Abstract:

A projection formula for ${p_n}(x;a,b,c,d|q)$, the Askey-Wilson polynomials, is obtained by using a generalization of Askey and Wilson’s $q$-beta integral. The result is used to find a $q$-analogue of the Feldheim-Vilenkin formula for ultraspherical polynomials. A $q$-analogue of the ultraspherical polynomials, other than the one due to Rogers, is also introduced.
