Introduction and notations Throughout this paper we use the following notations. By Z p we denote the ring of p-adic ra- tional integers, Q denotes the field of rational numbers, Q p denotes the field of p-adic rational numbers, C denotes the complex number field, and C p denotes the completion of algebraic clo- sure of Q p .Letν p be the normalized exponential valuation of C p with |p| p p −ν p p p −1 . When one talks of q-extension, q is considered in many ways such as an indeterminate, a complex number q ∈ C, or p-adic number q ∈ C p . If q ∈ C, one normally assumes that |q| < 1. If q ∈ C p , we normally assume that |q − 1| p <p −1/p−1 so that q x exp x log q for |x| p ≤ 1. In this paper, we use the following notation: 2 Journal of Inequalities and Applications x q x : q 1 − q x 1 − q 1.1 cf. 1–5, 22. Hence, lim q→1 xx for any x with |x| p ≤ 1 in the present p-adic case. Let d be a fixed integer and let p be a fixed prime number. For any positive integer N, we set X lim ← N Z dp N Z , X ∗ 0<a<d p a,p1 a dp Z p , a dp N Z p x ∈ X | x ≡ a mod dp N , 1.2 where a ∈ Z lies in 0 ≤ a<dp N . For any positive integer N , μ q a dp N Z p q a dp N q 1.3 is known to be a distribution on X cf. 1–20. From this distribution, we derive the p-adic, q-integral on Z p as follows: Z p fxdμ q x lim N→∞ 1 p N q p N −1 x0 q x fx,f∈ UD Z p , 1.4 see 1–23. Higher-order twisted Bernoulli andEulernumbersandpolynomials are studied by many authors see for detail 1–21.In14 Ozden et al. constructed generating functions of higher-order twisted h, q-extension ofEulerpolynomialsand numbers, by using p-adic, q-deformed fermionic integral on Z p . By applying their generating functions, they derived the complete sums of products of the twisted h, q-extension ofEulerpolynomialsand numbers, see 14, 15. In this paper, we consider the new q-extension ofEulernumbersandpolynomials to be different which is treated by Ozden et al. From our q-Euler numbersand polynomials, we derive some interesting identities and we construct q-Euler zeta functions which interpo- late the new q-Euler numbersandpolynomials at a negative integer. Furthermore, we study Barnes-type q-Euler zeta functions. Finally, we will derive the new formula for “sums of prod- ucts of q-Euler numbersand polynomials” by using fermionic p-adic, q-integral on Z p . 2. q-extension ofEulernumbers In this section we assume that q ∈ C with |q| < 1. Now we consider the q-extension ofEulerpolynomials as follows: F q x, t 2 q qe t 1 e xt ∞ n0 E n,q x n! t n , |t log q| <π. 2.1 Taekyun Kim et al. 3 Note that lim q→1 F q x, tFx, t 2 e t 1 e xt ∞ n0 E n x n! t n . 2.2 In the special case x 0, the q-Euler polynomial E n,q 0E n,q will be called q-Euler numbers. It is easy to see that F q x, t is analytic function in C. Hence we have ∞ n0 E n,q x n! t n 2 q qe t 1 e xt 2 q ∞ n0 −1 n q n e nxt . 2.3 If we take the kth derivative at t 0onbothsidesin2.3,thenwehave E k,q x2 q ∞ n0 −1 n q n n x k . 2.4 From 2.4 we can define q-zeta function which interpolating q-Euler numbers at negative in- teger as follows. For s ∈ C, we define ζ q s, x2 q ∞ n0 −1 n q n n x s ,s∈ C. 2.5 Note that ζ q s, x is analytic in complex s-plane. If we take s −k k ∈ Z , then we have ζ q −k, xE k,q x. By 2.4 and 2.5, we obtain the following. Theorem 2.1. For k ∈ Z , E k,q x2 q ∞ n0 −1 n q n n x k . 2.6 Let F q 0,tF q t. Then 2 q n−1 k0 −1 k q k e kt 2 q 1 qe t − 2 q −1 n q n e nt 1 qe t F q t − −1 n q n F q n, t. 2.7 From 2.7, derive ∞ k0 2 q n−1 l0 −1 l q l l k t k k! ∞ k0 E k,q − −1 n q n E k,q n t k k! . 2.8 By comparing the coefficients on both sides in 2.8, we obtain the following. 4 Journal of Inequalities and Applications Theorem 2.2. Let n ∈ N,k∈ Z .Ifn ≡ 0 mod 2,then E k,q − q n E k,q n2 q n−1 l0 −1 l q l l k . 2.9 If n ≡ 1 mod 2,then E k,q q n E k,q n2 q n−1 l0 −1 l q l l k . 