Abstract |
|
In this paper, probabilistic interpretation of the Kober fractional integration of non-integer order is proposed. We prove that
the fractional integral, which is proposed by Kober, can be interpreted as an expected value of a random variable up to a constant
factor. In this interpretation, the random variable describes dilation (scaling), which has the gamma distribution. The Erdelyi-Kober
fractional integration also has a probabilistic interpretation. Fractional differential operators of Kober and Erdelyi-Kober type have
analogous probabilistic interpretation. The proposed interpretation leads to a possibility of generalization of the fractional integration
and differentiation by using continuous probability distributions. |
