Specializations of Generalized Laguerre Polynomials

Abstract. Three specializations of a set of orthogonal polynomials with "8 different q's" are given. The polynomials are identified as q-analogues of Laguerre polynomials, and the combinatorial interpreation of the moments give infinitely many new Mahonian statistics on permutations.
