Abstract

Hahn’s difference operator D_{q;w}f(x) =({f(qx+w)-f(x)})/({(q-1)x+w}), qin (0,1), w>0, xneq w/(1-q) is used to unify the recently established difference and q-asymptotic iteration methods (DAIM, qAIM). The technique is applied to solve the second-order linear Hahn difference equations. The necessary and sufficient conditions for polynomial solutions are derived and examined for the (q;w)-hypergeometric equation.

Highlights

  • Hahn [1, 2] introduced, for x = w/(1 – q), the quantum difference operator f (q x + w) – f (x) Dq;wf (x) =, (q – 1) x + w q ∈ (0, 1), w > 0, D0q;wf (x) = f (x), Dnq;wf (x) = Dq;w Dnq;–w1f (x), n = 1, 2, . . . , (1)where f is a function defined on an interval I of R which contains w/(1 – q)

  • 2 Preliminary definitions and properties of Hahn operator To make this paper self-contained, we review the mathematical properties of the Hahn operator [1, 2, 10, 11, 18, 29,30,31,32] and provide the proofs for other new properties developed for the present work

  • These two forms (38) and (40) are equivalent, we shall focus our attention on the form (40) to investigate the solutions of the second-order linear Hahn difference equation (40) with variable coefficients
