Abstract

The qq-integer is the polynomial [n]q=1+q+q2++qn1[n]_q = 1 + q + q^2 + \dots + q^{n-1}. For every sequences of polynomials S={sm(q)}m=1\mathcal S = \{s_m(q)\}_{m=1}^\infty, T={tm(q)}m=1\mathcal T = \{t_m(q)\}_{m=1}^\infty, U={um(q)}m=1\mathcal U = \{u_m(q)\}_{m=1}^\infty and V={vm(q)}m=1\mathcal V = \{v_m(q)\}_{m=1}^\infty, define an addition rule for three qq-integers by S,T,U,V([m]q,[n]q,[k]q)=sm(q)[m]q+tm(q)[n]q+um(q)[k]q+vm(q)[n]q[k]q.\oplus_{\mathcal S,\mathcal T,\mathcal U,\mathcal V} ([m]_q, [n]_q, [k]_q) = s_m (q) [m]_q + t_m (q) [n]_q + u_m(q) [k]_q + v_m (q) [n]_q [k]_q . This is called the first kind of quadratic addition rule for three qq-integers, if S,T,U,V([m]q,[n]q,[k]q)=[m+n+k]q\oplus_{\mathcal S,\mathcal T,\mathcal U,\mathcal V} ([m]_q, [n]_q, [k]_q) = \left[m+n+k\right]_q for all positive integers mm, nn, kk. In this paper the first kind of quadratic addition rules for three qq-integers are determined when sm(q)1s_m(q)\equiv 1. Moreover, the solution of the functional equation for a sequence of polynomials {fn(q)}n=1\{f_n(q)\}_{n=1}^\infty given by fm+n+k(q)=fm(q)+qmfn(q)+qmfk(q)+qm(q1)fn(q)fk(q)f_{m+n+k} (q) = f_m (q) + q^m f_n (q) + q^m f_k (q) + q^m (q-1) f_n (q) f_k (q) for all positive integers mm, nn, kk, are computed.
