A Note on the Euler and Genocchi Numbers

Abstract. We characterize the ordinary generating functions of the Genocchi and median Genocchi numbers as unique solutions of some functional equations and give a direct algebraic proof of several continued fraction expansions for these functions. New relations between these numbers are also obtained.


The following version is available:
