Abstract

We study the q-hypergeometric difference operator L on a particular Hilbert space. In this setting L can be considered as an extension of the Jacobi operator for q−1-Al-Salam–Chihara polynomials. Spectral analysis leads to unitarity and an explicit inverse of a q-analog of the Jacobi function transform. As a consequence a solution of the Al-Salam–Chihara indeterminate moment problem is obtained.
