Abstract

:
In this paper, the study is focused on the quantum estimates of Ostrowski type inequalities for q-differentiable functions involving the special function introduced by R.K. Raina which depends on certain parameters. Our methodology involves Jackson’s q-integral, the basic concepts of quantum calculus, and a generalization of a class of special functions used in the frame of convex sets and convex functions. As a main result, some quantum estimates for the aforementioned inequality are established and some cases involving the special hypergeometric and Mittag–Leffler functions have been studied and some known results are deduced.

1. Introduction

Quantum calculus (also known as calculus with no limits) was initiated by Euler in the eighteenth century (1707–1783). In [1], F. J. Jackson started a systematic study of q-calculus and introduced the q-definite integrals. He also was the first to develop q-calculus in a systematic way. Some branches of mathematics and physics, such as number theory, orthogonal polynomials, combinatory, basic hypergeometric functions, mechanics, and quantum and relativity theory, have been enriched by the research work of various authors as T. Ernst [2,3], H. Gauchman [4], V. Kac and P. Cheung [5], and M.E.H. Ismail [6,7]. Also, certain famous integral inequalities have been studied in the frame of q-calculus [8,9].
The convexity of a function has played an important role as a tool in the development of inequalities. The relationship of this concept is always present in branches, such as functional analysis, harmonic analysis, specifically in interpolation theory, control theory and optimization, as is shown in the following works C.P. Niculescu [10], C. Bennett and R. Sharpley [11], N.A. Nguyen et. al. [12], Ş. Mititelu and S. Trenţă [13], S. Trenţă [14,15]. This property was defined by J.L.W.V. Jensen in the following works [16,17] as follows.
Definition 1.
A function f : I R R is said to be convex on I , if
f ( ( 1 ı ) 1 + ı 2 ) ( 1 ı ) f ( 1 ) + ı f ( 2 )
holds for every 1 , 2 I and ı [ 0 , 1 ] .
It is well known that modern analysis directly or indirectly involves the applications of convexity. Due to its applications and significant importance, the concept of convexity has been extended and generalized in several directions. The concept of convexity and its variant forms have played a fundamental role in the development of various fields. Various types of generalized convexity have appeared in different research works, some of them modify the domain or range of the function, always maintaining the basic structure of a convex function. Among them are: s-convexity in the first and second sense [18], P-convexity [19], MT-convexity [20], and others [21,22,23,24,25,26].
The following inequality, named the Ostrowski inequality, is one of the most famous inequalities in the literature.
Theorem 1.
Let f : I [ 0 , + [ R be a differentiable function on I , such that f L [ 1 , 2 ] and 1 , 2 I with 1 < 2 . If | f ( x ) | M , where M is a real positive number, then the following inequality holds:
| f ( x ) 1 2 1 1 2 f ( ı ) d ı | M 2 1 ( x 1 ) 2 + ( 2 x ) 2 2 .
The Ostrowski type inequality has remained a subject of great interest due to its wide applications in the field of mathematical analysis [27]. For other recent results that generalize, improve, and extend the inequality (1) through various class functions, for example, functions of bounded variation, Lipschitzian, monotone, absolutely continuous, convex, s-convex, h-convex, and ( m , h 1 , h 2 ) -convex among others, the studies [18,28,29,30,31,32] have appeared.

