Due to great potential and significant role of special functions especially hypergeometric functions in various problems occurring in mathematical physics, engineering [8] [9] , the author has motivated to further investigate the topic. Several generalizations of hypergeometric functions have been made by many authors [10] [11] . Recently Rao [12] defined Wright type generalized hypergeometric function via fractional calculus. Many authors investigated the fractional calculus approach in study of generalized hypergeometric type function [13] [14] . The subject fractional calculus has gained much attention amongst researchers due to its vast potential of demonstrated mathematical models in various fields of science and engineering such as diffusion, oscillation, dynamical process in porous structures, propagation of waves, diffusive transport, fluid flow, etc. The present paper aims at introducing and investigating a new kind of hypergeometric type function that is modified double zeta function via fractional calculus. The layout of the paper is as follows

In section 2 we introduce and discuss some properties of the modified double zeta function. Section 3 devoted to discuss the Trembley [15] well poised fractional calculus operator together with its properties. In section 4, we establish some interesting results of modified double zeta function through fractional operators and also derive its summation formula. In section 5, we develop some properties of fractional operators. Many Lemmas and particular cases have been discussed to relate known results.

In a sequel of result (5) here we introduce a modified double zeta function as follows

Recently fractional operator’s theory was recognized to be a good tool for modeling complex problems, kinetic equations, fractional reaction, diffusion equations, etc. In this work we introduce and study the new class of generalized zeta function through Riemann Liouville type and Tremblay fractional integral and differential operators. In section 4, interesting images of modified double zeta function have been obtained and useful link between generalized and modified zeta function has been established through Trembley fractional operator. Series expansion of the new class of generalized zeta function is a significant contribution in the direction along that developed in [5] . In section 5, interesting properties of operator have been derived. Many lemmas, corollaries and remarks are obtained to link results with earlier known work. Composition results of Trembley fractional operators and modified zeta function are very useful due to general nature proposed function which may lead several functions and open vast scope of further research in the operator’s field.
