Abstract: The Askey-Wilson function transform is a q-analogue of the Jacobi function transform with kernel given by an explicit non-polynomial eigenfunction of the Askey-Wilson second order q-difference operator. The kernel is called the Askey-Wilson function. In this paper an explicit expansion formula for the Askey-Wilson function in terms of Askey-Wilson polynomials is proven. With this expansion formula at hand, the image under the Askey-Wilson function transform of an Askey-Wilson polynomial multiplied by an analogue of the Gaussian is computed explicitly. As a special case of these formulas a q-analogue (in one variable) of the Macdonald-Mehta integral is obtained, for which also two alternative, direct proofs are presented.

Review text

Here an explicit expansion formula for the Askey-Wilson function in terms of Askey-Wilson polynomials is formulated. The proper analogue of the Gaussian for the Askey-Wilson theory is introduced and the image under the polynomial Askey-Wilson transform of an Askey-Wilson polynomial multiplied by the inverse of the Gaussian is computed. A special case leads to the evaluation of a \(q\)-analogue of the (one variable) Macdonald-Mehta integral. Finally two alternative proofs for the evaluation of this important integral are added which do not make use of the properties ot the Askey-Wilson function transform.
