Abstract

We define the (q,αˉ)(q,\bar{\boldsymbol{\alpha}})-Whitney numbers which are reduced to the αˉ\bar{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}-Whitney numbers when q1q\rightarrow1. Moreover, we obtain several properties of these numbers such as explicit formulas, recurrence relations, generating functions, orthogonality and inverse relations. Finally, we define the αˉ\bar{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}-Whitney-Lah numbers as a generalization of the rr-Whitney-Lah numbers and we introduce their important basic properties.