2. Preliminaries

Let K be a non empty closed set in R n and ϕ : K R be a continuous function.
M.A. Noor, in [33], introduced a new class of non-convex functions, the so-called ϕ -convex as follows:
Definition 2.
The function f : K R on the ϕ-convex set K is said to be ϕ-convex, if
f ( 1 + ı e i ϕ ( 2 1 ) ) ( 1 ı ) f ( 1 ) + ı f ( 2 ) , 1 , 2 K , ı [ 0 , 1 ] .
The function f is said to be ϕ -concave if ( f ) is ϕ -convex. Note that every convex function is ϕ -convex but the converse does not hold in general.
R.K. Raina, in [34], introduced a class of functions defined by
F ρ , λ σ ( z ) = F ρ , λ σ ( 0 ) , σ ( 1 ) , ( z ) = k = 0 + σ ( k ) Γ ( ρ k + λ ) z k ,
where ρ , λ > 0 , | z | < R and σ = ( σ ( 0 ) , , σ ( k ) , ) is a bounded sequence of positive real numbers. Note that, if we take in (2) ρ = 1 , λ = 0 and
σ ( k ) = ( ( α ) k ( β ) k ) ( γ ) k f o r k = 0 , 1 , 2 , ,
where α , β and γ are parameters which can take arbitrary real or complex values (provided that γ 0 , 1 , 2 , ) , and the symbol ( a ) k denotes the quantity
( a ) k = Γ ( a + k ) Γ ( a ) = a ( a + 1 ) ( a + k 1 ) , k = 0 , 1 , 2 , ,
and we restrict its domain to | z | 1 (with z C ), then we have the classical hypergeometric function, that is
F ρ , λ σ ( z ) = F ( α , β ; γ ; z ) = k = 0 + ( α ) k ( β ) k k ! ( γ ) k z k .
Also, if σ = ( 1 , 1 , ) with ρ = α , ( R e ( α ) > 0 ) , λ = 1 and if we restrict its domain to z C in (2) then we have the classical Mittag–Leffler function
E α ( z ) = k = 0 + 1 Γ ( 1 + α k ) z k .
Finally, let us recall the new class of sets and new class of functions involving Raina’s function introduced by Vivas-Cortez et al. in [35]: the so-called generalized ϕ -convex set and also the generalized ϕ -convex function. The usefulness of this definition lies in the generality of the type of special function focused on. The σ , ρ and λ parameters determine the particular special function considered. Just as the definition used by Noor in [33] considers the e i ϕ function as a parameter, in the framework of complex values, the following definition emulates it in the field of real numbers.
Definition 3.
Let ρ , λ > 0 and σ = ( σ ( 0 ) , , σ ( k ) , ) be bounded sequences of positive real numbers. A non empty set K is said to be a generalized ϕ-convex set, if
1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( 2 1 ) K , 1 , 2 K a n d ı [ 0 , 1 ] ,
where F ρ , λ σ ( · ) is Raina’s function.
Definition 4.
Let ρ , λ > 0 and σ = ( σ ( 0 ) , , σ ( k ) , ) be bounded sequences of positive real numbers. If a function f : K R satisfies the following inequality
f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( 2 1 ) ) ( 1 ı ) f ( 1 ) + ı f ( 2 ) ,
for all ı [ 0 , 1 ] and 1 , 2 K , then f is called generalized ϕ-convex.
Remark 1.
Taking F ρ , λ σ ( 2 1 ) = 2 1 > 0 in definition 4, then we obtain definition 1. Also, under a suitable choice of F ρ , λ σ ( · ) , we find definition 2.
Recently several authors have utilized quantum calculus as a strong tool in establishing other inequalities, see [5,36,37,38,39,40] and the references therein.
We recall now some concepts from quantum calculus. Let I = [ 1 , 2 ] R be an interval and 0 < q < 1 be a constant.
Definition 5.
[39] Let f : I R be a continuous function and x I . Then the q-derivative of f on I at x is defined as
1 D q f ( x ) = f ( x ) f ( q x + ( 1 q ) 1 ) ( 1 q ) ( x 1 ) , x 1 , 1 D q f ( 1 ) = lim x 1 1 D q f ( x ) .
We say that f is q-differentiable on I provided 1 D q f ( x ) exists for all x I . Note that if 1 = 0 in (5), then 1 D q f = D q f , where D q is the well-known q-derivative of the function f ( x ) defined by
D q f ( x ) = f ( x ) f ( q x ) ( 1 q ) x .
Definition 6.
[39] Let f : I R be a continuous function. Then the q-integral on I is defined by
1 x f ( ı ) 1 d q ı = ( 1 q ) ( x 1 ) n = 0 + q n f q n x + ( 1 q n ) 1 .
for x I . Note that if 1 = 0 , then we have the classical q-integral, which is defined by
0 x f ( ı ) 0 d q ı = ( 1 q ) x n = 0 + q n f q n x
for x [ 0 , + ) .
Theorem 2.
[39] Assume that f , g : I R are continuous functions, c R . Then, for x I , we have
1 x f ( ı ) + g ( ı ) 1 d q ı = 1 x f ( ı ) 1 d q ı + 1 x g ( ı ) 1 d q ı ;
1 x ( c f ) ( ı ) 1 d q ı = c 1 x f ( ı ) 1 d q ı .
Definition 7.
[5] For any real number 1 ,
[ 1 ] q = q 1 1 q 1
is called the q-analogue of 1 . In particular, if n Z , we denote
[ n ] = q n 1 q 1 = q n 1 + + q + 1 .
Definition 8.
[5] If n Z , the q-analogue of ( x 1 ) n is the polynomial
( x 1 ) q n = 1 , n = 0 ; ( x 1 ) ( x q 1 ) ( x q n 1 1 ) , n 1 .
Definition 9.
[5] For any t , s > 0 ,
β q ( t , s ) = 0 1 ı t 1 ( 1 q ı ) q s 1 0 d q ı
is called the q-Beta function. Note that
β q ( t , 1 ) = 0 1 ı t 1 0 d q ı = 1 [ t ] ,
where [ t ] is the q-analogue of t .
Noor M. A. et al. in [31], established the following q-integral identity.
Lemma 1.
Let f : [ 1 , 2 ] R R be a q-differentiable function on ( 1 , 2 ) with 1 D q f be continuous and integrable on [ 1 , 2 ] , where 0 < q < 1 . Then the following identity holds:
f ( x ) 1 2 1 1 2 f ( ı ) 1 d q ı = q ( x 1 ) 2 2 1 0 1 ı 1 D q f ( ı x + ( 1 ı ) 1 ) 0 d q ı
+ q ( 2 x ) 2 2 1 0 1 ı 1 D q f ( ı x + ( 1 ı ) 2 ) 0 d q ı .
Motivated by the above literatures, the paper is organized as follows: The Main Results section is divided in two subsections; the first is a study about quantum estimates for Ostrowski inequalities using the generalized class of special functions defined by Raina R.K., and the second subsection presents some Ostrowski type inequalities for certain special functions derived from the previous results. We will use an identity for q-differentiable functions involving Raina’s function and applying this identity, we develop some quantum estimates of Ostrowski type inequalities for the generalized ϕ -convex function. Various special cases will be obtained.

