In this paper, the operators of fractional integration introduced by Marichev-Saigo-Maeda involving Appell's function F3(·) are applied, and several new image formulas of generalized Lommel–Wright function are established. Also, by implementing some integral transforms on the resulting formulas, few more image formulas have been presented. We can conclude that all derived results in our work generalize numerous well-known results and are capable of yielding a number of applications in the theory of special functions.

1. Introduction and Preliminaries
Fractional calculus (FC) represents a complex physical phenomenon in a more accurate and efficient way than classical calculus. In recent years, many researchers [1–7] have used fractional order integral models in real-world problems in various fields of science and technology. There exists several definitions of fractional order integrals in the literature that can be used to solve the fractional integral equations involving special functions. For an exhaustive literature review, one may refer to the paper by Srivastava and Saxena [8].
The generalized functions such as Bessel, Lommel, Struve, and Lommel–Wright functions have originated from concrete problems in applied fields of sciences viz mechanics, physics, engineering, astronomy, etc.
The generalized Lommel–Wright function is defined by de'Oteiza et al. [9] and is represented in the following manner:
where pψq denotes the Fox–Wright generalized hypergeometric function which is defined as given in Srivastava and Karlsson [10, p. 21] and Kilbas et al. [11, P. 56]
where ai, bj ∈ ℂ and Ai, Bj ∈ ℝ = (−∞, ∞); Ai, Bj ≠ 0, i = 1, 2, …, p, j = 1, 2, …, q, .
A useful generalization of the Lommel–Wright function and its special cases, depending on the arbitrary fractional parameter φ > 0 presents a fractional order extension of the Bessel function Jω(z).
Prieto et al. [12] studied some useful results in the theory of fractional calculus operators of generalized Lommel–Wright function. The convergence of series involving generalized Lommel–Wright function was studied by Konovska [13].
When m = 1, the following generalization of the Bessel function, introduced by Pathak [14] is obtained as a special case of generalized Lommel–Wright function (1.1) (see e.g., [15, p. 353]):
On taking m = 1, φ = 1, and in (1.1), we obtain the Struve function Hω(·) (see e.g., [16, p. 28, Equation (1.170)])
If we take m = 1, φ = 1, and ϑ = 0 in (1.1), it gives the relationship with the Bessel function as follows (see e.g., [16, p. 27, Equation (1.161)]):
A generalization of the hypergeometric fractional integrals, including the Saigo operators [17, 18] has been introduced by Marichev [19]. The details of these fractional operators have been found in Samko et al. [5, p. 194, Equation (10.47)] and later extended and studied by Saigo and Maeda [20, p. 393, Equation (4.12) and Equation (4.13)] in terms of complex order Appell function F3(·) of two variables (see [10, p. 23]) in the kernel
The Appell function F3 reduces to the Gauss hypergeomatric function 2F1 and satisfies the system of two linear partial differential equations of the second order as follows (see [10, p. 301, Equation 9.4]):
Further, it is easy to see that
and
In this paper, we develop and study the image formulas involving the generalized Lommel–Wright function using fractional calculus integral operators. We use the generalized Marichev-Saigo-Maeda fractional integral operators, involving the Appell function, defined as follows:
and
respectively.
The power functions of left-hand sided and right-hand sided Marichev-Saigo-Maeda fractional integral operators as given in the Equations (1.10) and (1.11) (see Saigo et al. [6, 20]) are given by
where ζ, ζ′, ϱ, ϱ′, κ ∈ ℂ, x>0 and if ℜ(κ) > 0, ℜ(χ)>max{0, ℜ(ζ + ζ′ + ϱ − κ), ℜ(ζ′ − ϱ′)}.
where ζ, ζ′, ϱ, ϱ′, κ ∈ ℂ are such that ℜ(κ) > 0 and ℜ(χ) < 1 + min{ℜ(−ϱ), ℜ(ζ + ζ′ − κ), ℜ(ζ + ϱ′ − κ)}.
1.1. Relation Among the Operators
In this section, we recall some relationships between the fractional integral operators.
If we set ζ′ = 0 then in view of the formula (1.8), the relationship between Marichev-Saigo-Maeda and the Saigo fractional integral operators is found by Saxena and Saigo [6, p. 93, Equation (2.15)] as
and
where the general operators and reduce, respectively, to the Saigo operators and [17] defined as follows:
and
where integrals in (1.16) and (1.17) exist.
Let ζ, ϱ, η, χ ∈ ℂ with ℜ(ζ) > 0. Then the following power function formulas involving the Saigo operators hold true:
and
On replacing ϱ = −ζ in the operators and , these reduce to the Riemann-Liouville and the Weyl fractional integral operators, respectively, by means of the following relationships (see Kilbas [11]):
and
The Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator and the Weyl fractional integral operator are defined as follows (see e.g., [21]):
and
provided both the integrals converge.
The operators and reduce to Erdélyi–Kober fractional integral operators on setting ϱ = 0 as follows:
and
where the Erdélyi–Kober type fractional integral operators are defined as follows (see [22]):
and
The function f(t) is constrained so that both the defining integrals (1.26) and (1.27) converge.
The Beta transform (see, e.g.[23]) of a complex valued function f(t) of a real variable t is defined as follows:
Beta transform of the power function tχ−1 is given by:
The Pδ - transform of a complex valued function f(t) of a real variable t denoted by Pδ[f(t); s] is a function F(s) of a complex variable s, valid under certain conditions on f(t), (given below is defined as (see Kumar [24])
Here f(t) as a function is integrable over any finite interval (a, b), 0 < a < t < b; there exists a real number c such that
(i) if b > 0 is arbitrary, then tends to a finite limit as Υ → ∞
(ii) for arbitrary a > 0, tends to a finite limit as ω → 0+, then the Pδ-transform Pδ[f(t); s] exists for for s ∈ ℂ.
Pδ - transform of the power function tχ−1 is given by
Pδ-transform has found many applications. The pathway transforms are the paths going from the binomial form to the exponential from e−st. In Pδ-transform, the variable t is shifted from the binomial factor to the exponent, Hence, this form is more suitable for obtaining translation, convolution, etc. Recently, Agarwal et al. [25] found the solution of non-homogeneous time fractional heat equation and fractional Volterra integral equation using integral transform of pathway type. Also, Srivastava et al. [26] and [27] found some results involving generalized hypergeometric function and generalized incomplete gamma function by using Pδ-transform.
If we take δ → 1 in Equation (1.30), the Pδ-transform reduces to Laplace integral transform (Sneddon [23]):
The following relationship between the Pδ-transform is defined by (1.30) and the classical Laplace transform is defined by (1.32)
or, equivalently,
which can be applied to convert the table of Laplace transforms into the corresponding table of Pδ-transforms and vice versa.
The following integral formula involving the Whittaker function (see Mathai et al. [16, p. 56]) is used in finding the image formula:
The Whittaker function (see e.g., Mathai et al. [16, p. 22]) is defined by
where
2. Image Formula Associated With Fractional Integral Operators
Here, we establish image formulas for the generalized Lommel–Wright function involving Saigo-Maeda fractional integral operators (1.10) and (1.11), in terms of the Fox–Wright function.
Theorem 2.1. Let ζ, ζ′, ϱ, ϱ′, κ, ϑ ∈ ℂ, m ∈ ℕ, φ > 0 and x > 0 be such that
then there holds the formula
where A = χ + ω + 2ϑ.
Proof: Under the conditions stated with the Theorem 2.1, by taking the fractional integral of (1.1) using the equation (1.10) therein and changing the order of integration and summation, we get
Further, applying the result (1.12) with χ replaced by χ + ω + 2ϑ + 2k, we obtain
Here A = χ + ω + 2ϑ.
Interpreting the right-hand side of the above equation, in view of the definition (1.2), we arrive at the result (2.2).
Theorem 2.2. Let ζ, ζ′, ϱ, ϱ′, κ, ϑ ∈ ℂ, m ∈ ℕ, φ > 0 and x > 0 be such that
then there holds the formula
where A = 1 − χ + ω + 2ϑ.
Proof: Under the conditions stated with the Theorem 2.2, on making use of the definitions (1.11) and (1.1) and changing the order of integration and summation, we have
Here, on applying the formula (1.13) with χ replaced by χ − ω − 2ϑ − 2k, we obtain
where A = 1 − χ + ω + 2ϑ.
So in view of the definition of the generalized Lommel–Wright function given by (1.1), the Equation (2.8) leads to the result (2.6).
For m = 1 and in the light of Equation (1.3), Theorem 2.1 leads to the following corollaries:
Corollary 2.1. Under the conditions stated with the Equation (2.1), the following image formula

