In this paper we characterize the Rogers q-Hermite polynomials as the only orthogonal polynomial set which is also ${\cal D}_q$-Appell where ${\cal D}_q $ is the Askey-Wilson finite difference operator.
We introduce operator-valued twisted Araki-Woods algebras. These are operator-valued versions of a class of second quantization algebras that includes $q$-Gaussian and $q$-Araki-Woods algebras and also generalize Shlyakhtenko's von Neumann…
In this paper, we introduce the so-called elliptic Askey-Wilson polynomials which are homogeneous polynomials in two special theta functions. With regard to the significance of polynomials of such kind, we establish some general elliptic…
This is the second in a series of papers which intend to explore conceptual ways of distinguishing between families in the $q$-Askey scheme and uniform ways of parametrizing the families. For a system of polynomials $p_n(x)$ in the…
Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the volume operator, associated with the symmetric coupling of three SU(2) angular momentum operators, can be analyzed on the basis of a discrete Schroedinger-like equation which provides a semiclassical…

The $J$-matrix method is extended to difference and $q$-difference operators and is applied to several explicit differential, difference, $q$-difference and second order Askey-Wilson type operators. The spectrum and the spectral measures…
We establish a Wiman-Valiron theory of a polynomial series based on the Askey-Wilson operator $\mathcal{D}_q$, where $q\in(0,1)$. For an entire function $f$ of log-order smaller than $2$, this theory includes (i) an estimate which shows…

A two-variable extension of the Bannai-Ito polynomials is presented. They are obtained via $q\to-1$ limits of the bivariate $q$-Racah and Askey-Wilson orthogonal polynomials introduced by Gasper and Rahman. Their orthogonality relation is…
The aim of this article is to detect the ascent and descent of weighted composition operators on Lorentz spaces. We investigate the conditions on the measurable transformation $T$ and the complex-valued measurable function $u$ defined on…

We deform the well-known three dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ Wess-Zumino model by adding higher derivative operators (Lee-Wick operators) to its action. The effects of these operators are investigated both at the classical and quantum levels.
The nature of so-called differential-algebraic operators and their approximations is constitutive for the direct treatment of higher-index differential-algebraic equations. We treat first-order differential-algebraic operators in detail and…
