Little q-Jacobi polynomials

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, the little q-Jacobi polynomials pn(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.

The following are a set of animation plots for Little q-Jacobi polynomials, with varying q; three density plots of imaginary, real and modulus in complex space; three set of complex 3D plots of imaginary, real and modulus of the said polynomials.
