Q-difference Polynomial - Generating Function

Generating Function

The generating function for these polynomials is of the type of generating function for Brenke polynomials, namely

where is the q-exponential:

$e_q(t)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{t^n}{_q!}= \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{t^n (1-q)^n}{(q;q)_n}.$

Here, is the q-factorial and

is the q-Pochhammer symbol. The function is arbitrary but assumed to have an expansion

Any such gives a sequence of q-difference polynomials.

Famous quotes containing the word function:

“Every boy was supposed to come into the world equipped with a father whose prime function was to be our father and show us how to be men. He can escape us, but we can never escape him. Present or absent, dead or alive, real or imagined, our father is the main man in our masculinity.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
