In the present work we derive various integral formulas involving ℵ-function multiplied with algebraic functions and special functions.

In the present work we introduce a composition formula of the pathway fractional integration operator with finite product of generalized K-Wright function and K4-function. The obtained results are in terms of generalized Wright function. Certain special cases of the main results given here are also considered to correspond with some known and new (presumably) pathway fractional integral formulas.

In this paper, we consider generalized space-time fractional cable equation in presence of external source. By using the Fourier-Laplace transform we obtain the Green function in terms of infinite series in H-functions. The fractional moments of the fundamental solution are derived and their asymptotic behavior in the short and long time limit is analyzed. Some previously obtained results are compared with those presented in this paper. By using the Bernstein characterization theorem we find the conditions under which the even moments are non-negative.

This article is in continuation of the authors research attempts to derive computational solutions of an unified reaction-diffusion equation of distributed order associated with Caputo derivatives as the time-derivative and Riesz-Feller derivative as space derivative. This article presents computational solutions of distributed order fractional reaction-diffusion equations associated with Riemann-Liouville derivatives of fractional orders as the time-derivatives and Riesz-Feller fractional derivatives as the space derivatives. The method followed in deriving the solution is that of joint Laplace and Fourier transforms. The solution is derived in a closed and computational form in terms of the familiar Mittag-Leffler function. It provides an elegant extension of results available in the literature. The results obtained are presented in the form of two theorems. Some results associated specifically with fractional Riesz derivatives are also derived as special cases of the most general result. It will be seen that in case of distributed order fractional reaction-diffusion, the solution comes in a compact and closed form in terms of a generalization of the Kampé de Fériet hypergeometric series in two variables. The convergence of the double series occurring in the solution is also given.

This paper is in continuation of the authors' recently published paper (Journal of Mathematical Physics 55(2014)083519) in which computational solutions of an unified reaction-diffusion equation of distributed order associated with Caputo derivatives as the time-derivative and Riesz-Feller derivative as space derivative is derived. In the present paper, computable solutions of distributed order fractional reaction-diffusion equations associated with generalized Riemann-Liouville derivatives of fractional orders as the time-derivative and Riesz-Feller fractional derivative as the space derivative are investigated. The solutions of the fractional reaction-diffusion equations of fractional orders are obtained in this paper. The method followed in deriving the solutions is that of joint Laplace and Fourier transforms. The solutions obtained are in a closed and computable form in terms of the familiar generalized Mittag-Leffler functions. They provide elegant extensions of the results given in the literature.

This paper deals with the investigation of the computational solutions of a unified fractional reaction-diffusion equation, which is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the time derivative of first order by the generalized Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative defined by others and the space derivative of second order by the Riesz–Feller fractional derivative and adding a function ɸ(x, t). The solution is derived by the application of the Laplace and Fourier transforms in a compact and closed form in terms of Mittag–Leffler functions. The main result obtained in this paper provides an elegant extension of the fundamental solution for the space-time fractional diffusion equation obtained by others and the result very recently given by others. At the end, extensions of the derived results, associated with a finite number of Riesz–Feller space fractional derivatives, are also investigated.

This paper deals with the investigation of the solution of an unified fractional reaction-diffusion equation of distributed order associated with the Caputo derivatives as the time-derivative and Riesz-Feller fractional derivative as the space-derivative. The solution is derived by the application of the joint Laplace and Fourier transforms in compact and closed form in terms of the H-function. The results derived are of general nature and include the results investigated earlier by other authors, notably by Mainardi et al. [“The fundamental solution of the space-time fractional diffusion equation,” Fractional Calculus Appl. Anal. 4, 153–202 (2001); Mainardi et al. “Fox H-functions in fractional diffusion,” J. Comput. Appl. Math. 178, 321–331 (2005)] for the fundamental solution of the space-time fractional equation, including Haubold et al. [“Solutions of reaction-diffusion equations in terms of the H-function,” Bull. Astron. Soc. India 35, 681–689 (2007)] and Saxena et al. [“Fractional reaction-diffusion equations,” Astrophys. Space Sci. 305, 289–296 (2006a)] for fractional reaction-diffusion equations. The advantage of using the Riesz-Feller derivative lies in the fact that the solution of the fractional reaction-diffusion equation, containing this derivative, includes the fundamental solution for space-time fractional diffusion, which itself is a generalization of fractional diffusion, space-time fraction diffusion, and time-fractional diffusion, see Schneider and Wyss [“Fractional diffusion and wave equations,” J. Math. Phys. 30, 134–144 (1989)]. These specialized types of diffusion can be interpreted as spatial probability density functions evolving in time and are expressible in terms of the H-function in compact forms. The convergence conditions for the double series occurring in the solutions are investigated. It is interesting to observe that the double series comes out to be a special case of the Srivastava-Daoust hypergeometric function of two variables given in Appendix B of this paper. Fractional reaction-diffusion equations are of specific interest in physics for non-Gaussian, non-Markovian, and non-Fickian phenomena.
