Abstract
We provide an explicit expression for the first order -difference system for the Jackson integral of symmetric Selberg type. The -difference system gives a generalization of -analog of contiguous relations for the Gauss hypergeometric function. As a basis of the system we use a set of the symmetric polynomials introduced by Matsuo in his study of the -KZ equation. Our main result is an explicit expression for the coefficient matrix of the -difference system in terms of its Gauss matrix decomposition. We introduce a class of symmetric polynomials called interpolation polynomials, which includes Matsuo's polynomials. By repeated use of three-term relations among the interpolation polynomials we compute the coefficient matrix.