Corollary 2.2. Under the conditions stated with the Equation (2.5), the image formula
A = 1 − χ + ω + 2ϑ, for generalized Bessel function holds true.
If we take m = 1, φ = 1, and in (2.2), then we obtain the corresponding results for the Struve function Hω(·) [16] as
Corollary 2.3. Under the conditions stated with the Equation (2.1), the following image formula
A = χ + ω + 1, for Struve function Hω(zt) holds true.
Corollary 2.4. Under the conditions stated with the Equation (2.5), the following image formula
where A = 2 − χ + ω, for Struve function Hω(z/t) holds true.

for Bessel function Jω(t) holds true.
(2) Further, on taking φ = 1, m = 1, and ϑ = 0 in Theorem 2.2, we arrive the right-sided image formula for the Bessel function considered by Purohit et al. [28, Theorem 2].
Corollary 2.6. Under the conditions stated with the Equation (2.5), the image formula
for Bessel function Jω(1/t) holds true.

4. Special Cases and Concluding Remarks
In this section, we consider some special cases of our main results involved in Theorems 2.1–3.6 which can be obtained by setting ζ′ = 0. These interesting corollaries of our results involve the Saigo fractional integral operators and and can be deduced from the Theorems 2.1–3.6 by appropriately applying the relationships given in the definitions (1.16) and (1.17). If we set ϱ = −ζ in the Theorems 2.1–3.6, then from the relationships (1.20) and (1.21) we obtain the corresponding results for the Riemann–Liouville and the Weyl fractional integral operators, respectively. Again, if we put ϱ = 0 in the Theorems 2.1–3.6, then from the relationships (1.24) and (1.25) we obtain the analogous results for Erdélyi-Kober type fractional integral operators.
In our present investigation, we establish the relationship between well-known fractional integral operators with novel integral transforms. The results obtained here are useful in deriving at various image formulas. The results presented here are very generic and can be specialized to give further potentially interesting and useful formulas involving fractional integral operators.
