 Euler numbers of the second kind were introduced as special cases of hypergeometric Euler numbers of the second kind in Komatsu and Zhu (Hypergeometric Euler numbers, 2016, arXiv:1612.06210), so that they would supplement hypergeometric Euler numbers. In this paper, we study generalized Euler numbers of the second kind and give several properties and applications.

 Euler numbers have been extensively studied by many authors (see e.g. [5,7–10] and references therein), in particular, by means of Bernoulli numbers. In [4], for N ≥ 0 hypergeometric Euler numbers E N ,n (n = 0, 1, 2, . . .) are defined by ∞
 
  1 tn E N ,n , = 2 n! 1 F2 (1; N + 1, (2N + 1)/2; t /4)

 Here (x)(n) is the rising factorial, defined by (x)(n) = x(x + 1) . . . (x + n − 1) (n ≥ 1) with (x)(0) = 1. Note that 1 t 2N /(2N )! . =  N −1 2n 2 1 F2 (1; N + 1, (2N + 1)/2; t /4) cosh t − n=0 t /(2n)! When N = 0, E n = E 0,n are the Euler numbers defined in (1.2). The sums of products of hypergeometric Euler numbers can be expressed as for N ≥ 1 and n ≥ 0, n   n     n n 2N − k N −1,n−k . E N ,k E E N ,i E N ,n−i = 2N i k i=0

 n are called weighted Bernoulli numbers. On the other hand, the sums of products In [5], E of complementary hypergeometric Euler numbers can be also expressed as n   n     n   n 2N − k + 1  E N ,k E N ,n−k E N ,i E N ,n−i = 2N + 1 i k i=0
