1 Introduction

Let p be a fixed odd prime number. Throughout this paper, the symbols Z p , Q p , and C p denote the ring of p-adic integers, the field of p-adic rational numbers, and the p-adic completion of the algebraic closure of Q p , respectively. Let ν p be the normalized exponential valuation of C p with |p|= p ν p ( p ) = 1 p and ν p (0)=.

When one speaks of q-extension, q can be regarded as an indeterminate, a complex qC, or a p-adic number q C p . In this paper, we assume that q C p with |1q|<1, and we use the notations of q-numbers as follows:

[ x ] q =[x:q]= 1 q x 1 q and [ x ] q = 1 ( q ) x 1 + q .
(1.1)

For any positive integer N, let

a+ p N Z p = { x Z p | x a ( mod p N ) } ,
(1.2)

where aZ satisfies the condition 0a< p N (see [18]).

It is known that the fermionic p-adic q-measure on Z p is given by Kim as follows:

μ q ( a + p N Z p ) = ( q ) a [ p N ] q = 1 + q 1 + q p N ( q ) a ,(see [1, 6, 9–12]).
(1.3)

Let C( Z p ) be the space of continuous functions on Z p . From (1.3), the fermionic p-adic q-integral on Z p is defined by Kim as follows:

I q (f)= Z p f(x)d μ q (x)= lim N 1 [ p N ] q x = 0 p N 1 f(x) ( q ) x ,
(1.4)

where fC( Z p ) (see [1, 6, 912]).

Let us assume q C p with |q1|<1. By (1.4), we get

Z p q x e [ x ] q t d μ q (x)= n = 0 E n , q t n n ! ,
(1.5)

(see [7, 8, 13]) where E n , q are q-Euler numbers. The q-Euler polynomials, E n , q (x), are also defined by

Z p q y e [ x + y ] q t d μ y (t)= n = 0 E n , q (x) t n n ! .
(1.6)

By (1.5) and (1.6), we get

E n , q (x)= l = 0 n ( n l ) x n l E l , q = ( x + E q ) n ,

with the usual convention of replacing ( E q ) n by E n , q (see [1, 2, 7, 8, 13]),

E n , q = Z p q x [ x ] q n d μ q (x)= [ ι ] q ( 1 q ) n l = 0 n ( 1 ) l ( n l ) 1 [ l ] q .

We will give the analogue of the Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym theorem with respect to a weighted p-adic q-measure on Z p . In a special case, when the weight q x is 1, we can derive the same result as Kim et al. [9]. And if q=1, we have the same result as Kim [4].

2 Lebesgue-Radon-Nikody-type theorem with respect to a weighted p-adic q-measure on Z p

For any positive integer a and n, with a< p n and fC( Z p ), let us define

μ ˜ f , q ( a + p n Z p ) = a + p n Z p q x f(x)d μ q (x),
(2.1)

where the integral is the fermionic p-adic q-integral on Z p .

From (1.3), (1.4), and (2.1), we note that

(2.2)

By (2.2), we get

μ ˜ f , q ( a + p n Z p ) = [ 2 ] q [ 2 ] q p n ( 1 ) a Z p q p n x f ( a + p n x ) d μ q p n (x).
(2.3)

Therefore, by (2.3), we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 1 For f,gC( Z p ), we have

μ ˜ α f + β g , q =α μ ˜ f , q +β μ ˜ g , q ,
(2.4)

where α, β are constants.

From (2.2) and (2.4), we note that

| μ ˜ f , q ( a + p n Z p ) | M f q ,
(2.5)

where f q = sup x Z p | q x f(x)| and M is some positive constant.

Now, we recall the definition of the strongly fermionic p-adic q-measure on Z p . If μ q satisfies the following equation:

| μ q ( a + p n Z p ) μ q ( a + p n + 1 Z p ) | δ n , q ,
(2.6)

where δ n , q 0 and n and δ n , q is independent of a, then μ q is called a weakly fermionic p-adic q-measure on Z p .

If δ n , q is replaced by C p ν p ( 1 q n ) (C is some constant), then μ q is called a strongly fermionic p-adic q-measure on Z p .

Let P(x) C p [ [ x ] q ] be an arbitrary q-polynomial with a i [ x ] q i . Then we see that μ P , q is a strongly fermionic p-adic q-measure on Z p . Without loss of generality, it is enough to prove the statement for P(x)= [ x ] q k .

Let a be an integer with 0a< p n . Then we get

μ ˜ P , q ( a + p n Z p ) = [ 2 ] q [ 2 ] q p n ( 1 ) a lim m 1 [ p m n ] q p n i = 0 p m n 1 [ a + i p n ] q k ( 1 ) i q p n i ,
(2.7)

and

q p n i = l = 0 i ( i l ) [ p n ] q l ( q 1 ) l .

By (2.7), we easily get

μ ˜ P , q ( a + p n Z p ) [ 2 ] q [ 2 ] q p n ( 1 ) a [ a ] q k ( mod [ p n ] q ) [ 2 ] q [ 2 ] q p n ( 1 ) a P ( a ) ( mod [ p n ] q ) .
(2.8)

Let x be arbitrary in Z p with x x n (mod p n ) and x x n + 1 (mod p n + 1 ), where x n and x n + 1 are positive integers such that 0 x n < p n and 0 x n + 1 < p n + 1 . Thus, by (2.8), we have

| μ ˜ P , q ( a + p n Z p ) μ ˜ P , q ( a + p n + 1 Z p ) | C p ν p ( 1 q p n ) ,
(2.9)

where C is some positive constant and n0.

