Abstract

We construct a new type of 𝑞 -Euler numbers and polynomials with weak weight 𝛼 : 𝐸 ( 𝛼 ) 𝑛 , 𝑞 , 𝐸 ( 𝛼 ) 𝑛 , 𝑞 ( 𝑥 ) , respectively. Some interesting results and relationships are obtained. Also, we observe the behavior of roots of the 𝑞 -Euler numbers 𝐸 ( 𝛼 ) 𝑛 , 𝑞 and polynomials 𝐸 ( 𝛼 ) 𝑛 , 𝑞 ( 𝑥 ) with weak weight 𝛼 . By means of numerical experiments, we demonstrate a remarkably regular structure of the complex roots of 𝑞 -Euler polynomials 𝐸 ( 𝛼 ) 𝑛 , 𝑞 with weak weight 𝛼 .
