Summary: | Abstract Here, the concept of a new and interesting Riemann–Liouville type fractional derivative operator is exploited. Treatment of a fractional derivative operator has been made associated with the extended Appell hypergeometric functions of two variables and Lauricella hypergeometric function of three variables. With a view on analytic properties and application of new Riemann–Liouville type fractional derivative operator, we have obtained new fractional derivative formulas for some familiar functions and for Mellin transformation formulas. For the sake of justification of our new operator, we have established some presumably new generating functions for an extended hypergeometric function using the new definition of fractional derivative operator.
