Degenerate Changhee-Genocchi numbers and polynomials

Abstract

In this paper, we study some properties of degenerate Changhee-Genocchi numbers and polynomials and give some new identities of these polynomials and numbers which are derived from the generating function. In particular, we provide interesting identities related to the Changhee-Genocchi polynomials of the second kind and Changhee-Genocchi numbers of the second kind.

1 Introduction

Carlitz first introduced the concept of degenerate numbers and polynomials which are related to Bernoulli and Euler numbers and polynomials (see [1, 2]). After Carlitz introduced the degenerate polynomials, many researchers studied the degenerate polynomials associated with special polynomials in various areas (see [3–20]).

Recently, Kim and Kim gave same new and interesting identities of Changhee numbers and polynomials which are derived from the non-linear differential equation (see [9]). These identities and technical method are very useful for studying some problems which are related to mathematical physics.

As is known, the Genocchi polynomials are defined by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2t}{e^{t}+1}e^{xt} = \sum _{n=0}^{\infty}G_{n}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}\quad \bigl(\text{see [1--25]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(1.1)

When \(x=0\), \(G_{n}=G_{n}(0)\) are called the Genocchi numbers. From (1.1), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned} G_{0}(x) =0,\qquad E_{n}(x) = \frac{G_{n+1}(x)}{n+1}\quad (n \geq0)\quad \bigl(\text{see [16]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$

Here, \(E_{n}(x)\) are ordinary Euler polynomials which are given by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2}{e^{t}+1}e^{xt} = \sum _{n=0}^{\infty}E_{n}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.2)

Recently, the Changhee polynomials have been defined by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2}{t+2}(1+t)^{x} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{Ch}_{n}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}\quad \bigl(\text{see [9, 11--17]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(1.3)

When \(x=0\), \(\mathit{Ch}_{n}=\mathit{Ch}_{n}(0)\) are called the Changhee numbers. From (1.3), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{Ch}_{n}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}&= \frac{2}{e^{\log(1+t)}+1}e^{\log(1+t)x} \\ &= \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}E_{k}(x) \frac{1}{k!} \bigl(\log(1+t) \bigr)^{k} \\ &=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{n} E_{k}(x) S_{1}(n,k) \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}, \end{aligned} $$
(1.4)

where \(S_{1}(n,k)\) is called the Stirling number of the first kind. From (1.4), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned} \mathit{Ch}_{n}(x) = \sum _{k=0}^{n} E_{k}(x) S_{1}(n,k)\quad (n \geq0) \quad\bigl(\text{see [9]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(1.5)

As is well known, the Bernoulli numbers of the second kind are defined by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{t}{\log(1+t)} = \sum _{n=0}^{\infty}b_{n} \frac{t^{n}}{n!}\quad \bigl(\text{see} \text{[24]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(1.6)

From (1.6), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned} \biggl( \frac{t}{\log(1+t)} \biggr)^{r} (1+t)^{x-1} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}B_{n}^{(n-r+1)}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.7)

When \(x=1\) and \(r=1\), we get

$$ \begin{aligned} b_{n} = B_{n}^{(n)}(1)\quad (n \geq0), \end{aligned} $$

where \(B_{n}^{(r)}(x)\) are the higher-order Bernoulli polynomials which are defined by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \biggl( \frac{t}{e^{t}-1} \biggr)^{r} e^{xt} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}B_{n}^{(r)}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}\quad\bigl(\text{see [6, 7, 11]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$

In [17], Changhee-Genocchi polynomials are defined by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2 \log(1+t)}{2+t} (1+t)^{x} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{CG}_{n}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.8)

From (1.8), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \frac{2 \log(1+t)}{2+t} (1+t)^{x} &= \frac{2\log(1+t)}{e^{\log(1+t)}+1} e^{x \log(1+t)} \\ &= \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}G_{k}(x) \frac{1}{k!} \bigl(\log(1+t) \bigr)^{k} \\ &= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{n} G_{k}(x) S_{1}(n,k) \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.9)

