On applications of Caputo k-fractional derivatives

Abstract This research explores Caputo k-fractional integral inequalities for functions whose nth order derivatives are absolutely continuous and possess Grüss type variable bounds. Using Chebyshev inequality (Waheed et al. in IEEE Access 7:32137–32145, 2019) for Caputo k-fractional derivatives, several integral inequalities are derived. Further, Laplace transform of Caputo k-fractional derivative is presented and Caputo k-fractional derivative and Riemann–Liouville k-fractional integral of an extended generalized Mittag-Leffler function are calculated. Moreover, using the extended generalized Mittag-Leffler function, Caputo k-fractional differential equations are presented and their solutions are proposed by applying the Laplace transform technique.
