q-Hahn polynomials

In mathematics, the q-Hahn polynomials are a family of basic hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials in the basic Askey scheme. 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 by

Relation to other polynomials

q-Hahn polynomials→ Quantum q-Krawtchouk polynomials

q-Hahn polynomials→ Hahn polynomials

make the substitution, into definition of q-Hahn polynomials, and find the limit q→1, we obtain

,which is exactly Hahn polynomials.
