q-Hypergeometric Orthogonal Polynomials with $q=-1$

We obtain some properties of a class A of q-hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials with $q=-1$, described by a uniform parametrization of the recurrence coefficients. We construct a class C of complementary $-1$ polynomials by means of the Darboux transformation with a shift. We show that our classes contain the Bannai-Ito polynomials and their complementary polynomials and other known $-1$ polynomials. We introduce some new examples of $-1$ polynomials and also obtain matrix realizations of the Bannai-Ito algebra.
