## Abstract

In this contribution, we study the orthogonality conditions satisfied by Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials $$U_n^{(a)}(x;q)$$ when the parameters $$a$$ and $$q$$ are not necessarily real nor ‘classical’. We establish orthogonality on a simple contour in the complex plane which depends on the parameters. In all cases we show that the orthogonality conditions characterize the Al-Salam-Carlitz Polynomials $$U_n^{(a)} (x; q)$$ of degree $$n$$ up to a constant factor. We also obtain a generalization of the unique generating function for these polynomials.
