Askey-Wilson Polynomials as Zonal Spherical Functions on the SU(2) Quantum Group
نویسنده
چکیده
On the SU(2) quantum group the notion of (zonal) spherical element is generalized by considering left and right invariance in the infinitesimal sense with respect to twisted primitive elements of the sl(2) quantized universal enveloping algebra. The resulting spherical elements belonging to irreducible representations of quantum SU(2) turn out to be expressible as a two-parameter family of Askey-Wilson polynomials. For a related basis change of the representation space a matrix of dual q-Krawtchouk polynomials is obtained. Big and little q-Jacobi polynomials are obtained as limits of Askey-Wilson polynomials.

A second addition formula for continuous q-ultraspherical polynomials
This paper provides the details of Remark 5.4 in the author’s paper “Askey-Wilson polynomials as zonal spherical functions on the SU(2) quantum group”, SIAM J. Math. Anal. 24 (1993), 795–813. In formula (5.9) of the 1993 paper a two-parameter class of Askey-Wilson polynomials was expanded as a finite Fourier series with a product of two 3phi2’s as Fourier coefficients. The proof given there use...

متن کاملFourier transforms on the quantum SU(1,1) group
The main goal is to interpret the Askey-Wilson function and the corresponding transform pair on the quantum SU(1, 1) group. A weight on the C *-algebra of continuous functions vanishing at infinity on the quantum SU(1, 1) group is studied, which is left and right invariant in a weak sense with respect to a product defined using Wall functions. The Haar weight restricted to certain subalgebras a...
متن کاملAnalysis on the Su ( 2 ) Dynamical Quantum Group
Dynamical quantum groups were recently introduced by Etingof and Varchenko as an algebraic framework for studying the dynamical Yang–Baxter equation, which is precisely the Yang–Baxter equation satisfied by 6j-symbols. We investigate one of the simplest examples, generalizing the standard SU(2) quantum group. The matrix elements for its corepresentations are identified with Askey–Wilson polynom...
