Our present investigation is mainly based on the k-hypergeometric functions which are constructed by making use of the Pochhammer k-symbol in Diaz et al. 2007, which are one of the vital generalizations of hypergeometric functions. In this study, we focus on the k-analogues of F1Appell function introduced by Mubeen et al. 2015 and the k-generalizations of F2 and F3 Appell functions indicated in Kıymaz et al. 2017. we present some important transformation formulas and some reduction formulas which show close relation not only with k-Appell functions but also with k-hypergeometric functions. Employing the theory of Riemann–Liouville k-fractional derivative from Rahman et al. 2020, and using the relations which we consider in this paper, we acquire linear and bilinear generating relations for k-analogue of hypergeometric functions and Appell functions.
