Abstract
This article aims to establish certain image formulas associated with the fractional calculus operators with Appell function in the kernel and Caputo-type fractional differential operators involving Srivastava polynomials and extended Mittag-Leffler function. The main outcomes are presented in terms of the extended Wright function. In addition, along with the noted outcomes, the implications are also highlighted.
1 Introduction and preliminaries
The Mittag-Leffler function is the most significant in the theory of special functions in literature; solutions are available to number of problems formulated in terms of fractional integral, differential, and difference equations. So it has become a subject of interest for many authors in the field of fractional calculus (FC) and its applications (see details [4, 9, 18, 22, 25, 27, 28, 31, 35, 41–43]). Nowadays, there are several applications of the Mittag-Leffler function such as random walks, Levy flights, telegraph equation, kinetic equation, transport, and complex system. Some of the applications are in the field of applied sciences, like rheology, fluid flow, electric networks, diffusive transport, statistical distribution theory. Other significant applications are available in the area of fractals kinetics [3, 5, 6], medical sciences [11, 17, 21], fractal calculus and applications [1, 8, 24], and in the Haar wavelet and analytical approach [14, 19, 20, 36].
The Swedish mathematician Mittag-Leffler (M-L) [26] introduced the following function, known after his name as Mittag-Leffler function:
Throughout the paper, \(\mathbb{C}\), \(\mathbb{R}^{+}\), \(\mathbb{Z}_{0}^{-}\), and \(\mathbb{N}\) are the usual notations for the sets of complex numbers, positive real numbers, nonpositive integers, and positive integers, respectively. Further, \(\mathbb{N}_{0}:=\mathbb{N} \cup \{0\}\). Mathematician Wiman [44] generalized the M-L function (1) as follows:
Many authors have conferred and studied the above function in diverse areas of research (see, e.g., [10, 12, 13, 32, 33]).
Prabhakar [30] introduced the generalized Mittag-Leffler function as follows:
where \((\gamma )_{\tau }\), \(\gamma , \tau \in \mathbb{C}\); the Pochhammer symbol is defined in terms of the well-known gamma function by
We recall the definition of extended M-L function, which was introduced and investigated by Özarslan and Yilmaz [29] in the manner
where extended beta function \(\mathcal{B}_{p}(x,y)\) is defined as (see [7])
where \(\mathcal{B}_{0} (j,k)=\mathbf{B}(j,k)\), the well-known beta function (see, e.g., [39, Sect. 1.1])
Sharma and Devi [37] introduced and investigated the following extended Wright generalized hypergeometric function:
where the empty product is perceived as unity, and it is presumed that the summation is convergent.
The Srivastava family of polynomials [38, p.1. Equation (1)] is defined as follows:
We recall the definitions of fractional integral operators associated with the Appell function \(F_{3}\) (see, e.g., [40, p. 53, Eq. (6)],) in the kernel [23, 34], which are defined for τ, \(\tau ^{\prime }\), ε, \(\varepsilon ^{\prime }\), \(\upsilon \in \mathbb{C}\), \(\Re (\upsilon )>0\), \(x\in \mathbb{R}^{+}\) as follows:
and
Fractional integral operators (10) and (11) were introduced by Marichev [23] and further extended and studied by Saigo and Maeda [34].
Fractional differential operators corresponding to the above integrals (10) and (11) are defined as follows:

where \({}_{2}F_{1} ( \cdot ) \) is the Gauss hypergeometric series.
When \(\varepsilon =-\tau \), the operators in equations (17) and (18) coincide with the classical Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals of order \(\tau \in \mathbb{C}\) with \(x > 0\) as follows:

For \(\varepsilon =0\), the operators in equations (17) and (18) yield the so-called Erdélyi–Kober integrals of order \(\tau \in \mathbb{C}\) with \(x > 0\) as follows:

2 Fractional calculus of extended Mittag-Leffler function
In this section, we present certain image formulas for product of Srivastava polynomials and generalized EMLF in view of the generalized fractional integral and differential calculus and consider some corollaries as particular cases.
Theorem 2.1

3 Caputo-type fractional differentiation of extended Mittag-Leffler function
The left- and right-sided Caputo-type fractional differential operators with Gauss hypergeometric function in the kernel are defined as follows:
and
where \(\tau ,\varepsilon , \upsilon ,\varsigma \in \mathbb{C}\), \(\varLambda =[\Re (\tau )]+1 \), and \(x\in \mathbb{R}^{+}\).
The left- and right-sided Caputo-type generalized fractional differential operators are given by

4 Concluding remarks and discussion
In the current work, we have established the fractional calculus operators with Appell function kernels and Caputo-type fractional differential operators for the function involving the product of Srivastava’s polynomials and extended Mittag-Leffler function. Various special cases of the derived results in the paper can be evaluated by taking suitable values of parameters involved. Further, one can obtain a number of image formulas involving classical orthogonal polynomials as particular cases of our results, by giving special values to the coefficient \(A_{n,l} \), in the family of polynomials, which includes the polynomials viz. Laguerre, Hermite, Jacobi, Konhauser polynomials, and many others.
For example, if we put \(n=0\), then we see that the general class of polynomials \(S_{n}^{m} (x)\) reduces to unity, i.e., \(S_{0}^{m} (x) \to 1\), and we immediately obtain the result due to Araci et al. [2].
Also, if we set \(m=2\) and \(A_{n,l} =(-1)^{l} \), then the general class of polynomials stated in equation (9) reduces to
where \(H_{n} (x)\) denotes the familiar Hermite polynomials defined as
Eventually, it is easy to discover a comprehensive representation of more generalized special functions that are widely used in applied sciences.
