Abstract:Abstract. The quantum integer [n]q is the polynomial 1 + q + q 2 + · · · + q n−1 , and the sequence of polynomials {[n]q} ∞ n=1 is a solution of the functional equation fmn(q) = fm(q)fn(q m ). In this paper, semidirect products of semigroups are used to produce families of functional equations that generalize the functional equation for quantum multiplication.
Multiplication of quantum integersLet F = {f n (q)} ∞ n=1 be a sequence of functions. We define a binary operation ⊗ on the terms of the sequence F byFo… Show more
