Abstract: In this paper we describe two pairs of raising/lowering operators for Askey-Wilson polynomials, which result from constructions involving very different techniques. The first technique is quite elementary, and depends only on the classical properties of these polynomials, viz. the q-difference equation and the three term recurrence. The second technique is less elementary, and involves the one-variable version of the double affine Hecke algebra.

Review text

The author constructs raising/lowering operators for Askey-Wilson polynomials based on two different techniques. The first technique depends on the \(q\)-difference equation and the three term recurrence which are satisfied by these polynomials, so it can be applied to all polynomials in the Askey scheme. The second one is based on Hecke algebra considerations and the calculations are a little more intricate.
