Abstract

The aim of this work is to introduce an extension for -standard notations. The -Apostol type polynomials and study some of their properties. Besides, some relations between the mentioned polynomials and some other known polynomials are obtained.

1. Introduction, Preliminaries, and Definitions

Throughout this research we always apply the following notations. indicates the set of natural numbers, indicates the set of nonnegative integers, indicates the set of all real numbers, and denotes the set of complex numbers. We refer the readers to [1] for all the following -standard notations. The -shifted factorial is defined as The -numbers and -factorials are defined by respectively. The -polynomial coefficient is defined by The -analogue of the function is defined by The -binomial formula is known as In the standard approach to the -calculus, two exponential functions are used: As an immediate result of these two definitions, we have .

Recently, Luo and Srivastava [2] introduced and studied the generalized Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials and the generalized Apostol-Euler polynomials . Kurt [3] gave the generalization of the Bernoulli polynomials of order and studied their properties. They also studied these polynomials systematically; see [2, 49]. There are numerous recent investigations on this subject by many other authors; see [3, 1020]. More recently, Tremblay et al. [10] further gave the definition of and studied their properties. On the other hand, Mahmudov and Keleshteri [21, 22] studied various two dimensional -polynomials. Motivated by these papers, we define generalized Apostol type -polynomials as follows.

In this section, we show some basic properties of the generalized -polynomials. We only prove the facts for one of them. Obviously, by applying the similar technique, other ones can be proved.

We take aid of the following identity to prove (21): Therefore, we can write From that we can conclude the following: That is, Substituting (25) into the right hand side of (16), we obtain Thus, from one hand, we can write As we know that we can continue as On the other hand, for , we can write and, as , we have Adding to we obtain Consequently,
