    Some Basic Hypergeometric Orthogonal Polynomials that Generalize Jacobi Polynomials

    The polynomials pn(x) are obviously symmetric in b, c and d, and are now seen to be symmetric in the four parameters a, b, c, d. This symmetry relation is not new. It was given by Sears [S3,(8.3)], and is a q-extension of a well-known ...