Let

f μ ˜ P , q (a)= lim n μ ˜ P , q ( a + p n Z p ) .
(2.10)

Then by (2.5), (2.7), and (2.8), we get

f μ ˜ P , q (a)= [ 2 ] q 2 ( 1 ) a [ a ] q k = [ 2 ] q 2 ( 1 ) a P(a).
(2.11)

Since f μ ˜ P , q (x) is continuous on Z p , it follows, for all x Z p ,

f μ ˜ P , q (x)= [ 2 ] q 2 ( 1 ) x P(x).
(2.12)

Let gC( Z p ). By (2.10), (2.11), and (2.12), we get

Z p g ( x ) d μ ˜ P , q ( x ) = lim n i = 0 p n 1 g ( i ) μ ˜ P , q ( i + p n Z p ) = [ 2 ] q 2 lim n i = 0 p n 1 g ( i ) ( q ) i [ i ] q k = Z p q x g ( x ) [ x ] q k d μ q ( x ) .
(2.13)

Therefore, by (2.13), we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 2 Let P(x) C p [ [ x ] q ] be an arbitrary q-polynomial with a i [ x ] q i . Then μ ˜ P , q is a strongly fermionic weighted p-adic q-measure on Z p , and for all x Z p ,

f μ ˜ P , q = ( 1 ) x [ 2 ] q 2 P(x).
(2.14)

Furthermore, for any gC( Z p ), we have

Z p g(x)d μ ˜ P , q (x)= Z p q x g(x)P(x)d μ q (x),
(2.15)

where the second integral is a fermionic p-adic q-integral on Z p .

Let f(x)= n = 0 a n , q ( x n ) q be the q-Mahler expansion of a continuous function on Z p , where

( x n ) q = [ x ] q [ x 1 ] q [ x n + 1 ] q [ n ] q ! ( see [4] ) .
(2.16)

Then we note that lim n | a n , q |=0.

Let

f m (x)= i = 0 m a i , q ( x i ) q C p [ [ x ] q ] .
(2.17)

Then

f f m sup m n | a n , q |.
(2.18)

Writing f= f m +f f m , we easily get

(2.19)

From Theorem 2, we note that

| μ ˜ f f m , q ( a + p n Z p ) | f f m C 1 p ν p ( 1 q p n ) ,
(2.20)

where C 1 is some positive constant.

For m0, we have f = f m .

So,

| μ ˜ f m , q ( a + p n Z p ) μ ˜ f m , q ( a + p n + 1 Z p ) | C 2 p ν p ( 1 q p n ) ,
(2.21)

where C 2 is also some positive constant.

By (2.20) and (2.21), we see that

(2.22)

If we fix ϵ>0 and fix m such that f f m ϵ, then for n0, we have

| f ( a ) μ ˜ f , q ( a + p n Z p ) | ϵ.
(2.23)

Hence, we have

f μ f , q (a)= lim n μ ˜ f , q ( a + p n Z p ) = [ 2 ] q 2 ( 1 ) a f(a).
(2.24)

Let m be a sufficiently large number such that f f m p n .

Then we get

μ ˜ f , q ( a + p n Z p ) = μ ˜ f m , q ( a + p n Z p ) + μ ˜ f f m , q ( a + p n Z p ) = μ ˜ f m , q ( a + p n Z p ) = ( 1 ) a [ 2 ] q [ 2 ] q p n f ( a ) ( mod [ p n ] q ) .
(2.25)

For any gC( Z p ), we have

Z p g(x)d μ ˜ f , q (x)= Z p q x f(x)g(x)d μ q (x).
(2.26)

Assume that f is the function from C( Z p , C p ) to Lip( Z p , C p ). By the definition of μ ˜ q , we easily see that μ ˜ q is a strongly p-adic q-measure on Z p , and for n0,

| f μ ˜ q ( a ) μ ˜ q ( a + p n Z p ) | C 3 p ν p ( 1 q p n ) ,
(2.27)

where C 3 is some positive constant.

If μ ˜ 1 , q is associated with strongly fermionic weighted p-adic q-measure on Z p , then we have

| μ ˜ 1 , q ( a + p n Z p ) f μ ˜ q ( a ) | C 4 p ν p ( 1 q p n ) ,
(2.28)

where n0 and C 4 is some positive constant.

From (2.28), we get

(2.29)

where K is some positive constant.

Therefore, μ ˜ q μ ˜ 1 , q is a q-measure on Z p . Hence, we obtain the following theorem.

Theorem 3 Let μ ˜ q be a strongly fermionic weighted p-adic q-measure on Z p , and assume that the fermionic weighted Radon-Nikodym derivative f μ ˜ q on Z p is a continuous function on Z p . Suppose that μ ˜ 1 , q is the strongly fermionic weighted p-adic q-measure associated to f μ ˜ q . Then there exists a q-measure μ ˜ 2 , q on Z p such that

μ ˜ q = μ ˜ 1 , q + μ ˜ 2 , q .
