Abstract

In an attempt to give extensions of certain results in the theory of Mac-Robert's E-function and Meijer's (G-function, the integrals

and

are evaluated, for positive integral values of n, in terms of Agarwal's and their numerous interesting particular cases are deduced. The scope of a further generalization of (i) and (ii), with the aid of the Mellin inversion formula, is also discussed.

It is observed that the integral (ii) provides an elegant generalization of some of the recent results of Srivastava which, in turn, incorporate a well-known formula due to Slater.
