Some identities of Lah–Bell polynomials
Abstract
Abstract Recently, the nth Lah–Bell number was defined as the number of ways a set of n elements can be partitioned into nonempty linearly ordered subsets for any nonnegative integer n. Further, as natural extensions of the Lah–Bell numbers, Lah–Bell polynomials are defined. We study Lah–Bell polynomials with and without the help of umbral calculus. Notably, we use three different formulas in order to express various known families of polynomials such as higher-order Bernoulli polynomials and poly-Bernoulli polynomials in terms of the Lah–Bell polynomials. In addition, we obtain several properties of Lah–Bell polynomials.
