New generalized Mellin transform and applications to partial and fractional differential equations

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a generalized Mellin transformation in a general form that encompasses the generalized Mellin transformations found in the literature. Then, we give the fundamental properties of this new integral transformation and apply it to some elementary functions. Furthermore, we obtain the solutions of partial and fractional differential equations by means of this new integral transformation. Finally, we examine the relations between generalized Mellin transformations in the literature and the new generalized Mellin transformation and present a table showing the new integral transformations of functions commonly used in mathematics, physics and engineering applications.