By (1.8) and (1.9), we get

$$ \begin{aligned} \mathit{CG}_{n}(x) =\sum _{k=0}^{n} G_{k}(x) S_{1}(n,k) \quad\bigl(\text{see [17, 18]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(1.10)

Now, we consider the modified Changhee-Genocchi polynomials which are given by

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2t}{2+t}(1+t)^{x} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{CG}_{n}^{*} (x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.11)

Now, we observe that

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \frac{2t}{2+t}(1+t)^{x} &= \frac{2t}{e^{\log(1+t)}+1}e^{x\log(1+t)} \\ &= t \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}E_{k}(x) \frac{1}{k!} \bigl(\log(1+t) \bigr)^{k} \\ &= t \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{n} E_{k}(x) S_{1}(n,k) \Biggr) \frac {t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.12)

From (1.11), it is easy to show that \(\mathit{CG}_{0}^{*}(x) =0\). Thus, by (1.11) and (1.12), we get

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{\mathit{CG}_{n+1}^{*} (x)}{n+1} = \sum _{k=0}^{n} E_{k}(x) S_{1}(n,k)\quad (n \geq0). \end{aligned} $$
(1.13)

As is known, the degenerate Euler polynomials were defined by Carlitz [1, 2] to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2}{(1+\lambda t)^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1}(1+\lambda t)^{\frac {x}{\lambda}} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\mathcal{E}_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.14)

Now, we consider the following degenerate Genocchi polynomials which are derived from (1.14):

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2t}{(1+\lambda t)^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1}(1+\lambda t)^{\frac {x}{\lambda}} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}G_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.15)

Thus, by (1.15), we get

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\lim_{\lambda \rightarrow0} G_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!} &= \lim _{\lambda\rightarrow0} \frac{2t}{(1+\lambda t)^{\frac {1}{\lambda}}+1}(1+\lambda t)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}} \\ &= \frac{2t}{e^{t}+1}e^{xt} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}G_{n}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.16)

From (1.15) and (1.16)

$$ \begin{aligned} \lim_{\lambda\rightarrow0} G_{n, \lambda}(x)=G_{n}(x)\quad (n\geq0). \end{aligned} $$
(1.17)

It is not difficult to show that

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \frac{2}{(1+\lambda t)^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1}(1+\lambda t)^{\frac {x}{\lambda}} &= \frac{1}{t} \frac{2t}{(1+\lambda t)^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1}(1+\lambda t)^{\frac {x}{\lambda}} \\ &= \frac{1}{t} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}G_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!} \\ &= \frac{1}{t} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}G_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!} \\ &=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{G_{n+1,\lambda}(x)}{n+1} \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.18)

Therefore, by (1.14) and (1.18), for \(n \geq0\), we get

$$ \begin{aligned} \mathcal{E}_{n,\lambda}(x) = \frac{1}{n+1} G_{n+1,\lambda}(x). \end{aligned} $$

When \(x=0\), \(G_{n,\lambda}= G_{n,\lambda}(0)\) are called the degenerate Genocchi numbers. From (1.15), we have

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] 2t &= \Biggl( \sum _{l=0}^{\infty}G_{l,\lambda} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \bigl(1+ (1+\lambda t)^{\frac{1}{\lambda}} \bigr) \\ &=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}G_{n,\lambda} \frac{t^{n}}{n!} + \Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}G_{l,\lambda} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{m=0}^{\infty}(1|\lambda)_{m} \frac{t^{m}}{m!} \Biggr) \\ &=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\Biggl\{ G_{n,\lambda} + \sum_{l=0}^{n} {n \choose l} G_{l,\lambda} (1|\lambda)_{n-l} \Biggr\} \frac{t^{n}}{n!}, \end{aligned} $$
(1.19)

where \((x|\lambda)_{n} = x(x-\lambda)\cdots(x-(n-1)\lambda)\) (\(n \geq 1\)), \((x|\lambda)_{0}=1\).