2.10 For w 1 ,w 2 , ,w r ∈ C, consider the multiple q-Euler polynomialsof Barnes-type as follows: F r q w 1 ,w 2 , ,w r | x, t 2 r q e xt qe w 1 t 1 qe w 2 t 1 ··· qe w r t 1 ∞ n0 E n,q w 1 , ,w r | x t n n! , where max 1≤i≤r |w i t log q| <π. 2.11 For x 0,E n,q w 1 , ,w r | 0E n,q w 1 , ,w r will be called the multiple q-Euler numbersof Barnes type. It is easy to see that F r q w 1 ,w 2 , ,w r | x, t is analytic function in the given region. From 2.11,wederive 2 r q ∞ n 1 , ,n r 0 −q r i1 n i e r i1 n i w i xt ∞ n0 E n,q w 1 , ,w r | x t n n! . 2.12 By the kth differentiation on both sides in 2.12, we see that 2 r q ∞ n 1 , ,n r 0 −q r i1 n i r i1 n i w i x k E k,q w 1 , ,w r | x . 2.13 From 2.12, we can derive the following Barnes-type multiple q-Euler zeta function as follows. For s ∈ C, define ζ r,q w 1 ,w 2 , ,w r | s, x 2 r q ∞ n 1 , ,n r 0 −1 n 1 ···n r q n 1 ···n r n 1 w 1 n 2 w 2 ··· n r w r x s . 2.14 By 2.13 and 2.14, we obtain the following. Theorem 2.3. For k ∈ Z ,w 1 ,w 2 , ,w r ∈ C, ζ r,q w 1 ,w 2 , ,w r |−k, x E k,q w 1 ,w 2 , ,w r | x . 2.15 Let χ be the primitive Drichlet character with conductor f odd ∈ N. Then we consider generalized Eulernumbers attached to χ as follows: F χ,q t 2 q f−1 a0 −1 a q a χae at q f e ft 1 ∞ n0 E n,χ,q t n n! , 2.16 Taekyun Kim et al. 5 where | log q t| <π/f. The numbers E n,χ,q will be called the generalized q-Euler numbers attached to χ.From2.16,notethat F χ,q t 2 q f−1 a0 −1 a q a χae at q f e ft 1 2 q f−1 a0 −1 a q a χa ∞ n0 q nf −1 n e anft 2 q ∞ n0 f−1 a0 −1 anf q anf χa nfe anft 2 q ∞ n0 −1 n q n χne nt ∞ n0 E n,χ,q t n n! . 2.17 Thus, E k,χ,q d k dt k F χ,q t t0 2 q ∞ n1 −1 n q n χnn k , k ∈ N. 2.18 Therefore, we can define the Dirichlet-type l-function which interpolates at negative integer as follows. For s ∈ C, we define l q s, χ as l q s, χ2 q ∞ n1 −1 n q n χn n s . 2.19 By 2.18 and 2.19, we obtain the following. Theorem 2.4. For k ∈ Z , l q −k, χE k,χ,q . 2.20 From 2.1 and the definition of q-Euler numbers, derive F q t, x 2 q qe t 1 e xt ∞ n0 E n,q t n n! ∞ l0 x l l! t l ∞ m0 m n0 E n,q m n x m−n t m m! . 2.21 By 2.21 it is shown that E n,q x n m0 E m,q n m x n−m ,n∈ Z . 2.22 6 Journal of Inequalities and Applications For f (=odd) ∈ N,notethat ∞ n0 E n,q x t n n! 2 q qe t 1 e xt 2 q 1 q f e ft 1 f−1 a0 −1 a q a e ax/fft 2 q 2 q f f−1 a0 −1 a q a 2 q f e ax/fft q f e ft 1 2 q 2 q f f−1 a0 −1 a q a ∞ n0 E n,q f a x f f n t n n! . 2.23 Thus, we have the distribution relation for q-Euler polynomials as follows.

Higher-order q-Euler numbersandpolynomials In this section we also assume that q ∈ C p with |1 − q| p < 1. Now we study on higher-order q-Euler numbersandpolynomialsand sums of products of q-Euler numbers. First, we try to consider the multivariate fermionic p-adic, q-integral on Z p as follows: Z p ··· Z p r times e a 1 x 1 a 2 x 2 ···a r x r t e xt dμ −q x 1 ···dμ −q x r 2 r q qe a 1 t 1 qe a 2 t 1 ··· qe a r t 1 e xt , 4.1 where a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r ∈ Z p . From 4.1 we consider the multiple q-Euler polynomials as follows: 2 r q qe a 1 t 1 qe a 2 t 1 ··· qe a r t 1 e xt ∞ n0 E n,q a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r | x t n n! . 4.2 In the special case a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r 1, 1, ,1, we write E n,q a 1 , ,a r r times | x E r n,q x. 4.3 For x 0, the multiple q-Euler polynomials will be called as q-Euler numbersof order r . From 4.2 we note that E n,q a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r | x Z p ··· Z p r times a 1 x 1 ··· a r x r x n r j1 dμ −q x j . 4.4 It is easy to check that E n,q a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r | x n l0 n l x n−l E l,q a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r , 4.5 where E n,q a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r E n,q a 1 ,a 2 , ,a r | 0. Multinomial theorem is well known as fol- lows: r j1 x j n l 1 , ,l r ≥0 l 1 ···l r n n l 1 , ,l r r a1 x l a a , 4.6 where n l 1 , ,l r n! l 1 !l 2 ! ···l r ! . 4.7 By 4.2 and 4.6 we easily see that E r n,q x n m0 l 1 , ,l r ≥0 l 1 ···l r m n m m l 1 , ,l r x n−m r j1 E l j ,q . 4.8 Taekyun Kim et al. 9 References 1 M.
