We construct a general bi-basic inverse series relation which provides extension to several q-polynomials including the Askey-Wilson polynomials and the q-Racah polynomials. We introduce a general class of polynomials suggested by this general inverse pair which would unify certain polynomials such as the q-extended Jacobi polynomials and q-Konhauser polynomials. We then emphasize on applications of the general inverse pair and obtain the generating function relations, summation formulas involving the associated polynomials and derive the p-deformation of some of the q-analogues of Riordan's classes of inverse series relations. We also illustrate the companion matrix corresponding to the general class of polynomials; this is followed by a chart showing the reducibility of the extended p-deformed Askey-Wilson polynomials as well as the extended p-deformed q-Racah polynomials.

Let ${\mathcal{F}}$ denote an algebraically closed field with characteristic not two. Fix an integer $d{\geq}3$, let $Mat_{d+1}({\mathcal{F}})$ denote the ${\mathcal{F}}$-algebra of $(d+1){\times}(d+1)$ matrices with entries in ${\mathcal{F}}$. An ordered pair of matrices A, $A^*$ in $Mat_{d+1}({\mathcal{F}})$ is said to be LB-TD form whenever A is lower bidiagonal with subdiagonal entries all 1 and $A^*$ is irreducible tridiagonal. Let A, $A^*$ be a Leonard pair in $Mat_{d+1}({\mathcal{F}})$ with fundamental parameter ${\beta}=2$, with this assumption there are four families of Leonard pairs, Racah, Hahn, dual Hahn, Krawtchouk type. In this paper we show from these four families only Racah and Krawtchouk have LB-TD form.
