Representations by probabilistic Bernoulli and degenerate Bernoulli polynomials

Abstract

We investigate the representation of arbitrary polynomials using probabilistic Bernoulli and degenerate Bernoulli polynomials associated with a random variable $Y$, whose moment generating function exists in a neighborhood of the origin. In addition, this paper explores the problem of representing arbitrary polynomials in terms of their higher-order counterparts. We develop explicit formulas for those representations with the help of umbral calculus and illustrate our results for several discrete and continuous random variables Y.
