Abstract
Zhedanov's algebra AW(3)
is considered with explicit structure constants
such that, in the basic representation,
the first generator becomes the second order
q-difference operator for the Askey-Wilson polynomials.
It is proved that this
representation is faithful for a certain quotient of AW(3)
such that the Casimir operator is equal to
a special constant. Some explicit aspects of the double
affine Hecke algebra (DAHA) related to symmetric and non-symmetric Askey-Wilson
polynomials are presented and proved without requiring knowledge of
general DAHA theory. Finally a central extension of this quotient of
AW(3) is introduced
which can be embedded in the DAHA by means of the faithful basic
representations of both algebras.
Key words:
Zhedanov's algebra AW(3); double affine Hecke algebra in rank one; Askey-Wilson polynomials; non-symmetric Askey-Wilson polynomials.
