The Quantum Superalgebra osp[subscript q] (1|2) and a q-Generalization of the Bannai–Ito Polynomials
The Racah problem for the quantum superalgebra osp[subscript q] (1|2) is considered. The intermediate Casimir operators are shown to realize a q-deformation of the Bannai–Ito algebra. The Racah coefficients of osp[subscript q] (1|2) are calculated explicitly in terms of basic orthogonal polynomials...

Summary: | The Racah problem for the quantum superalgebra osp[subscript q] (1|2) is considered. The intermediate Casimir operators are shown to realize a q-deformation of the Bannai–Ito algebra. The Racah coefficients of osp[subscript q] (1|2) are calculated explicitly in terms of basic orthogonal polynomials that q-generalize the Bannai–Ito polynomials. The relation between these q-deformed Bannai–Ito polynomials and the q-Racah/Askey–Wilson polynomials is discussed. |
