On Continuous Limiting Behaviour for the q n-Binomial Distribution with 1 q n as n

Recently, Kyriakoussis and Vamvakari [1] have established a q-analogue of the Stirling type for q-constant which have lead them to the proof of the pointwise convergence of the q-binomial distribution to a Stieltjes-Wigert continuous distribution. In the present article, assuming a sequence of n with   q n   1 q n  as n , the study of the affect of this assumption to the -analogue of the Stirling type and to the asymptotic behaviour of the -Binomial distribution is presented. Specifically, a analogue of the Stirling type is provided which leads to the proof of deformed Gaussian limiting behaviour for the    q n   q n   q n   q n -Binomial distribution. Further, figures using the program MAPLE are presented, indicating the accuracy of the established distribution convergence even for moderate values of n.


Introduction and Preliminaries
In last years, many authors have studied -analogues of the binomial distribution (see among others [2][3][4]).Specifically, Kemp and Kemp [3] defined a -analogue of the binomial distribution with probability function in the form (1)   where 0, 0 1, q     by replacing the loglinear relationship for the Bernoulli probabilities in Poissonian random sampling with loglinear odds relationship.Also, Kemp [4] defined (1) as a steady state distribution of birth-abort-death process.

is a geometrically decreasing sequence with rate q, de-rived that the probability function of the number X of successes up to n-trail is the q-analogue of the binomial distribution with p.f. given by Equation (1).For q constant, the q-binomial distribution has finite mean and variance when .Thus, the asymptotic normality in the sense of the DeMoivre-Laplace classical limit theorem did not conclude, as in the case of ordinary hypergeometric series discrete distributions.Also, asymptotic methods-central or/and local limit theorems-are not applied as in Bender [5], Canfield [6], Flajolet and Soria [7], Odlyzko [8] Recently, Kyriakoussis and Vamvakari [1], for q constant, established a limit theorem for the q-binomial distribution by a pointwise convergence in a q-analogue sense of the DeMoivre-Laplace classical limit theorem.Specifically, the pointwise convergence of the q-binomial distribution to a Stieltjes-Wigert continuous distribution was proved.In detail, transferred from the random variable X of the q-binomial distribution (1) to the equal-distributed deformed random variable   1 q , then, for the q-binomial distribution was approximated by a deformed standardized continuous Stieltjes-Wigert distribution as follows where , 0,1,2, with constant and q 0 a  1  and 2 q  the mean value and variance of the random variable respectively.To obtain the above pointwise convergence (2), a qanalogue of the well known Stirling formula for the factorial has been provided.
In statistical mechanics and in computer science such as in probabilistic and approximation algorithms, applications of the -binomial distribution involve sequences of independent Bernoulli trials where in the geometrically decreasing odds of success at the th trial, the rate is considered to be a sequence of with as .n In this work, under this consideration, a question arises.How this assumption affects the continuous limiting behaviour of this q-binomial distribution?
The answer to this question is given in this manuscript by establishing a deformed Gaussian limiting behaviour for the -Binomial distribution is proved.The proofs are concentrated on the study of the sequence   q n   q n and the parameters of the considered distribution as sequences of .Further, figures using the program MAPLE are presented, indicating the accuracy of the established distribution convergence even for moderate values of .n n

An Asymptotic Expansion of the q(n)-Factorial Number of Order n with as
To initiate our study we need to derive an asymptotic expansion for of the q-factorial number of order where with as and , the q-number t.
The derived estimate for the -factorial numbers of order , is based on the analysis of the -Exponential function which is the ordinary generating function (g.f.) of the where because of the large dominant singularities of the generating function   q E x , a well suited method for analyzing this is the saddle point method.
Using an approach of the saddle point method inspired from [9][10][11][12] and [1], the following theorem gives an asymptotic for the   q n -factorial number of order n.Theorem 1.The q-factorial numbers of order , where is a positive integer, is the real solution of the equation the partial Bell polynomials, the Stirling numbers of the second kind and .

It turns out that it is convenient to switch to polar coordinates, setting e i x r   .Then the original integral becomes In accordance with the saddle point method principles, we choose the radius to be the solution of r where and where The absence of a linear term in  indicates a saddle point.The function is unimodal with its peak at 0   .
