Abstract
The q-special functions appear naturally in q-deformed quantum mechanics
and both sides profit from this fact. Here we study the relation between the q-deformed
harmonic oscillator and the q-Hermite polynomials. We discuss: recursion formula,
generating function, Christoffel-Darboux identity, orthogonality relations and the
moment functional.
