Motivated by several generalizations of the Pochhammer symbol and their associated families of hypergeometric functions and hypergeometric polynomials, by choosing to use a very generalized Pochhammer symbol, we aim to introduce certain extensions of the generalized Lauricella function F⁽ⁿ⁾_A and the Humbert's confluent hypergeometric function Ψ⁽ⁿ⁾ of n variables with, as their respective particular cases, the second Appell hypergeometric function F₂ and the generalized Humbert's confluent hypergeometric functions Ψ₂ and investigate their several properties including, for example, various integral representations, finite summation formulas with an s-fold sum and integral representations involving the Laguerre polynomials, the incomplete gamma functions, and the Bessel and modified Bessel functions. Also, pertinent links between the major identities discussed in this article and different (existing or novel) findings are revealed.

Srivastava noticed the existence of three additional complete triple hypergeometric functions $H_A$, $H_B$ and $H_C$ of the second order in the course of an extensive investigation of Lauricella's fourteen hypergeometric functions of three variables. In 2004, Rathie and Kim obtained four summation formulas containing a large number of very interesting reducible cases of Srivastava's triple hypergeometric series $H_A$ and $H_C$. Here we are also aiming at presenting two unified summation formulas (actually, including 62 ones) for some reducible cases of Srivastava's $H_C$ with the help of generalized Dixon's theorem and generalized Whipple's theorem on the sum of a $_3F_2$ obtained earlier by Lavoie et al.. Some special cases of our results are also considered.

During the past four decades or so, due mainly to a wide range of applications from natural sciences to social sciences, the so-called fractional calculus has attracted an enormous attention of a large number of researchers. Many fractional calculus operators, especially, involving various special functions, have been extensively investigated and widely applied. Here, in this paper, in a systematic manner, we aim to establish certain image formulas of various fractional integral operators involving diverse types of generalized hypergeometric functions, which are mainly expressed in terms of Hadamard product. Some interesting special cases of our main results are also considered and relevant connections of some results presented here with those earlier ones are also pointed out.
