Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a trivariate q-polynomials \(F_n(x,y,z;q)\) as a general form of Hahn polynomials \(\psi _n^{(a)}(x|q)\) and \(\psi _n^{(a)}(x,y|q)\). We represent \(F_n(x,y,z;q)\) by two operators: the homogeneous q-shift operator \(L(b\theta _{xy})\) given by Saad and Sukhi (Appl Math Comput 215:4332–4339, 2010), and the Cauchy companion operator \(E(a,b;\theta )\) given by Chen (q-Difference Operator and Basic Hypergeometric Series, 2009) to derive the generating function, symmetric property, Mehler’s formula, Rogers formula, another Roger-type formula, linearization formula, and an extended Rogers formula for the trivariate q-polynomials. Then, we give the corresponding formulas for our new definitions of Hahn polynomials \(\psi _n^{(a)}(x|q)\) and \(\psi _n^{(a)}(x,y|q)\) by representing Hahn polynomials by the operators \(L(b\theta _{xy})\) and \(E(a,b;\theta )\), and by a special substitution in the trivariate q-polynomials \(F_n(x,y,z;q)\).
