The Universal Askey-Wilson Algebra

In 1992 A. Zhedanov introduced the Askey-Wilson algebra AW=AW(3) and used it to describe the Askey-Wilson polynomials. In this paper we introduce a central extension Δ of AW, obtained from AW by reinterpreting certain parameters as central elements in the algebra. We call Δ the universal Askey-Wilso...
