Some Remarks on Very - Well - Poised 8 φ 7 Series
نویسنده
چکیده
Nonpolynomial basic hypergeometric eigenfunctions of the Askey–Wilson second order difference operator are known to be expressible as very-well-poised 8φ7 series. In this paper we use this fact to derive various basic hypergeometric and theta function identities. We relate most of them to identities from the existing literature on basic hypergeometric series. This leads for example to a new derivation of a known quadratic transformation formula for very-well-poised 8φ7 series. We also provide a link to Chalykh’s theory on (rank one, BC type) Baker–Akhiezer functions.

متن کاملThe Associated Askey-wilson Polynomials
We derive some contiguous relations for very well-poised 8<^7 series and use them to construct two linearly independent solutions of the three-term recurrence relation of the associated Askey-Wilson polynomials. We then use these solutions to find explicit representations of two families of associated Askey-Wilson polynomials. We identify the corresponding continued fractions as quotients of tw...
متن کاملElementary Derivations of Identities for Bilateral Basic Hypergeometric Series
We give elementary derivations of several classical and some new summation and transformation formulae for bilateral basic hypergeometric series. For purpose of motivation, we review our previous simple proof (“A simple proof of Bailey’s very-well-poised 6ψ6 summation”, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., to appear) of Bailey’s very-well-poised 6ψ6 summation. Using a similar but different method, we now gi...
متن کاملOrthogonality of Very Well-poised Series
Rodrigues formulas for very well-poised basic hypergeometric series of any order are given. Orthogonality relations are found for rational functions which generalize Rahman’s 10φ9 biorthogonal rational functions. A pair of orthogonal rational functions of type RII is identified. Elliptic analogues of some of these results are also included.
متن کاملA Multidimensional Generalization of Shukla's 8 Ψ 8 Summation
Abstract. We give an r-dimensional generalization of H. S. Shukla’s very-wellpoised 8ψ8 summation formula. We work in the setting of multiple basic hypergeometric series very-well-poised over the root system Ar−1, or equivalently, the unitary group U(r). Our proof, which is already new in the one-dimensional case, utilizes an Ar−1 nonterminating very-well-poised 6φ5 summation by S. C. Milne, a ...
