Properties of the Extended Whittaker Function

Daya K. Nagar, Rau´l Alejandro Mor´an-V´asquez, Arjun K. Arjun K. Gupta

Abstract


In this article, we define an extended form of the Whittaker function by using extended confluent  hypergeometric function of the first kind and study several of its properties. We also define the extended confluent hypergeometric function of the second kind and show that this function occurs naturally in statistical distribution  theory.
