Abstract
We find the adjoint of the Askey-Wilson divided difference operator with respect to the inner procuct on L2(-1,1,(1-x2)-1/2 dx) defined as a Cauchy principle value and show that the Askey-Wilson polynomials are solutions of a q-Sturm-Liouville problem. From these facts we deduce various properties of the polynomials in a simple and straightforward way. We also provide an operator theoretic description of the Askey-Wilson operator.
