We give a $q$-analog of middle convolution for linear $q$-difference equations with rational coefficients. In the differential case, middle convolution is defined by Katz, and he examined properties of middle convolution in detail. In this paper, we define a $q$-analog of middle convolution. Moreover, we show that it also can be expressed as a $q$-analog of Euler transformation. The $q$-middle convolution transforms Fuchsian type equation to Fuchsian type equation and preserves rigidity index of $q$-difference equations.
The q-Hermite I-Sobolev type polynomials of higher order are consider for their study. Their hypergeometric representation is provided together with further useful properties such as several structure relations which give rise to a three-term recurrence relation of their elements. Two different q-difference equations satisfied by the q-Hermite I-Sobolev type polynomials of higher order are also established.
A sufficient condition for the convergence of a generalized formal power series solution to an algebraic $q$-difference equation is provided. The main result leans on a geometric property related to the semi-group of (complex) power exponents of such a series. This property corresponds to the situation in which the small divisors phenomenon does not arise. Some examples illustrating the cases where the obtained sufficient condition can be or cannot be applied are also depicted.
We consider a family of solutions of $q-$difference Riccati equation, and prove the meromorphic solutions of $q-$difference Riccati equation and corresponding second order $q-$difference equation are concerning with $q-$gamma function. The growth and value distribution of differences on solutions of $q-$difference Riccati equation are also investigated.
This contribution deals with the sequence ${mathbb{U}_{n}^{(a)}(x;q,j)}_{ngeq 0}$ of monic polynomials, orthogonal with respect to a Sobolev-type inner product related to the Al-Salam--Carlitz I orthogonal polynomials, and involving an arbitrary number of $q$-derivatives on the two boundaries of the corresponding orthogonality interval. We provide sever
Using a relation due to Katz linking up additive and multiplicative convolutions, we make explicit the behaviour of some Hodge invariants by middle multiplicative convolution, following [DS13] and [Mar18a] in the additive case. Moreover, the main theorem gives a new proof of a result of Fedorov computing the Hodge invariants of hypergeometric equations.
