4.5 Big q-Jacobi

Askey-Wilson Big q-Jacobi.

  
The big q-Jacobi polynomials defined by (3.5.1) can be obtained from the Askey-Wilson polynomials by setting , , and in

defined by (3.1.1) and then taking the limit :

q-Racah Big q-Jacobi.

  
The big q-Jacobi polynomials defined by (3.5.1) can be obtained from the q-Racah polynomials by setting in the definition (3.2.1) :

Big q-Jacobi Big q-Laguerre.

  
If we set b = 0 in the definition (3.5.1) of the big q-Jacobi polynomials we obtain the big q-Laguerre polynomials given by (3.11.1) :

Big q-Jacobi Little q-Jacobi.

  
The little q-Jacobi polynomials defined by (3.12.1) can be obtained from the big q-Jacobi polynomials by the substitution in the definition (3.5.1) and then by the limit :

Big q-Jacobi q-Meixner.

  
If we take the limit in the definition (3.5.1) of the big q-Jacobi polynomials we simply obtain the q-Meixner polynomials defined by (3.13.1) :
