In this paper, we consider a generalization of the
Bernoulli polynomials, which we call universal Bernoulli polynomials. They are
related to the Lazard universal formal group. The corresponding numbers
by construction coincide with the universal Bernoulli numbers. They turn out
to have an important role in complex cobordism theory. They also obey
generalizations of the celebrated Kummer and Clausen–von Staudt congruences.
We derive a formula on the integral of products of higher-order universal
Bernoulli polynomials. As an application of this formula, the Laplace
transform of periodic universal Bernoulli polynomials is presented. Moreover,
we obtain the Fourier series expansion of higher-order universal Bernoulli
function.
