Abstract

The subject of this paper is to derive the solution of generalized fractional kinetic equations. The results are obtained in a compact form containing the Mittag-Leffler function, which naturally occurs whenever one is dealing with fractional integral equations. The results derived in this paper provide an extension of a result given by Haubold and Mathai in a recent paper (Haubold and Mathai, 2000).
