Quantum q-Krawtchouk polynomials
In mathematics, the quantum q-Krawtchouk 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
[edit]The polynomials are given in terms of basic hypergeometric functions by
![{\displaystyle K_{n}^{qtm}(q^{-x};p,N;q)={}_{2}\phi _{1}\left[{\begin{matrix}q^{-n},q^{-x}\\q^{-N}\end{matrix}};q;pq^{n+1}\right]\qquad n=0,1,2,...,N.}](/media/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/f24ece50133267d8a4056ea1b586e2b58c672b91)
