### Note on a $q$-Contour Integral Formula of Gasper-Rahman

Jian-Ping Fang

#### Abstract

We use the $q$-Chu-Vandermonde formula and transformation technique to derive a more general $q$-integral equation given by Gasper and Rahman, which involves the Cauchy polynomial. In addition, some applications of the general formula are presented in this paper.
