Little q-Jacobi polynomials
# Little q-Jacobi polynomials

In mathematics, the little q-Jacobi polynomials $p_n(x;a,b;q)$ are a family of basic hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials in the basic Askey scheme, introduced by Hahn (1949). Roelof Koekoek, Peter A. Lesky, and René F. Swarttouw (2010, 14) give a detailed list of their properties.

## Definition

The little q-Jacobi polynomials are given in terms of basic hypergeometric functions by

    $\displaystyle p_{n}(x;a,b;q)=_{2}\phi _{1}(q^{-n},abq^{n+1};aq;q,xq)$
