On certain multidimensional generalized Kober operators (Q1179111)

The paper deals with investigation of two multiple generalized fractional integration operators containing the Gauss hypergeometric function in the kernel. Certain properties of these operators such as the multiple Mellin transform, the multiple formula of integration by parts, and the inversion formulae are proved. The above multiple operators are an analogue of one-dimensional operators of generalized fractional integration considered by many authors. See \textit{T. P. Higgins} [J. Soc. Ind. Appl.
