Exponential generating functions for Apostol-Dedekind and related sums
Abstract
One of the primary objectives of this paper is to construct generating functions for Apostol-Dedekind sums. These exponential generating functions greatly facilitate the discovery of new formulas and relations involving these sums. Other primary objectives of this paper are to define Apostol-Dedekind sums of higher-order and other certain family of finite sums, and to construct their generating functions. These generating functions include the Bernoulli polynomials and numbers, the Euler polynomials and numbers, the Array polynomials, the Stirling numbers, the Carlitz polynomials with their partial derivative equations, and the Hardy sums etc. Moreover, by using these functions, many novel formulas for the Apostol-Dedekind sums of higher-order are derived.
