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…
We introduce families of rational functions that are biorthogonal with respect to the $q$-hypergeometric distribution. A triplet of $q$-difference operators $X$, $Y$, $Z$ is shown to play a role analogous to the pair of bispectral operators…
This paper gives a rather arbitrary choice of formulas for ($q$-)hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials which the author missed while consulting Chapters 9 and 14 in the book "Hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials and their $q$-analogues" by…
In this paper the general Krall-type Askey-Wilson polynomials are introduced. These polynomials are obtained from the Askey-Wilson polynomials via the addition of two mass points to the weight function of them at the points $\pm1$. Several…
This report (written in French) is devoted to studying special functions the most used in physics. Special functions are a very broad branch of mathematics, theoretical physics, and mathematical physics. They appeared in the nineteenth…
Starting from the moment sequences of classical orthogonal polynomials we derive the orthogonality purely algebraically. We consider also the moments of ($q=1$) classical orthogonal polynomials, and study those cases in which the…
Using a realization of the q-exponential function as an infinite multiplicative sereis of the ordinary exponential functions we obtain new nonlinear connection formulae of the q-orthogonal polynomials such as q-Hermite, q-Laguerre and…
The little and big q-Jacobi polynomials are shown to arise as basis vectors for representations of the Askey-Wilson algebra. The operators that these polynomials respectively diagonalize are identified within the Askey-Wilson algebra…
In this paper, we construct the alternating multiple q-zeta function(= Multiple Euler q-zeta function) and investigate their properties. Finally, we give some interesting functional eauations related to q-Euler polynomials.
In the first part of the paper we give a definition of G_q-function and we establish a regularity result, obtained as a combination of a q-analogue of the Andre'-Chudnovsky Theorem [And89, VI] and Katz Theorem [Kat70, \S 13]. In the second…
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…
Provided a special function of one variable and some of its derivatives can be accurately computed over a finite range, a method is presented to build a series of polynomial approximations of the function with a defined relative error over…
We use generating functions to express orthogonality relations in the form of $q$-beta integrals. The integrand of such a $q$-beta integral is then used as a weight function for a new set of orthogonal or biorthogonal
These lecture notes were written for a mini-course that was designed to introduce students and researchers to {\it $q$-series,} which are also called {\it basic hypergeometric series} because of the parameter $q$ that is used as a base in…
The fractional q-calculus is the q-extension of the ordinary fractional calculus and dates back to early 20-th century. The theory of q-calculus operators are used in various areas of science such as ordinary fractional calculus, optimal…

Catalan-Daehee numbers and polynomials, generating functions of which can be expressed as p-adic Volkenborn integrals on Zp, were studied previously. The aim of this paper is to introduce q-analogues of the catalan-Daehee numbers and…
In this paper, we expand functions of specific $q$-exponential growth in terms of its even (odd) Askey- Wilson $q$-derivatives at $0$ and $\eta=(q^{1/4}+q^{-1/4})/2$. This expansion is a $q$-version of the celebrated Lidstone expansion…
The article deals with q-analogs of the three- and four-dimensional Euclidean superalgebra and the Poincare superalgebra.
We derive raising and lowering operators for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and find second order differential and $q$-difference equations for these polynomials. A general functional equation is found which allows one to relate…
