1. Introduction
In literature, the Fibonacci and Lucas numbers have been studied extensively and some authors tried to enhance and derive some directions to mathematical calculations using these special numbers [,,]. By favour of the Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, one of these directions verges on the tribonacci and the tribonacci-Lucas numbers. In fact, M. Feinberg in 1963 has introduced the tribonacci numbers and then derived some properties for these numbers in [,,,]. Elia in [] has given and investigated the tribonacci-Lucas numbers. The tribonacci numbers for any integer are defined via the following recurrence relation
with the initial values , and Similarly, by way of the initial values , and the tribonacci-Lucas numbers are given by the recurrence relation
By dint of the above extensions, the tribonacci and tribonacci-Lucas numbers are introduced with the help of the following generating functions, respectively:
and
Moreover, some authors define a large class of polynomials by using the Fibonacci and the tribonacci numbers [,,,]. Firstly, the well-known Fibonacci polynomials are defined via the recurrence relation
with . The well-known Lucas polynomials are defined with the help of the recurrence relation
with .
Fibonacci or Fibonacci-like polynomials have been studied by many mathematicians for many years. Recently, in [], Kim et al. kept in mind the sums of finite products of Fibonacci polynomials and of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind and obtained Fourier series expansions of functions related to them. In [], Kim et al. studied the convolved Fibonacci numbers by using the generating functions of them and gave some new identities for the convolved Fibonacci numbers. In [], Wang and Zhang studied some sums of powers Fibonacci polynomials and Lucas polynomials. In [], Wu and Zhang obtained the several new identities involving the Fibonacci polynomials and Lucas polynomials.
Afterwards, by giving the Pell and Jacobsthal polynomials, in 1973, Hoggatt and Bicknell [] introduced the tribonacci polynomials. The tribonacci polynomials are defined by the recurrence relation for
where , and . The tribonacci-Lucas polynomials are defined by the recurrence relation for
where , and , respectively. Here we note that which is the tribonacci numbers and which is the tribonacci-Lucas numbers. Also for these polynomials, we have the generating function as follows:
and
On the other hand, some authors try to define the second and third variables of these polynomials with the help of these numbers. For example [], for integer the recurrence relations of the trivariate Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials are as follows:
with and
with , respectively. Also for these, we have the generating functions as follows:
and
After that, Ozdemir and Simsek [] give the family of two-variable polynomials, reducing some well-known polynomials and obtaining some properties of these polynomials. In light of these polynomials, we introduce the families of three-variable polynomials with the new generalized polynomials reduced to the generating functions of the famous polynomials and numbers in literature. Then, we obtain the explicit representations and partial differential equations for new polynomials. The special cases of our polynomials are given in tables. Also the last section, we give the interesting applications of these polynomials.
2. The New Generalized Polynomials: Definitions and Properties
Now, we introduce the original and wide generating functions reduce the well-known polynomials and the well-known numbers such as the trivariate Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials, the tribonacci and the tribonacci-Lucas polynomials, the tribonacci and the tribonacci-Lucas numbers, and so on.
Firstly, some properties of these functions are investigated. Then, in the case of the new generating function, we give some properties the particular well-known polynomials as tables.
Via the following generating functions, a new original and wide family of three-variable polynomials denoted by is defined as follows:
where and . Now we derive the explicit representation for polynomials . By means of Taylor series of the generating function of the right hand side of (13), we can write
After that, using the binomial expansion and taking instead of we get
Lastly, using the expansion of taking instead of taking instead of j and taking instead of respectively, we have
Thus after the equalization of coefficients of we obtain
Note that for our polynomials reduces to the polynomials Equation (4) [].
Remark 1.
As a similar to Theorem 2.3 in [], we can write the following relation
where are the Legendre polynomials.
To obtain other wide family of well-known polynomials, we define the second new generating function for the family of the polynomials as follows
where and Similarly for our polynomials reduces to the polynomials in (5) in []. Now we give some special case. Firstly taking in (15), we give the generating function
where , which are trivariate Fibonacci polynomials in (11). Secondly, writing and , we have the generating function
where which are the tribonacci polynomials in (7). In the above generating function, for we find the generating function of the tribonacci numbers in (3). Now, we give other special cases as the following table related to (15).
Now, we define a new family of the polynomials denoted by via the generating function
where , and are arbitrary polynomials depending on and . Thirdly, via (16), we give
where are the trivariate Lucas polynomials in (12). Due to the last equation, we have the polynomial representation
In (17) substituting , , we get

5. Conclusions
In the present paper, we considered the families of three-variable polynomials with the generalized polynomials reduce to generating function of the polynomials and numbers in the literature. In Section 2, we gave special polynomials and numbers as the tables related to (15) and (16). Then we obtained the explicit representations and partial differential equations for new polynomials. In the last section, we gave the interesting sum identities related to the well-known numbers and polynomials in the literature.
For all of the resuts, if the appropriate values given in the tables are taken, many infinite sums including various polynomials are obtained.
In recent years, some authors use the well-known polynomials and numbers in the applications of ordinary and fractional differential equations and difference equations (for example [,,,]). Therefore, our new families of three variables polynomials could been used for future works of some application areas such as mathematical modelling, physics, engineering, and applied sciences.
