Abstract
The concept of poly-Cauchy numbers was recently introduced by the author. The poly-Cauchy number is a generalization of the Cauchy number just as the poly-Bernoulli number is a generalization of the classical Bernoulli number. In this paper we give some more generalizations of poly-Cauchy numbers and show some arithmetical properties.
