  • Section 4.43

    The first paragraph has been rewritten to correct reported errors. The new version is reproduced here.

    Let p ( 0 ) and q be real constants and

    4.43.1
    A = ( 4 3 p ) 1 / 2 ,
    B = ( 4 3 p ) 1 / 2 .

    The roots of

    4.43.2 z 3 + p z + q = 0

    are:

    1. (a)

      A sin a , A sin ( a + 2 3 π ) , and A sin ( a + 4 3 π ) , with sin ( 3 a ) = 4 q / A 3 , when 4 p 3 + 27 q 2 0 .

    2. (b)

      A cosh a , A cosh ( a + 2 3 π i ) , and A cosh ( a + 4 3 π i ) , with cosh ( 3 a ) = 4 q / A 3 , when p < 0 , q < 0 , and 4 p 3 + 27 q 2 > 0 .

    3. (c)

      B sinh a , B sinh ( a + 2 3 π i ) , and B sinh ( a + 4 3 π i ) , with sinh ( 3 a ) = 4 q / B 3 , when p > 0 .

    Note that in Case (a) all the roots are real, whereas in Cases (b) and (c) there is one real root and a conjugate pair of complex roots. See also §1.11(iii).

    For applications of Krawtchouk polynomials K n ( x ; p , N ) and q -Racah polynomials R n ( x ; α , β , γ , δ | q ) to coding theory see Bannai (1990, pp. 38–43), Leonard (1982), and Chihara (1987). … where Q 0 is a constant with explicit expression in terms of e 1 , e 2 , e 3 , e 4 and q given in Koornwinder (2007a, (2.8)). The abstract associative algebra with generators K 0 , K 1 , K 2 and relations (18.38.4), (18.38.6) and with the constants B , C 0 , C 1 , D 0 , D 1 in (18.38.6) not yet specified, is called the Zhedanov algebra or Askey–Wilson algebra AW(3). … The Dunkl operator, introduced by Dunkl (1989), is an operator associated with reflection groups or root systems which has terms involving first order partial derivatives and reflection terms. …Eigenvalue equations involving Dunkl type operators have as eigenfunctions nonsymmetric analogues of multivariable special functions associated with root systems. …
