Some Fractional Calculus results associated with the $I$-Function

Abstract

The effect of Marichev-Saigo-Maeda (MSM) fractional operators involving third Appell function on the $I$ function is studied. It is shown that the order of the $I$-function increases on application of these operators to the power multiple of the $I$-function. The Caputo-type MSM fractional derivatives are introduced and studied for the $I$-function. As special cases, the corresponding assertions for Saigo and Erdélyi-Kober fractional operators are also presented. The results obtained in this paper generalize several known results obtained recently in the literature.
