Abstract
AbstractIn this paper, by using the residue method of complex analysis, we obtain a q-analogue for partial-fraction decomposition of the rational function $\frac{x^{M}}{(x+1)^{\lambda}_{n}}$
x
M
(
x
+

)
n
λ
. As applications, we deduce the corresponding q-algebraic and q-combinatorial identities which are the q-extensions of Chu’ results.
