Al-Salam–Carlitz polynomials

The Al-Salam–Carlitz polynomials are given in terms of basic hypergeometric functions by

${\displaystyle U_{n}^{(a)}(x;q)=(-a)^{n}q^{n(n-1)/2}{}_{2}\phi _{1}(q^{-n},x^{-1};0;q,qx/a)}$

${\displaystyle V_{n}^{(a)}(x;q)=(-a)^{n}q^{-n(n-1)/2}{}_{2}\phi _{0}(q^{-n},x;;q,q^{n}/a)}$
