The central factorial numbers of the second kind are defined as n (5) xn = ∑ T(n,k)x[k], (see [6]), k=0 or equivalently as ∞ n 1 t − t k t (6) (e 2 − e 2 ) = ∑ T(n,k) , k! n=k n!

It is well known that the Daehee polynomials are defined by n n log(1 +t) x t (7) (1 +t) = ∑ Dn(x) , (see [14, 15]). t k=0 n!

When x = 0, Dn = Dn(0) are called the Daehee numbers.

The Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind of order r are defined by r n n t x (r) t (8) (1 +t) = bn (x) , (see [13]). log(1 +t) ∑ n!   k=0 (r) (n−r+1) (r) Note that bn (x)= Bn (x + 1), (n ≥ 0).

For any nonzero λ ∈ R, the degenerate exponential function is defined by ∞ n x t x λ (12) eλ (t) = (1 + λt) = ∑ (x)n,λ , (see [9]), n=0 n! where (x)0,λ = 1, (x)n,λ = x(x − λ)··· (x − (n − 1)λ), (n ≥ 1). In particular, we let 1 1 λ (13) eλ (t)= eλ (t) = (1 + λt) .

In this paper, we introduce the type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind and their higher-order analogues, and study some identities and expressions for these polynomi- als. Specifically, we obtain a relation between the type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second and the degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second, an identity involving higher-order analogues of those polynomials and the degenerate Stirling numbers of second kind, and an expres- sion of higher-order analogues of those polynomials in terms of the higher-order type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials and the degenerate Stirling numbers of the first kind.

3. Conclusions

In [1,2], Carlitz initiated study of the degenerate Bernoulli and Euler polynomials. In recent years, many mathematicians have investigated various degenerate versions of some old and new polynomials and numbers, and found quite a few interesting results [3,4,6,10,11]. It is remarkable that studying degenerate versions is not only limited to polynomials but also can be applied to tran- scendental functions. Indeed, the degenerate gamma functions were introduced and studied in [8,9]. In this paper, we introduced the type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind and their higher-order analogues, and studied some identities and expressions for these polynomials. Specifically, we obtained a relation between the type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second and the degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second, an identity involving higher-order analogues of those polynomials and the degenerate Stirling numbers of second kind, and an expres- sion of higher-order analogues of those polynomials in terms of the higher-order type 2 degenerate Bernoulli polynomials and the degenerate Stirling numbers of the first kind. In addition, we obtained an identity involving the higher-order degenerate Bernoulli polynomi- als of the second kind, the type 2 Bernoulli polynomials and Stirling numbers of the second kind, and an identity involving the degenerate central factorial numbers of the second kind, the degener- ate Stirling numbers of the first kind and the higher-order degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind.
