Abstract
In this paper, we first prove three identities for functions of bounded variations. Then, by using these equalities, we obtain several trapezoid- and Ostrowski-type inequalities via generalized fractional integrals for functions of bounded variations with two variables. Moreover, we present some results for Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals by special choice of the main results. Finally, we investigate the connections between our results and those in earlier works. Analytic inequalities of this nature and especially the techniques involved have applications in various areas in which symmetry plays a prominent role.
1. Introduction
One of the most important inequalities for bounded functions is the Ostrowski inequality which gives an estimate for the deviation of the values of a smooth function from its mean value. The Ostrowski inequality is stated as follows: if is a differentiable function with a bounded derivative, then the following integral inequality
is valid for every which was proved by Ostrowski in 1938 [1]. Here, the constant is the best possible.
In the recent years, many versions of Ostrowski-type inequalities have been proved for some kinds of function classes, such as convex functions, bounded functions, functions of bounded variation, and so on. For example, Alomari et al. established some Ostrowski-type inequalities for s-convex functions in [2]. Moreover, some papers were devoted to study on Ostrowski-type inequalities for other kinds of convexities [3,4,5,6]. On the other hand, Set first proved the fractional version of Ostrowski inequality for s-convex functions via Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals [7]. Furthermore, many studies were focused on the proof of Ostrowski-type inequalities for certain fractional integral operators, such as k-Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals [8], local fractional integrals [9], Raina fractional integrals [10], etc. (see [11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23]). Moreover, by utilizing co-ordinated convex mapping, several Ostrowski inequalities were presented for the Riemann integral and Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals in [24,25], respectively.
On the other hand, Dragomir extended the Ostrowski inequality for functions of bounded variation [26]. Dragomir also proved trapezoid type inequalities and midpoint type inequalities for the functions of bounded variation in [27,28], respectively. In [29], the author presented several Simpson’s type inequalities for the mappings of bounded variations. In the literature, many studies were devoted to new versions of Ostrowski-type inequalities for functions of bounded variation. For some of them, please refer to [30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42]. In [43], some important inequalities for the functions of two variables with bounded variation were given and applications in the cubature formula was provided. However, there were some minor errors in the main results of the paper [43] since the Lemma 1 in the published version of [43] is inexact. Moricz has already provided the correct version of the lemma in [44]. In [43], Budak and Sarikaya presented the corrections of these results by using the lemma proved by Moricz. For other papers on inequalities for functions of two variables with bounded variation, see [45,46,47].
This paper aims to establish some trapezoid and Ostrowski-type inequalities for functions of bounded variations with two variables via generalized fractional integrals. The general structure of the paper consists of six sections including an introduction. The remaining part of the paper proceeds as follows: In Section 2, we first present definitions of the functions of bounded variations and total variations. We also give the definitions of generalized fractional integrals and relations between generalized fractional integrals and other type fractional integrals. In Section 3, we prove three identities for functions of bounded variations with two variables by using the Riemann–Stieltjes integral. Trapezoid- and Ostrowski-type inequalities for functions of bounded variations with two variables are established in Section 4 and Section 5, respectively. At the end of the paper, some conclusions and further directions of research are discussed in Section 6.
2. Preliminaries
In this section, we first present the definition of the functions of bounded variation (single and two variables). Then, we summarize the generalized fractional integrals and give the relations between generalized fractional integrals and the other types of fractional integrals.
2.1. Functions of Bounded Variation with One Variable
Definition 1
([48]). For any partition of and If the sum

2.2. Functions of Bounded Variation with Two Variables
Definition 2.

6. Conclusions
In this paper, we present several trapezoid and Ostrowski-type inequalities for functions of bounded variation with two variables via generalized fractional integrals. It is also shown that several results are given by special cases of the main results. We deduce that the findings proved in this work are naturally universal, contribute to the theory of inequalities and have applications for determining the uniqueness of solutions in fractional boundary value problems. The findings of this study can be applied to symmetry. The results for the case of symmetric functions can be obtained by applying the concepts of symmetric convex functions, which will be studied in future work. It is an interesting and new problem and forthcoming researchers can use the techniques of this study to derive similar inequalities for different kinds of fractional integrals in their future works.
