Recurrence relations for connection coefficients between q-orthogonal polynomials of discrete variables in the non-uniform lattice X(s) = q2s
Abstract
We obtain the structure relations for q-orthogonal polynomials in the exponential lattice q 2s and from that we construct the recurrence relation for the connection coe cients between two families of polynomials belonging to the classical class of discrete q-orthogonal polynomials. An explicit example is also given.
