$.
In this paper, we use two $q$-operators $\mathbb{T}(a,b,c,d,e,yD_x)$ and $\mathbb{E}(a,b,c,d,e,y\theta_x)$ to derive two potentially useful generalizations of the $q$-binomial theorem, a set of two extensions of the $q$-Chu-Vandermonde…
Given the growing quantity of proposals and works of basic hypergeometric functions in the scope of $q$-calculus, it is important to introduce a systematic classification of $q$-calculus. Our aim in this article is to investigate certain…
We study some classes of symmetric operators for the discrete series representations of the quantum algebra U_q(su_{1,1}), which may serve as Hamiltonians of various physical systems. The problem of diagonalization of these operators…
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 purpose of this paper is to introduce and study a q-analogue of the holonomic system of differential equations associated to the Belavin's classical r-matrix (elliptic r-matrix equations), or, equivalently, to define an elliptic…
General theory of elliptic hypergeometric series and integrals is outlined. Main attention is paid to the examples obeying properties of the "classical" special functions. In particular, an elliptic analogue of the Gauss hypergeometric…
A new type of sl_3 basic hypergeometric series based on Macdonald polynomials is introduced. Besides a pair of Macdonald polynomials attached to two different sets of variables, a key-ingredient in the sl_3 basic hypergeometric series is a…