3. Main Results

This section is subdivided in two subsections. The first is about some quantum estimates for Ostrowski inequalities using the class of functions defined by Raina R.K., and in the second subsection are results about these quantum estimates for the hypergeometric function and the Mittag–Leffler function.

3.1. Quantum Estimates for Ostrowski Inequality

We denote O = 1 , 2 , for 1 < 2 , where ρ , λ > 0 and σ = ( σ ( 0 ) , , σ ( k ) , ) is a bounded sequence of positive real numbers. Also, for convenience we denote d q ı for 0 d q ı , where 0 < q < 1 .
We first derive a new quantum integral identity for q-differentiable functions involving Raina’s function.
Lemma 2.
Let f : O R be a q-differentiable function on O with 1 D q f considered continuous and integrable on O . Then the following identity holds:
T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı 1 D q f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) d q ı
+ q F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı 1 D q f ( 2 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 2 ) ) d q ı ,
where
T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = f ( x ) 1 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 1 1 + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 1 ) f ( ı ) 1 d q ı .
Proof. 
Let denote, respectively,
T f ( 1 ) ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı 1 D q f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) d q ı
and
T f ( 2 ) ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = q F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı 1 D q f ( 2 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 2 ) ) d q ı .
Then, we have
T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = T f ( 1 ) ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) + T f ( 2 ) ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) .
Using Definitions 5 and 6, we have
T f ( 1 ) ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) × 0 1 ı f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) f ( 1 + q ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) ( 1 q ) ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) d q ı
= F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) × n = 0 + q n + 1 f ( 1 + q n F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) n = 0 + q n + 1 f ( 1 + q n + 1 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) )
= F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) f ( x ) 1 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 1 x f ( ı ) d q ı .
Similarly
T f ( 2 ) ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) f ( x ) 1 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) x 1 + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 1 ) f ( ı ) d q ı .
Adding (7) and (8), we get (6).
The proof is complete. □
Remark 2.
Taking q 1 in Lemma 2, we obtain the following new identity:
T f ( x , 1 , 2 ) = F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) d ı
+ F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı f ( 2 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 2 ) ) d ı ,
where
T f ( x , 1 , 2 ) = f ( x ) 1 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 1 1 + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 1 ) f ( ı ) d ı .
Remark 3.
Letting ρ = 1 , λ = 0 and σ = ( 0 , 1 , 0 , 0 , ) in Lemma 2 we have F ρ , λ σ ( y x ) = y x for all x , y O , and so we get Lemma 1.
Now, applying Lemma 2, we establish some quantum estimates of Ostrowski type inequalities for generalized ϕ -convex functions.
Theorem 3.
Let f : O R be a q-differentiable function on O with 1 D q f considered continuous and integrable on O . If | 1 D q f | r is generalized as ϕ-convex on O for r > 1 and 1 p + 1 r = 1 , then the following inequality holds:
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) | q [ p + 1 ] p ( F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) ) × { F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 q | 1 D q f ( 1 ) | r + | 1 D q f ( x ) | r 1 + q r + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 q | 1 D q f ( 2 ) | r + | 1 D q f ( x ) | r 1 + q r } ,
where [ p + 1 ] is the q-analogue of p + 1 .
Proof. 
Using Lemma 2, Hölder’s inequality and the fact that | 1 D q f | r is generalized ϕ -convex function, we have
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) | q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı | 1 D q f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) | d q ı + q F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı | 1 D q f ( 2 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 2 ) ) | d q ı
q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı p d q ı 1 p 0 1 | 1 D q f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) | r d q ı 1 r
+ q F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı p d q ı 1 p × 0 1 | 1 D q f ( 2 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 2 ) ) | r d q ı 1 r
q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı p d q ı 1 p × 0 1 ( 1 ı ) | 1 D q f ( 1 ) | r + ı | 1 D q f ( x ) | r d q ı 1 r
+ q F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı p d q ı 1 p × 0 1 ( 1 ı ) | 1 D q f ( 2 ) | r + ı | 1 D q f ( x ) | r d q ı 1 r
= q [ p + 1 ] p × 1 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) × { F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 q | 1 D q f ( 1 ) | r + | 1 D q f ( x ) | r 1 + q r + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 q | 1 D q f ( 2 ) | r + | 1 D q f ( x ) | r 1 + q r } .
The proof is complete. □
Corollary 1.
Taking the limit when q 1 in Theorem 3, we obtain
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ) | 1 p + 1 p ( F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) ) × F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 | f ( 1 ) | r + | f ( x ) | r 2 r + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 | f ( 2 ) | r + | f ( x ) | r 2 r .
Corollary 2.
Additionally, if | 1 D q f | M for some M > 0 in Theorem 3, then the following inequality holds
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) | q M [ p + 1 ] p F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) .
Remark 4.
Letting ρ = 1 , λ = 0 and σ = ( 0 , 1 , 0 , 0 , ) in the Raina’s function then we have F ρ , λ σ ( y x ) = y x for all x , y O , so from Corollary 2, we obtain Theorem 3.2 in [31].
Theorem 4.
Let f : O R be a q-differentiable function on O with 1 D q f considered continuous and integrable on O . If | 1 D q f | r is generalized as ϕ-convex on O , then for r 1 , the following inequality holds:
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) | q ( 1 + q ) 1 + q + q 2 r ( F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) ) × { F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 q 2 | 1 D q f ( 1 ) | r + ( 1 + q ) | 1 D q f ( x ) | r r + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 q 2 | 1 D q f ( 2 ) | r + ( 1 + q ) | 1 D q f ( x ) | r r } .
Proof. 
Using Lemma 2, the well-known power mean inequality and the fact that | 1 D q f | r is a generalized ϕ -convex function, we have
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) | q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı | 1 D q f ( 1 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) ) | d q ı + q F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 0 1 ı | 1 D q f ( 2 + ı F ρ , λ σ ( x 2 ) ) | d q ı

