Affine q-Krawtchouk polynomials

In mathematics, the affine q-Krawtchouk polynomials are a family of basic hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials in the basic Askey scheme, introduced by Carlitz and Hodges. Roelof Koekoek, Peter A. Lesky, and René F. Swarttouw (2010, 14) give a detailed list of their properties.

Definition

The polynomials are given in terms of basic hypergeometric functions and the Pochhammer symbol by ^[1]

K_{n}^{\text{aff}}(q^{-x};p;N;q)={_{2}\varphi _{1}}\left({\begin{matrix}q^{-n}&0&q^{-x}\\pq&q^{-N}\end{matrix}};q,q\right),\qquad n=0,1,2,\ldots ,N

Relation to other polynomials

Affine q-Krawtchouk polynomials → Little q-Laguerre polynomials：

\lim _{a\to 1}=K_{n}^{\text{aff}}(q^{x-N};p,N\mid q)=p_{n}(q^{x};p,q)
