On the q -polynomials: a distributed study

In this paper we present a uni1ed distributional study of the classical discrete q-polynomials (in the Hahn’s sense). From the distributional q-Pearson equation we will deduce many of their properties such as the three-term recurrence relations, structure relations, etc. Also several characterizations of such q-polynomials are presented. c
