ABSTRACT
Dedekind-type DC sums and their properties are defined in terms of Euler functions. Ma et al. recently introduced poly-Dedekind-type DC sums and demonstrated that they satisfy a reciprocity relation. In this paper, we introduce the degenerate poly-Euler polynomials and numbers, and we also consider the reciprocity relations of degenerate poly-Dedekind-type DC sums. Equivalently, several properties and identities of degenerate poly-Euler functions are obtained.
1. Introduction
Dedekind sums is a sum introduced by Dedekind when studying η functions. Moreover, the study of Dedekind sums and similar sums plays an important role in analytic mathematics, combinatorics, and algebraic number theory, and is closely related to the transformation formula of Dedekind functions and special value problems. Hence, Dedekind sums is defined by the relation:

Jackson [Citation11] first defined the q-derivative operator . In recent years, the q-derivatives have been widely used in other polynomials, such as, Khan et al. [Citation12] defined a number of subclasses of q-starlike functions, which associated with Janowski functions, and some coefficient inequalities with them. Shi et al. [Citation13] defined a new subclass of Janowski-type multivalent q-starlike functions. Zhang et al. [Citation14] defined a new subclass of bi-univalent functions and obtained some interesting results. By using q-Poisson distribution, Khan et al. [Citation15] defined function classes and derived some new subclasses and some useful results.

(13)
(13) where h, k are relative prime positive integers.
Simsek [Citation18] introduced the trigonometric function representation of Dedekind-type DC sums and the reciprocity law to Dedekind-type DC sums. Ma et al. [Citation4] introduced a new type of degenerate poly-Euler polynomials and numbers using the polylogarithm functions and degenerate polylogarithm functions, and introduced the poly-Dedekind type DC sums and derived the reciprocity relations to poly-Dedekind DC sums. In particular, we are interested in degenerate poly-Euler polynomials and numbers. The goal of this paper is to show the degenerate poly-Dedekind type DC sums and demonstrate it satisfy a reciprocity relation by using the degenerate polylogarithm functions. In this paper, we introduce the degenerate poly-Euler polynomials and numbers, give some equations and properties. Meanwhile, we give the reciprocity relation to the degenerate poly-Dedekind-type DC sums.
Now, we give several definitions and properties. At the first, the poly-Dedekind-type DC sums (see [Citation4]) was given by

3. Conclusion
In this paper, we observe that the poly-Dedekind-type DC sums and their generalizations are defined in terms of poly-Euler functions and their generalizations. So we introduced the degenerate poly-Ddekind-type DC sums , which satisfy the reciprocity relations. Meanwhile, we derive several identities and properties for degenerate poly-Euler polynomials and numbers.
As a further generalizations of the poly-Dedekind type DC sums, we would like to further study the reciprocity relations of degenerate poly-Dedekind-type DC sums, some properties of degenerate poly-Dedekind-type DC sums, their generating functions in the exponential form and their applications in physics and mathematics as well as other fields.
