Spivey-type recurrence relation for fully degenerate Bell polynomials

Abstract: Spivey's combinatorial method revealed an important identity for Bell numbers, involving Stirling numbers of the second kind. This paper extends his work by deriving Spivey-type recurrence relations for fully degenerate Bell polynomials and degenerate Fubini polynomials. Our derivation uses degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind and two-variable degenerate Fubini polynomials of order a.
