Abstract

Throughout this paper, we will present a new extension of the Wright hypergeometric matrix function by employing the extended Pochhammer matrix symbol. First, we present the extended hypergeometric matrix function and express certain integral equations and differential formulae concerning it. We also present the Mellin matrix transform of the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function. After that, we present some fractional calculus findings for these expanded Wright hypergeometric matrix functions. Lastly, we present several theorems of the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function in fractional Kinetic equations.

1. Introduction and Preliminaries

Special functions are significant in many disciplines of mathematics nowadays because specific forms of these functions have become vital tools in several sciences such as mathematical physics, probability theory, computer science, and engineering (see [1, 2]).

Special matrix functions demonstrate their relevance in addressing several physics issues, and their applications in statistics, lie groups, and differential equations are developing and becoming an active area in recent projects. Independent research is being conducted on new extensions of special matrix functions such as the beta matrix function, gamma matrix function, and Gaussian hypergeometric matrix function.

In this paper, the null matrix and identity matrix in r×r will be denoted as O and I, respectively. If a matrix ζr×r, then, the spectrum of ζ is the collection of all eigenvalues of ζ and is represented by σ(ζ). A matrix ζr×r is a positive stable if Re(ν) > 0 for all νσ (ζ).

If g(z) and h(z) are holomorphic functions defined on an open set D and if ζ is a matrix in r×r such that σ(ζ)⊂D then g(ζ)h(ζ) = h(ζ)g(ζ) (see [3]). Additionally, if ζ is a matrix in r×r such that σ(ζ)⊂D and ζη = ηζ, then, g(ζ)h(η) = h(η)g(ζ). If ζ is a positive stable matrix in r×r, then, the gamma matrix function Γ(ζ) is defined as follows (see [36]):
(1)
If ζ and η are positive stable matrices in r×r, then, the beta matrix function is defined by (see [36])
(2)
Also, if ζ, η and ζ + η are positive stable matrices in r×r such that ζη = ηζ then (see [3, 4])
(3)
If ζ is a matrix in r×r such that
(4)
then, the version Pochhammer matrix symbol is defined by (see [3])
(5)
From [7], if ζ, ρ are positive stable matrices in r×r and ζ satisfies condition (4), then the extended Gamma matrix function is defined by
(6)
and the new extended Pochhammer matrix symbol is given by
(7)
The new extended Pochhammer matrix symbol is satisfying the following property (see [7]):
(8)
The Gauss hypergeometric matrix function  2F1(ζ, η, ν; z) is defined as follows (see [3, 8, 9]):
(9)

where ζ, η and νr×r, ν satisfies the condition (4) and |z| < 1.

The Wright hypergeometric matrix function is defined in [10] as follows:
(10)
where τR+ and ζ, η and ν are positive stable matrix in r×r and ν satisfies the condition (4).
If η and ν are positive stable matrices function in r×r and ν satisfies the condition (4) then the Wright Kummer hypergeometric matrix function is defined in [10] as follows:
(11)

This article is organized into five sections. In Section 2, we will provide a new extension of the Wright hypergeometric matrix function and prove some theorems about integral and derivative formula of the extension of the Wright hypergeometric matrix function . In Section 3, we state the Mellin matrix transform of the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function.

In Section 4, we applied certain fractional calculus ideas to the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function. Lastly, in Section 5, we discuss several applications of in fractional kinetic equations.

2. The Extended Wright Hypergeometric Matrix Function

In terms of the generalized Pochhammer matrix symbol (ζ, ρ)n, we introduce the extended Gauss hypergeometric matrix function  2F1[(ζ, ρ), η, ν; z] and the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function as follows.

Definition 1. Let ζ, η, ν, and ρ be positive stable matrices in r×r and ν satisfies the condition (4) then the extended Gauss hypergeometric matrix function is given by

(12)

Definition 2. Let ζ, η, ν, and ρ are positive stable matrices in r×r and ν satisfies the condition (4) then the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function is

(13)
where τ ∈ (0, ∞).

Remark 3. Several particular remarks of the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function are mentioned below:

  • (i)

    When ρ = 0 in (13), we get the Wright hypergeometric matrix function defined in (10)

  • (ii)

    If we put τ = 1 and ρ = 0 in (13), we get the Gauss hypergeometric matrix function as in (9)

  • (iii)

    If ρ = 0 and ζ = αI, η = βI, ν = γI (where α, β, and γ are in ) in (13) then we get the Gauss hypergeometric function (see [11])

5. Applications in Fractional Kinetic Equations

In our time, the fractional kinetic equations have a great importance in deferent branches of applied science such as astrophysics, control system, dynamic system, and mathematical physics.

The standard fractional kinetic equation is defined by
(45)
where N(z) is the rate of reaction, N0 = N(z = 0) and  0Dμ is the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator defined in (38). Furthermore, Saxena and Kalla (see [15]) considered the following fractional kinetic equations:
(46)
The Laplace transform of the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator is (see [16])
(47)
where is the Laplace transform of h(z).

Theorem 14. Let ζ, η, ν, and C be positive stable matrices in r×r such that ν is invertible, ν satisfies the condition (4) and |z| < 1, then the solution of the generalized fractional kinetic matrix equation:

(54)
is given by
(55)

Proof. By using the same steps of proof in the previous theorem, we get the required.

6. Conclusions

The topic of derivative with fractional parameter has lately attracted the attention of academics. For example, Riemann-Liouville developed the concept of fractional order derivative. Later, Caputo and others adjusted this fractional derivative. Because of their physical features, fractional derivatives have been successfully used to mimic numerous real-world issues. Recently, a derivative based on the classical derivative with a fractional parameter was developed. The derivative has highly fascinating qualities; hence, in this work, we have attempted to present some conclusions concerning fractional calculus of these extended Wright hypergeometric matrix functions as well as certain theorems of the extended Wright hypergeometric matrix function in fractional kinetic equations. As future work, and from a numerical point of view, we aim to employ some of the derived formulas in this paper along with suitable spectral methods to treat numerically the differential equations with polynomial coefficients.
