Abstract: Let $V$ denote a vector space with finite positive dimension, and let $(A,B)$ denote a Leonard pair on $V$. As is known, the linear transformations $A,B$ satisfy the Askey-Wilson relations A^2B -bABA +BA^2 -g(AB+BA) -rB = hA^2 +wA +eI, B^2A -bBAB +AB^2 -h(AB+BA) -sA = gB^2 +wB +fI, for some scalars $b,g,h,r,s,w,e,f$. The scalar sequence is unique if the dimension of $V$ is at least 4. If $c,c\ast ,t,t\ast$ are scalars and $t,t\ast$ are not zero, then $(tA+c,t\ast B+c\ast )$ is a Leonard pair on $V$ as well. These affine transformations can be used to bring the Leonard pair or its Askey-Wilson relations into a convenient form. This paper presents convenient normalizations of Leonard pairs by the affine transformations, and exhibits explicit Askey-Wilson relations satisfied by them.
