The Macdonald polynomials are \((q,t)\)-deformations of the Schur functions which play an important role in the representation theory of the double affine Hecke algebra since they are the eigenfunctions of the Cherednik elements. In this paper, the specialization \(t=q^k\), \(k\) being a (strictly) positive integer, of the homogeneous symmetric Macdonald polynomials \(P_{\lambda}(\mathbb{X};q,t)\) is considered. An identity relating the Macdonald polynomials \(P_{\lambda}(\mathbb{X};q,q^k)\) and \(P_{\lambda}(\frac{1-q}{1-q^k} \mathbb{X};q,q^k)\) is shown (in the \(\lambda\)-ring notation). As a consequence, the polynomials \(P_{\lambda}(\mathbb{X};q,q^k)\) are characterized by the eigenvalue of an operator whose eigenspaces are of dimension \(1\). Moreover, this operator is expressed in terms of the Cherednik elements.