By comparing the coefficients on the both sides of (1.19), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} G_{n,\lambda} + \sum _{l=0}^{n} {n \choose l} G_{l,\lambda} (1|\lambda)_{n-l}= \textstyle\begin{cases} 0&\text{if } n=0, \\ 2\delta_{n,1}&\text{if } n=1, \\ 0&\text{if } n>1 . \end{cases}\displaystyle \end{aligned} $$

Note that \(G_{0,\lambda}=0\).

In [17], the degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials are defined by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2\lambda\log(1+ \frac{1}{\lambda}\log (1+\lambda t) ) }{2\lambda+\log(1+\lambda t)} \bigl( 1+ \lambda^{-1}\log(1+\lambda t) \bigr)^{x} = \sum _{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.20)

From (1.8) and (1.20), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned} \lim_{\lambda \rightarrow0} \mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}(x) = \mathit{CG}_{n}(x)\quad (n \geq 0 )\quad\bigl( \text{see [17]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(1.21)

The modified degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials are considered by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2t\lambda}{2\lambda+\log(1+\lambda t)} \bigl(1+ \lambda^{-1}\log (1+\lambda t) \bigr)^{x} = \sum _{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}^{*}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.22)

Note that \(\lim_{\lambda\rightarrow0} \mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}^{*}(x) = \mathit{CG}_{n}^{*}(x)\) (\(n \geq0\)).

As is known, the degenerate Changhee polynomials are given by

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2}{2+\lambda^{-1}\log(1+\lambda t)} \bigl( 1+ \lambda^{-1}\log (1+\lambda t) \bigr)^{x} = \sum _{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{Ch}_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac {t^{n}}{n!} \quad\bigl(\text{see [8]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(1.23)

From (1.22) and (1.23), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} \mathit{Ch}_{n,\lambda}(x) = \frac{1}{n+1} \mathit{CG}_{n+1,\lambda}^{*} (x)\quad (n \geq0). \end{aligned} $$
(1.24)

When \(x=0\), \(\mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}^{*} = \mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}^{*}(0)\) are called the modified degenerate Changhee-Genocchi numbers. From (1.22), for \(x=0\), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] 2t &= \bigl( 2+\lambda^{-1} \log(1+\lambda t) \bigr) \Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}\mathit{CG}_{l,\lambda}^{*} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \\ &= \Biggl( 2+ \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{k-1} \lambda^{k-1}}{k} t^{k} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{l=0}^{\infty}\mathit{CG}_{l,\lambda}^{*} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\Biggl( 2\mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}^{*} + \sum_{k=1}^{n} {n \choose k} (k-1)! (-1)^{k-1} \lambda^{k-1} \mathit{CG}_{n-k,\lambda}^{*} \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.25)

Comparing the coefficients on the both sides of (1.25), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} 2\mathit{CG}_{n,\lambda}^{*} + \sum _{k=1}^{n} {n \choose k} (k-1)! (-1)^{k-1} \lambda^{k-1} \mathit{CG}_{n-k,\lambda}^{*} = 2 \delta_{n,1}, \end{aligned} $$
(1.26)

where \(\delta_{n,k}\) is the Kronecker delta symbol. In the viewpoint of (1.8), we consider the following partially degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials which are derived from (1.20):

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2\lambda\log(1+t)}{2\lambda+\log(1+\lambda t)} \bigl(1+\lambda ^{-1}\log(1+\lambda t) \bigr)^{x} = \sum _{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{PCG}_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.27)

When \(x=0\), \(\mathit{PCG}_{n,\lambda}=\mathit{PCG}_{n,\lambda}(0)\) are called the partially degenerate Changhee-Genocchi numbers. Note that \(\lim_{\lambda \rightarrow0}\mathit{PCG}_{n,\lambda}(x) = \mathit{CG}_{n}(x)\) (\(n \geq0\)).

