Degenerate hypergeometric functions and degenerate hypergeometric numbers of order p (1908.11803v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce degenertae generalized hypergeometric functions and study degenerate hypergeometric numbers of order p. These numbers involving of lambda-binomial coefficients and lambda-falling sequence, and can be represented by means of the degenerate generalized hypergeometric functions. we will derive some explicit expressions and combinatorial identities for those numbers. We also consider several related special numbers like lambda-hypergeometric numbers of order p and Apostol type lambda-hypergeometric numbers of order p, of which the latter reduce in a limiting case to the generalized p-th order Franel numbers.
