Abstract
We firstly consider the fully degenerate Gould–Hopper polynomials with a q parameter and investigate some of their properties including difference rule, inversion formula and addition formula. We then introduce the Gould–Hopper-based fully degenerate poly-Bernoulli polynomials with a q parameter and provide some of their diverse basic identities and properties including not only addition property, but also difference rule properties. By the same way of mentioned polynomials, we define the Gould–Hopper-based fully degenerate -Stirling polynomials of the second kind, and then give many relations. Moreover, we derive multifarious correlations and identities for foregoing polynomials and numbers, including recurrence relations and implicit summation formulas.

1. Introduction
Special functions possess a lot of importances in numerous fields of mathematics, physics, engineering and other related disciplines covering different topics such as differential equations, mathematical analysis, functional analysis, mathematical physics, quantum mechanics and so on. Particularly, the family of special polynomials is one of the most useful, widespread and applicable family of special functions. Some of the most considerable polynomials in the theory of special polynomials are Bernoulli polynomails (see [1,2]) and the generalized Hermite–Kampé de Fériet (or Gould–Hopper) polynomials (see [3]). Recently, aforementioned polynomials and their diverse extensions have been studied and developed by lots of physicsics and mathematicians, see [1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18] and references cited therein. Araci et al. [4] considered a novel concept of the Apostol Hermite-Genocchi polynomials by using the modified Milne–Thomson’s polynomials and obtained several implicit summation formulae and general symmetric identities arising from different analytical means and generating functions method. Bretti et al. [6] gave multidimensional extensions of the Bernoulli and Appell polynomials by utilizing the Hermite–Kampé de Fériet polynomials and provided the differential equations, satisfing by the corresponding polynomials, acquired from exploiting the factorization method. Bayad et al. [5] considered poly-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers and proved a collection of extremely important and fundamental identities satisfied by them. Cenkci et al. [7] handled poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials with a q parameter and investigated several aritmetical and number theoretical properties. Dattoli et al. [9] applied the method of generating function to define novel forms of Bernoulli numbers and polynomials, which were exploited to get further classes of partial sums including generalized numerous index many variable polynomials. Khan et al. [11,12] defined the Hermite poly-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers of the second kind and the degenerate Hermite poly-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers and analyzed many of their applications in combinatorics, number theory and other fields of mathematics. Kim et al. [13,14,15] dealt with the several degenerate poly-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers. Kurt et al. [16] studied on the Hermite–Kampé de Fériet based second kind Genocchi polynomials and presented diverse relationships for them. Ozarslan [19] introduced an unified family of Hermite-based Apostol–Bernoulli, Euler and Genocchi polynomials and then attained some symmetry identities between these polynomials and the generalized sum of integer powers. Ozarslan also provided explicit closed-form formulae for this unified family and proved a finite series relation between this unification and -Hermite polynomials. Pathan [20] presented a new class of generalized Hermite–Bernoulli polynomials and emerged multifarious implicit summation formulae and symmetric identities by using different analytical means appying generating functions. Pathan et al. [21] introduced a new class of generalized polynomials associated with the modified Milne–Thomson’s polynomials of degree n and order and provided some of their properties.
In this paper, the usual notations , , , and are referred to the set of all complex numbers, the set of all real numbers, the set of all integers, the set of all natural numbers and the set of all nonnegative integers, respectively.
An outline of this paper is as follows. Section 2 covers the rudiments and some basic symbols and operators. Section 3 deals with the fully degenerate Gould–Hopper polynomials with a q parameter. Section 4 mainly analyzes the Gould–Hopper-based fully degenerate poly-Bernoulli polynomials with a q parameter and provides the several properties for these polynomials. Section 5 gives the definition of the Gould–Hopper-based fully degenerate -Stirling numbers of the second kind and provides some relations for these numbers. Finally, we derive multifarious correlations and formulas including the fully degenerate Gould–Hopper polynomials with a q parameter, the Gould–Hopper-based fully degenerate poly-Bernoulli polynomials with a q parameter and the Gould–Hopper-based fully degenerate -Stirling numbers of the second kind.
