Identities for the Euler polynomials, $p$-adic integrals and Witt's formula

Published 2 Jun 2021 in math.NT and math.CO | (2106.01119v1)

Abstract: By using Cauchy's formula, it is known that Bernoulli numbers and Euler numbers can be represented by the contour integrals \begin{equation*} \begin{aligned} B_n&=\frac{n!}{2\pi i}\oint \frac{z}{ez-1}\frac{d z}{z{n+1}},\label{condefi}\[4pt] E_n&=\frac{n!}{2\pi i}\oint \frac{2ez}{e{2z}+1}\frac{d z}{z{n+1}}, \end{aligned} \end{equation*} while the following Witt's formula represents Euler polynomials through the fermionic $p$-adic integrals $$E_n(a)=\int_{\mathbb Z_p}(x+a)nd\mu_{-1}(x).$$ Base on the above Witt's identity and the binomial theorem, we prove some new identities for the Euler polynomials briefly. In particular, some symmetry properties of Euler polynomials have been discovered, which implies many interesting identities (known or unknown), including the Kaneko-Momiyama type identities (shown by Wu, Sun, and Pan) and the Alzer-Kwong type identity for Euler polynomials.
