Erdelyi-Kober Fractional Integral Operators from a Statistical Perspective -III (1303.3980v1)

Abstract: In this article we define Kober fractional integral operators in the multivariable case. First we consider one sequence of independent random variables and an arbitrary function, which can act as the joint density of another sequence of random variables. Then we define a concept, analogous to the concept of Kober operators in the scalar variable case. This extension is achieved by using statistical techniques and the representation gives an interpretation in terms of a joint statistical density. Then we look at two sets of random variables where between the sets they are independently distributed but within each set they are dependent. Again extensions of Kober fractional integral operator are considered. Several such statistical interpretations are given for Kober operators in the multivariable case.