From (1.27), for \(x=0\), we note that

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] 2\log(1+t) &= \bigl( 2+ \lambda^{-1}\log(1+\lambda t) \bigr) \Biggl( \sum _{l=0}^{\infty}\mathit{PCG}_{l,\lambda} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \\ &=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\Biggl( 2\mathit{PCG}_{n,\lambda} + \sum_{k=1}^{n} (-1)^{k-1} \lambda^{k-1} (k-1)! {n \choose k} \mathit{PCG}_{n-k,\lambda} \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(1.28)

Thus, by (1.28), we get

$$ \begin{aligned} 2\mathit{PCG}_{n,\lambda} + \sum _{k=1}^{n} (-1)^{k-1} \lambda^{k-1} (k-1)! {n \choose k} \mathit{PCG}_{n-k,\lambda} = 2 (-1)^{n-1} (n-1)!, \end{aligned} $$
(1.29)

where \(n=1,2,3,\ldots \) .

In this paper, we study the degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials and numbers of the second kind which are different from previous degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials and numbers. In addition, we give some new identities from our numbers and polynomials.

2 Changhee-Genocchi numbers and polynomials of the second kind

First, we consider the Changhee-Genocchi polynomials of the second kind which are given by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2\log(1+t)}{ (1+\lambda\log(1+t) )^{\frac{1}{\lambda }}+1} \bigl(1+\lambda \log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}}= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}J_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(2.1)

Thus, by (1.8) and (2.1), we get

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\lim_{\lambda\rightarrow0} J_{n,\lambda} (x) \frac {t^{n}}{n!} &= \frac{2\log(1+t)}{2+t} (1+t)^{x} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\mathit{CG}_{n}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(2.2)

By comparing the coefficient on the both sides, we get

$$ \begin{aligned} \mathit{CG}_{n}(x) = \lim _{\lambda\rightarrow0} J_{n,\lambda} (x)\quad (n \geq0). \end{aligned} $$
(2.3)

When \(x=0\), \(J_{n,\lambda}= J_{n,\lambda}(0)\) are called the Changhee-Genocchi numbers of the second kind.

From (2.1) and (2.3), we note that

$$\begin{aligned}& \frac{2\log(1+t)}{ (1+\lambda\log(1+t) )^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1 } \bigl(1+\lambda \log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}} \\& \quad= \bigl(\log(1+t) \bigr) \Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}\mathcal {E}_{l,\lambda}(x) \frac{1}{l!} \bigl( \log(1+t) \bigr)^{l} \Biggr) \\& \quad= \bigl(\log(1+t) \bigr) \Biggl( \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{k} \mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x) S_{1}(k,l) \Biggr) \frac{t^{k}}{k!} \Biggr) \\& \quad= \Biggl( \sum_{m=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{m-1}}{m} t^{m} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{k} \mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x) S_{1}(k,l) \Biggr) \frac{t^{k}}{k!} \Biggr) \\& \quad= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{n-1} \sum_{l=0}^{k} \frac {(-1)^{n-k-1}n! \mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x)}{(n-k) k!} S_{1}(k,l) \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!} \end{aligned}$$
(2.4)

and

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] &\frac{2\log(1+t)}{ (1+\lambda\log(1+t) )^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1 } \bigl(1+\lambda \log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}} \\ &\quad= \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}\mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x) \frac{1}{l!} \bigl( \log (1+t) \bigr)^{l+1} \\ &\quad= \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}\mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x) (l+1) \frac{1}{(l+1)!} \bigl( \log(1+t) \bigr)^{l+1} \\ &\quad= \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}\mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x) (l+1) \sum_{n=l+1}^{\infty}S_{1}(n,l+1) \frac{t^{n}}{n!} \\ &\quad= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{l=0}^{n-1} \mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda }(x) (l+1) S_{1}(n,l+1) \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}, \end{aligned} $$
(2.5)

where \(S_{1}(n,k)\) is the Stirling number of the first kind. By (2.1), (2.4) and (2.5), we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 2.1

