Operational Calculus for the nth-Level Prabhakar Type Fractional Derivative with Applications

Abstract: This study investigates the nth-level Prabhakar fractional derivative, a generalization encompassing some well-known fractional derivatives. We establish its fundamental properties, particularly its relationship with the corresponding Prabhakar fractional integral. Furthermore, we develop Mikusinski-type operational calculus for this derivative, providing a framework for solving differential equations involving this operator. To illustrate its application, we present analytical solutions of two problems: a fractional order ordinary differential equation and the time fractional heat equation, both of which include the nth-level Prabhakar derivative.
