We also show several properties of poly-Euler numbers of the second kind, including duality formulae and congruence relations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-06-14T12:59:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11B68", "05A15", "11M41" ], "keywords": [ "second kind", "supplement hypergeometric euler numbers", "define poly-euler numbers", "complimentary euler numbers", "congruence relations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