For \(n \geq1\), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} J_{n,\lambda}(x) = \sum _{k=0}^{n-1} \sum_{l=0}^{k} \frac {(-1)^{n-k-1}n!}{(n-k) k!} \mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x)S_{1}(k,l) \end{aligned} $$

and

$$ \begin{aligned} J_{n,\lambda}(x) = \sum _{l=0}^{n-1} \mathcal{E}_{l,\lambda}(x) (l+1) S_{1}(n,l+1) . \end{aligned} $$

By replacing t by \(e^{t}-1\) in (2.1), we get

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \frac{2t}{(1+\lambda t)^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1} (1+\lambda t)^{\frac {x}{\lambda}} &= \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}J_{k,\lambda}(x) \frac{1}{k!} \bigl(e^{t}-1 \bigr)^{k} \\ &= \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}J_{k,\lambda}(x) \sum _{n=k}^{\infty}S_{2}(n,k) \frac {t^{n}}{n!} \\ &= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{n} J_{k,\lambda}(x) S_{2}(n,k) \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}, \end{aligned} $$
(2.6)

where \(S_{2}(n,k)\) is the Stirling number of the second kind. Therefore, by (1.15) and (2.6), we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 2.2

For \(n \geq0\), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} G_{n,\lambda}(x) = \sum _{k=0}^{n} J_{k,\lambda}(x) S_{2}(n,k). \end{aligned} $$

From (2.1), we have

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] 2\log(1+t)&= \Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{\infty}J_{k,\lambda} \frac{t^{k}}{k!} \Biggr) \bigl( \bigl(1+ \lambda \log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1 \bigr) \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}J_{n,\lambda} \frac{t^{n}}{n!} + \Biggl( \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}J_{n,\lambda} \frac{t^{n}}{n!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{l=0}^{\infty}(1|\lambda)_{l} \frac{1}{l!} \bigl( \log(1+t) \bigr)^{l} \Biggr) \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}J_{n,\lambda} \frac{t^{n}}{n!} + \Biggl( \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}J_{n,\lambda} \frac{t^{n}}{n!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{m=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{m} (1|\lambda)_{l} S_{1}(m,l) \Biggr) \frac {t^{m}}{m!} \Biggr) \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}J_{n,\lambda} \frac{t^{n}}{n!} + \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum_{m=0}^{n-1} \sum _{l=0}^{m} {n \choose m} (1| \lambda)_{l} S_{1}(m,l) J_{n-m,\lambda} \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!} \\ &= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\Biggl\{ J_{n,\lambda} + \sum_{m=0}^{n-1} \sum _{l=0}^{m} {n \choose m} (1|\lambda )_{l} S_{1}(m,l) J_{n-m,\lambda} \Biggr\} \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(2.7)

It is easy to show that

$$ \begin{aligned} 2\log(1+t) = 2\sum _{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n} t^{n} = 2 \sum _{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n-1} (n-1)! \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(2.8)

Therefore, by (2.7) and (2.8), we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 2.3

For \(n \geq1\), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} J_{n,\lambda} + \sum_{m=0}^{n-1} \sum_{l=0}^{m} {n \choose m} (1| \lambda )_{l} S_{1}(m,l) J_{n-m,\lambda} = 2(-1)^{n-1}(n-1)!. \end{aligned} $$

The degenerate Changhee polynomials of the second kind are also defined by the generating function to be

$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{2}{ (1+\lambda\log(1+t) )^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1 } \bigl(1+\lambda \log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}C_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}\quad\bigl(\text{see [8]}\bigr). \end{aligned} $$
(2.9)

