Some applications on $q$-analog of the generalized hyperharmonic numbers of order $r,$ $ H_{n}^{r}(\alpha )$

Abstract

In this paper, we define $q$-analog of the generalized harmonic numbers $H_{n}(\alpha )$ and the generalized hyperharmonic numbers of order $r,$ $H_{n}^{r}(\alpha ),$ and obtain some sums involving these numbers. Finally, we examine new applications of an $n\times n$ matrix $A_{n}=\left[ a_{i,j}\right] $ with the terms $a_{i,j}=H_{i}^{r}(j,q).$
