Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials

(Redirected from Al Salam-Chihara polynomial)

In mathematics, the Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials Qn(x;a,b;q) are a family of basic hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials in the basic Askey scheme, introduced by Al-Salam and Chihara (1976). Roelof Koekoek, Peter A. Lesky, and René F. Swarttouw (2010, 14.8) give a detailed list of the properties of Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials.

Definition

edit

The Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials are given in terms of basic hypergeometric functions and the q-Pochhammer symbol by

 

where x = cos(θ).
