The annihilation operator for certain family of q-Hermite Sobolev-type orthogonal polynomials

Abstract: We present a new family $\left{ S_{n}(x;q)\right} _{n\geq 0}$ of monic polynomials in $x$, orthogonal with respect to a Sobolev-type inner product related to the $q$-Hermite I orthogonal polynomials, involving a first-order $q$-derivative on a mass-point $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ located out of the corresponding orthogonality interval $[-1,1]$, for some fixed real number $q \in (0, 1)$. We present connection formulas, and the annihilation operator for this non-standard orthogonal polynomial family.
