    Abstract

    In this paper, we study the finite dimensional unitary representations of the quantum group SUq(2). Then we obtain the Peter-Weyl theorem for SUq(2) and the matrix elements of these unitary representations are explicitly expressed in terms of the little q-Jacobi polynomials which are known as q-analogues of orthogonal polynomials. Using these expressions, the orthogonality relations of these polynomials are obtained in terms of the Haar measure on the quantum group SUq(2).
