4.19 Continuous q-Laguerre

Al-Salam-Chihara Continuous q-Laguerre.

   
The continuous q-Laguerre polynomials defined by (3.19.1) can be obtained from the Al-Salam-Chihara polynomials given by (3.8.1) by taking and :

q-Meixner-Pollaczek Continuous q-Laguerre.

  
If we take , and in the definition (3.9.1) of the q-Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials we obtain the continuous q-Laguerre polynomials given by (3.19.1) :

Continuous q-Jacobi Continuous q-Laguerre.

   
The continuous q-Laguerre polynomials given by (3.19.1) and (3.19.15) follow simply from the continuous q-Jacobi polynomials defined by (3.10.1) and (3.10.14) respectively by taking the limit :

and

Continuous q-Laguerre Continuous q-Hermite.

   
The continuous q-Hermite polynomials given by (3.26.1) can be obtained from the continuous q-Laguerre polynomials defined by (3.19.1) by taking the limit in the following way :
