Abstract: We present an operator approach to Rogers-type formulas and Mehler's formulas for the Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials Un(x,y,a;q). By using the q-exponential operator, we obtain a Rogers-type formula which leads to a linearization formula. With the aid of a bivariate augmentation operator, we get a simple derivation of Mehler's formula due to by Al-Salam and Carlitz, which requires a terminating condition on a 3phi2 series. By means of the Cauchy companion augmentation operator, we obtain Mehler's formula in a similar form, but it does not need the terminating condition. We also give several identities on the generating functions for products of the Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials which are extensions of formulas for Rogers-Szeg"o polynomials.
