In mathematics, the Rogers–Szegő polynomials are a family of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle introduced by Gábor Szegő, who was inspired by the continuous q-Hermite polynomials studied by Leonard James Rogers. They are given by

where is the descending q-Pochhammer symbol. The Rogers-Szegő polynomials satisfy the recurrence relation

with and .
