We study the condition on expanding an analytic several variables function in terms of products of the homogeneous generalized Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials. As applications, we deduce bilinear generating functions for the homogeneous generalized Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials. We also gain multilinear generating functions for the homogeneous generalized Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials. Moreover, we obtain generalizations of Andrews-Askey integrals and Ramanujan $q$-beta integrals. At last, we derive $U(n+1)$...

In the paper we discuss the following type congruences: $$\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{n{p}^k}{m{p}^k}\right)\equiv \left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{m}{n}\right)(mod{p}^r),$$ where $p$ is a prime, $n$, $m$, $k$ and $r$ are various positive integers with $n\ge m\ge 1$, $k\ge 1$ and $r\ge 1$. Given positive integers $k$ and $r$, denote by $W(k,r)$ the set of all primes $p$ such that the above congruence holds for every pair of integers $n\ge m\ge 1$. Using Ljunggren’s and Jacobsthal’s type congruences, we establish several characterizations of sets $W(k,r)$ and inclusion relations between them for various values $k$ and $r$. In particular, we prove that $W(k+i,r)=W(k-1,r)$ for all $k\ge 2$, $i\ge 0$ and $3\le r\le 3k$, and $W(k,r)=W(1,r)$ for...

Let ${\Phi }_n\left(q\right)$ denote the $n$th cyclotomic polynomial in $q$. Recently, Guo, Schlosser and Zudilin proved that for any integer $n>1$ with $n\equiv 1(mod4)$, $$\sum _{k=0}^{n-1}\frac{{(q^{-1};q^2)}_k^2{(q^{-2};q^4)}_k}{{(q^2;q^2)}_k^2{(q^4;q^4)}_k}{q}^{6k}\equiv 0(mod{\Phi }_n{\left(q\right)}^2),$$ where ${(a;q)}_m=(1-a)(1-aq)\cdots (1-a{q}^{m-1})$. In this note, we give a generalization of the above $q$-congruence to the modulus ${\Phi }_n{\left(q\right)}^3$ case. Meanwhile, we give a corresponding $q$-congruence modulo ${\Phi }_n{\left(q\right)}^2$ for $n\equiv 3(mod4)$. Our proof is based on the ‘creative microscoping’ method, recently developed by Guo and Zudilin, and a ${}_4{\varphi }_3$ summation formula.
