The quantum calculus has emerged as a connection between mathematics and physics. It has wide applications, particularly in quantum mechanics, analytic number theory, combinatorial analysis, operation theory etc. The $ q $-calculus, which serves as a powerful tool to model quantum computing, has drawn attention of many researchers in the field of special functions and as a result the $ q $-analogues of certain special functions, especially hypergeometric function, 1-variable Hermite polynomials, Appell polynomials etc., are introduced and studied. In this paper, we introduce the 2-variable $ q $-Hermite polynomials by means of generating function. Also, its certain properties like series definition, recurrence relations, $ q $-differential equation and summation formulas are established. The operational definition and some integral representations of these polynomials are obtained. Some examples are also considerd to show the efficacy of the proposed method. Some concluding remarks are given. At the end of this paper, the graphical representations of these polynomials of certain degrees with specified values of $ q $ are given.

A noteworthy advancement within the discipline of q-special function analysis involves the extension of the concept of the monomiality principle to q-special polynomials. This extension helps analyze the quasi-monomiality of many q-special polynomials. This extension is a helpful tool for considering the quasi-monomiality of several q-special polynomials. This study aims to identify and establish the characteristics of the 2-variable q-Hermite–Appell polynomials via an extension of the concept of monomiality. Also, we present some applications that are taken into account.

As a powerful tool for models of quantum computing, q-calculus has drawn the attention of many researchers in the discipline of special functions. In this paper, we present new properties and characterize q-Bessel functions of the first kind using some identities of q-calculus. The results presented in this article help us to obtain new expression results related to q-special functions. New summation and integral representations for q-Bessel functions of the first kind are also established. A few examples are also provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

In this review paper, our aim is to study the current research progress of q-difference equations for generalized Al-Salam–Carlitz polynomials related to theta functions and to give an extension of q-difference equations for q-exponential operators and q-difference equations for Rogers–Szegö polynomials. Then, we continue to generalize certain generating functions for Al-Salam–Carlitz polynomials via q-difference equations. We provide a proof of Rogers formula for general Al-Salam–Carlitz polynomials and obtain transformational identities using q-difference equations. In addition, we gain $U(n+1)$-type generating functions and Ramanujan’s integrals involving general Al-Salam–Carlitz polynomials via q-difference equations. Finally, we derive two extensions of the Andrews–Askey integral via q-difference equations.

In this paper, we introduce the $q$-truncated exponential polynomials by means of the integral form. Certain properties of the $q$-truncated exponential polynomials like series definition, recurrence relations, $q$-differential equations and integral representations are obtained. Also, we introduce the associated $q$-truncated exponential polynomials, higher order $q$-truncated exponential polynomials and higher order associated $q$-truncated exponential polynomials. Furthermore, we obtain their integral forms, generating functions, series definitions, summation and operational formulas.
