Secondly, Dirac delta function is a linear functional under which every function f is mapped to f(0). This article combines both functions to solve the problems that have remained unsolved for many years. For instance, it has been demonstrated that the power law feature is ubiquitous in theory but challenging to observe in practice. Since the fractional derivatives of the delta function are proportional to the power law, we express the gamma function as a complex series of fractional derivatives of the delta function. Therefore, a unified approach is used to obtain a large class of ordinary, fractional derivatives and integral transforms. All kinds of q-derivatives of these transforms are also computed. The most general form of the fractional kinetic integrodifferential equation available in the literature is solved using this particular representation. We extend the models that were valid only for a class of locally integrable functions to a class of singular (generalized) functions. Furthermore, we solve a singular fractional integral equation whose coefficients have infinite number of singularities, being the poles of gamma function. It is interesting to note that new solutions were obtained using generalized functions with complex coefficients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/axioms12111046","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,13]],"date-time":"2023-11-13T02:02:42Z","timestamp":1699840962000},"page":"1046","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Complex Generalized Representation of Gamma Function Leading to the Distributional Solution of a Singular Fractional Integral Equation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6165-8055","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Asifa","family":"Tassaddiq","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Basic Sciences and Humanities, College of Computer and Information Sciences Majmaah University, Al Majmaah 11952, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7581-615X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rekha","family":"Srivastava","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Victoria, Victoria, BC V8W 3R4, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9588-8599","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ruhaila Md","family":"Kasmani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Universiti Malaya, Kuala Lumpur 50603, Malaysia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4994-833X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rabab","family":"Alharbi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, College of Sciences and Arts, Qassim University, ArRass 51921, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Gel\u2019fand, I.M., and Shilov, G.E.
