Abstract
In this paper, we consider the degenerate Cauchy numbers of the second kind were defined by Kim (2015). By using modified polyexponential functions, first introduced by Kim-Kim (2019), we define the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials and numbers of the second kind and investigate some identities and relationship between various polynomials and the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind. Using this as a basis of further research, we define the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind and illustrate their important identities.
1. Introduction
We first introduce the Cauchy polynomials (or the Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind) derived from the integral as follows (see References [1,2,3,4]):
When , are called the Cauchy numbers. The Daehee polynomial was defined by Kim as the following generating function (see References [5,6,7,8,9,10]):
When , are called the Daehee numbers. Kim [2] defined the degenerate Cauchy polynomials as follows:
When , are the degenerate Cauchy numbers. The degenerate Cauchy polynomials of the second kind are introduced by Kim to be (see References [11,12,13]):
When , are called the degenerate Cauchy polynomials of the second kind. Here, we note that a major study is to define these polynomials formal with more interesting conditions. From now on, we introduce the following polynomials studied by many researchers to find the identity and relationship between the various polynomials and new defined polynomials. Pyo-Kim-Kim defined the degenerate Cauchy polynomials of the third kind as follows: (see References [11,12,13]):
and also defined the degenerate Cauchy polynomials of the fourth kind as follows (see References [14,15,16]):
Let us introduce the following numbers to find the identity and relationship between various polynomials and new defined polynomials. It is well known that the Stirling numbers of the first kind are defined by (see References [3,11,17,18]):
where , . From (7), it is easy to see that (see References [3,17]):
In the inverse expression to (7), for , the Stirling numbers of the second kind are defined by (see References [4,6,19,20,21,22,23,24]):
In this paper, we consider the degenerate Cauchy numbers of the second kind were defined by Kim (2015). By using modified polyexponential functions, first introduced by Kim-Kim (2019), we define the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials and numbers of the second kind and investigate some identities and relationship between various polynomials and the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind. Using this as a basis of further research, we define the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind and illustrate their important identities.
2. The Degenerate Poly-Cauchy Polynomials of the Second Kind
For , it is well known that the polylogarithm function is defined by a power series in x to be (see References [8,18,19,26]):
The polyexponential function was first studied by Hardy and then the polyexponential function modified by Kim-Kim was studied (see Reference [15]). Recently, Kim-Kim [19] considered the polyexponential function in the view of an inverse type of the polylogarithm function to be
In (12), when , we get . By using the modified polyexponential function, they also introduced type 2 poly-Bernoulli polynomials and unipoly-Bernoulli polynomials [19].
In the same motivation of type 2 poly-Bernoulli polynomials arising from modified polyexponential function, we define the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind as follows:
When , are called the degenerate poly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind. For , by (12), we note that
Therefore, by (15), we obtain the following theorem which is an identity between the Stirling numbers of the first kind and the degenerate poly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind.
Theorem 1.
For , , we have
Let us take . From (16), we get a very interesting recurrence relation as follows.
In Reference [19], it is well known that
It is well known that
The above formula is very important and is used at the core of finding the relational formula. From (14), (19), and (20), we can find the following relational formula.
Let us take . Then we can find a clearer case relationship in Equation (21)
Therefore, by (22), we found an identity equation that could calculate the degenerate poly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind from the degenerate Cauchy numbers of the second kind when k = 2 as the following theorem.
Theorem 2.
Let . Then we have
From (13), we observe that
By comparing the coefficients on both sides of (24), we found an recurrence relation between the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind as the following theorem.
Theorem 3.
Let and . Then we have
3. The Degenerate Unipoly-Cauchy Polynomials of the Second Kind
Let be any arithmetic function which is a real or complex valued function defined on the set of positive integers . Then Kim-Kim [19] defined the unipoly function attached to p by

and
By using (26), we define the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind as follows:
When , are called the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind. Let us take . Then we have
Thus, by (31), we have the following theorem.
Theorem 4.
Let and , and be the Gamma function. Then, we have
From (30), we get
Therefore, by comparing the coefficients on both sides of (33), we found an recurrence relation between the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind as the following theorem.
Theorem 5.
Let and . Then we have
In particular,
From (30), we observe that
From (36), we found an recurrence relation between the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind as the following theorem.
Theorem 6.
Let and . Then we have
From (30), we observe that
By comparing coefficients on both sides of (38), we obtain the following theorem which is a relationship between Daehee numbers and the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind.
Theorem 7.
Let and . Then we have
4. Conclusions
In 2019 Kim-Kim considered the polyexponential functions and poly-Bernoulli polynomials and Kim [2] introduced the degenerate Cauchy numbers of the second kind. In the same view as these functions and polynomials, we defined the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind Equation (13) and obtained some identities of the degenerate poly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind (Theorems 1 and 2 ). In particular, we obtained an identity of the degenerate poly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind in Theorem 3. Furthermore, by using the unipoly functions, we defined the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind Equation (30) and obtained some properties of the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind (Theorems 4 and 5). Finally, we obtained an identity of the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy polynomials of the second kind in Theorem 6 and gave the identity indicating the relationship of the degenerate unipoly-Cauchy numbers of the second kind and the Daehee numbers and degenerate Cauchy numbers of the second kind in Theorem 7. In Bayad-Hamahata studied the multi-poly-Bernoulli polynomials [27], defined in analogy with the poly-case, using instead the multiple polylogarithm functions. In addition, as a good application of the results of this paper, we would recommend readers to see to references [28,29,30].
