Abstract In this paper we generalize the fractional q-Leibniz formula introduced by Agarwal in (Ganita 27(1-2):25-32, 1976) for the Riemann-Liouville fractional q-derivative. This extension is a q-version of a fractional Leibniz formula introduced by Osler in (SIAM J. Appl. Math. 18(3):658-674, 1970). We also introduce a generalization of the fractional q-Leibniz formula introduced by Purohit for the Weyl fractional q-difference operator in (Kyungpook Math. J. 50(4):473-482, 2010). Applications are included.

1 q-notions and notations Let q be a positive number,  < q < . In the following, we follow the notations and notions of q-hypergeometric functions, the q-gamma function q (x), Jackson q-exponential functions Eq (x), and the q-shifted factorial as in [, ]. By a q-geometric set A, we mean a set that satisfies if x ∈ A, then qx ∈ A. Let f be a function defined on a q-geometric set A. The q-difference operator is defined by Dq f (x) :=

f (x) – f (qx) , x – qx

x = .

()

The nth q-derivative, Dnq f , can be represented by its values at the points {qj x, j = , , . . . , n} through the identity

Dnq f (x) = (–)n ( – q)–n x–n q–n(n–)/

    n (–) qr(r–)/ f xqn–r r r=

Formulas () and () are well known and follow easily by induction. Jackson [] introduced an integral denoted by

provided that the series at the right-hand side of () converges at x = a and b. In [], Hahn defined the q-integration for a function f over [, ∞) and [x, ∞), x > , by
