The function $\mathrm{Cos}_q$ is defined by $$\mathrm{Cos}_q(z)=\dfrac{E_q(iz)+E_q(-iz)}{2},$$ where $E_q$ denotes the $q$-exponential $E$.

Properties

Theorem

The following formula holds: $$E_q(iz)=\mathrm{Cos}_q(z)+i\mathrm{Sin}_q(z),$$ where $E_q$ is the $q$-exponential $E_q$, $\mathrm{Cos}_q$ is the $q$-$\mathrm{Cos}$ function and $\mathrm{Sin}_q$ is the $q$-$\mathrm{Sin}$ function.

Proof