Now, we observe that

$$\begin{aligned}& \frac{2}{ (1+\lambda\log(1+t) )^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1 } \bigl(1+\lambda \log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}} \\& \quad= \frac{1}{t} \biggl( \frac{t}{\log(1+t)} \biggr) \biggl( \frac{2\log (1+t)}{ (1+\lambda\log(1+t) )^{\frac{1}{\lambda}}+1} \bigl(1+\lambda\log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}} \biggr) \\& \quad= \frac{1}{t} \Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}b_{l} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty}J_{m,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{m}}{m!} \Biggr) \\& \quad= \Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}b_{l} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum_{m=0}^{\infty}\frac{J_{m+1,\lambda}(x)}{m+1} \frac{t^{m}}{m!} \Biggr) \\& \quad= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{m=0}^{n} {n \choose m} \frac {J_{m+1,\lambda}(x)}{m+1} b_{n-m} \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned}$$
(2.10)

By comparing the coefficients on the both sides of (2.9) and (2.10), we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 2.4

For \(n \geq0\), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} C_{n,\lambda}(x) = \sum _{m=0}^{n} {n \choose m} \frac{J_{m+1,\lambda }(x)}{m+1} b_{n-m}. \end{aligned} $$

From (2.1), we easily note that

$$ \begin{aligned}[b] \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}J_{n,\lambda}(x) \frac{t^{n}}{n!} &= \frac{2\log(1+t)}{ (1+\lambda\log(1+t) )^{\frac{1}{\lambda }}+1 } \bigl(1+\lambda \log(1+t) \bigr)^{\frac{x}{\lambda}} \\ &= \Biggl( \sum_{l=0}^{\infty}J_{l,\lambda} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum_{m=0}^{\infty}\biggl( \frac{x}{\lambda} \biggr)_{m} \lambda^{m} \frac {1}{m!} \bigl(\log(1+t) \bigr)^{m} \Biggr) \\ &= \Biggl( \sum_{m=0}^{\infty}(x| \lambda)_{m} \sum_{k=m}^{\infty}S_{1}(k,m) \frac{t^{k}}{k!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{l=0}^{\infty}J_{l,\lambda} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \\ &= \Biggl( \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{m=0}^{k} (x|\lambda)_{m} S_{1}(k,m) \Biggr) \frac{t^{k}}{k!} \Biggr) \Biggl( \sum _{l=0}^{\infty}J_{l,\lambda} \frac{t^{l}}{l!} \Biggr) \\ &=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\Biggl( \sum _{k=0}^{n} \sum_{m=0}^{k} {n \choose k} (x|\lambda)_{m} S_{1}(k,m) J_{n-k,\lambda} \Biggr) \frac{t^{n}}{n!}. \end{aligned} $$
(2.11)

Therefore, by comparing the coefficients on the both sides of (2.11), we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 2.5

For \(n \geq0\), we have

$$ \begin{aligned} J_{n,\lambda}(x) = \sum _{k=0}^{n} \sum_{m=0}^{k} {n \choose k} (x|\lambda )_{m} S_{1}(k,m) J_{n-k,\lambda}. \end{aligned} $$

3 Conclusions

Kwon et al. [17] introduced the degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials and numbers. In this study, we defined the modified degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials and numbers (see (1.22)) and obtained an interesting identity (1.26) of the modified degenerate Changhee-Genocchi numbers. Secondly, we defined the partially degenerate Changhee-Genocchi polynomials and numbers (see (1.27)). We obtained a useful identity (1.29) of the partially degenerate Changhee-Genocchi numbers (1.29). Finally, we defined the Changhee-Genocchi polynomials of the second kind (see (2.1)). We provided useful identities related to the Changhee-Genocchi polynomials of the second kind and the degenerate Euler polynomials (see Theorem 2.1). Furthermore, we obtained some interesting identities of the Changhee-Genocchi polynomials of the second kind (see Theorem 2.2, Theorem 2.3, Theorem 2.4 and Theorem 2.5).