The proof is complete. □
Corollary 3.
Taking the limit when q 1 in Theorem 4, we find
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ) | 1 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) × F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 | f ( 1 ) | r + 2 | f ( x ) | r 3 r + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 | f ( 2 ) | r + 2 | f ( x ) | r 3 r .
Corollary 4.
Additionally, if | 1 D q f | M for some M > 0 in Theorem 4, then we obtain
| T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) | q M 1 + q F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) 2 + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 2 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) .
Remark 5.
Letting ρ = 1 , λ = 0 and σ = ( 0 , 1 , 0 , 0 , ) in Raina’s function then we have F ρ , λ σ ( y x ) = y x for all x , y O , so from Corollary 4 we obtain Theorem 3.1 in [31].
Theorem 5.
Let f : O R be a q-differentiable function on O with 1 D q f considered continuous and integrable on O . If | 1 D q f | r is generalized as ϕ-convex on O , then for r 1 , the following inequality holds:

3.2. Quantum Estimates Using the Hypergeometric and Mittag–Leffler Functions

As it was mentioned in the Preliminaries section, for a particular selection of choices for the parameters ρ , λ , and σ in Raina’s function (2), it is possible to find expressions using the hypergeometric function and the Mittag–Leffler function, between others, so we can establish similar results to those found in the Main Results section for these special functions.

Letting in (2) ρ = 1 , λ = 0 and
σ ( k ) = ( ( α ) k ( β ) k ) ( γ ) k for k = 0 , 1 , 2 , ,

where
T f ( x , 1 , 2 ; q ) = f ( x ) 1 F ρ , λ σ ( x 1 ) + F ρ , λ σ ( 2 x ) 1 1 + F ( α , β ; γ ; 2 1 ) f ( ı ) 1 d q ı .

Theorem 8.

3.2.2. For the Mittag-Leffler Function

Letting ρ = α , R e ( α ) > 0 , λ = 1 and σ = ( 1 , 1 , 1 , ) in (2), then from Lemma 2, Theorem 3, Theorem 4, and Theorem 5, the following results hold.
Lemma 4.
Let f : O R be a q-differentiable function on O with 1 D q f considered continuous and integrable on O . Then the following identity holds:

4. Conclusions

In the present study, certain new Ostrowski type inequalities have been established: Theorems 3–5, through the use of the identity established in Lemma 2, within the framework of quantum calculus and a class of parametrized special functions. From these results, particular cases for hypergeometric and Mittag–Leffler functions have been deduced. It is expected that from the results obtained, and following the methodology applied, additional special functions may also be evaluated. Future works can be developed in the area of numerical analysis and even contributions using quantum algorithms, using the theorems and corollaries presented. Finally, our results can be applied to derive some inequalities using special means. We omit their proof and the details are left to the interested reader.
