In recent years, much attention has been paid to the role of degenerate versions of special functions and polynomials in mathematical physics and engineering. In the present paper, we introduce a degenerate Euler zeta function, a degenerate , and a degenerate . We present several properties, recurrence relations, infinite series, and representations for these functions. Furthermore, we establish identities involving hypergeometric functions in terms of de- generate digamma function.

(e , digamma, and polygamma functions have an In this section, we present some basic properties and increasing and recognized role in fractional differential well-known results on a degenerate which equations, mathematical physics, the theory of special we need in this work. In Section 2, we introduce a degenerate functions, statistics, probability theory, and the theory of Euler zeta function and discuss its region of convergence, infinite series.

In (ese functions are directly connected with a variety of Section 3, we define a degenerate digamma function along special functions such as zeta function, Clausen’s function, with its region of convergence and integral representation. and hypergeometric functions. (e evaluations of series We also give certain recurrence relations and formulae involving ζ(s) and related functions satisfied by the degenerate digamma function. In Section 4, have a long history that can be traced back to Christian we define a degenerate polygamma function and describe its Goldbach (1690–1764) and Leonhard Euler (1707–1783) convergence conditions. Some recurrence relations satisfied (see, for details, [10]). (e Euler zeta function and its by the degenerate polygamma function are also given here. generalizations and extensions have been widely studied Finally, in Section 5, the hypergeometric functions are [11–15]. expressed in terms of the degenerate digamma function. ∗ Later on, these functions arise in the study of matrix- In [26], a degenerate gamma function, denoted Γλ , has valued special functions and in the theory of matrix-valued been defined by orthogonal polynomials, see e.., [16–23] and the references ∞ therein. ∗ − t/λ − 1 Γλ (z) � � (1 + λ) t dt, λ ∈ (0, 1), Re(z) > 0.
