Abstract

Basic (or q -) series and basic (or q -) polynomials, especially the basic (or q -) hypergeometric functions and the basic (or q -) hypergeometric polynomials are studied extensively and widely due mainly to their potential for applications in many areas of mathematical and physical sciences. Here, in this paper, we introduce a general family of q -hypergeometric polynomials and investigate several q -series identities such as an extended generating function and a Srivastava-Agarwal type bilinear generating function for this family of q -hypergeometric polynomials. We give a transformational identity involving generating functions for the generalized q -hypergeometric polynomials which we have introduced here. We also point out relevant connections of the various q -results, which we investigate here, with those in several related earlier works on this subject. We conclude this paper by remarking that it will be a rather trivial and inconsequential exercise to give the so-called ( p , q ) -variations of the q -results, which we have investigated here, because the additional parameter p is obviously redundant.
