Dual q-Krawtchouk polynomials

From HandWiki

In mathematics, the dual 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)[1] give a detailed list of their properties.

Definition

The polynomials are given in terms of basic hypergeometric functions by

Kn(λ(x);c,N|q)=3ϕ2(qn,qx,cqxN;qN,0|q;q),n=0,1,2,...,N,
where λ(x)=qx+cqxN.
