In this paper we study q-Euler numbers and polynomials by using p-adic q-fermionic integrals on Z_p. The methods to study q-Euler numbers and polynomials in this paper are new.Comment: 13 page

Functional equations from generating functions: a novel approach to deriving identities for the Bernstein basis functions

The main aim of this paper is to provide a novel approach to deriving identities for the Bernstein polynomials using functional equations. We derive various functional equations and differential equations using generating functions. Applying these equations, we give new proofs for some standard identities for the Bernstein basis functions, including formulas for sums, alternating sums, recursion, subdivision, degree raising, differentiation and a formula for the monomials in terms of the Bernstein basis functions. We also derive many new identities for the Bernstein basis functions based on this approach. Moreover, by applying the Laplace transform to the generating functions for the Bernstein basis functions, we obtain some interesting series representations for the Bernstein basis functions.Comment: 1
