Abstract
In this paper, we give some correct quantum type Simpson’s inequalities via the application of q-Hölder’s inequality. The inequalities of this study are compatible with famous Simpson’s and quadrature rules for four and six panels, respectively. Several special cases from our results are discussed in detail. A counter example is presented to explain the limitation of Hölder’s inequality in the quantum framework.

1. Introduction
The numerical integration and the numerical estimations of definite integrals is a vital piece of applied sciences. Simpson’s rules are momentous among the numerical techniques. The procedure is credited to Thomas Simpson (1710–1761). Johannes Kepler worked on a similar estimation technique about a century ago, so the algorithm is sometimes referred to as Kepler’s formula. Simpson’s formula uses the three-step Newton–Cotes quadrature rule, so estimations based on three-step quadratic kernel are sometimes termed as Newton type results. The following are the rules devised by Simpson.
- Simpson’s 1/3 rule:where and the number of panels are even.
- Simpson’s rule:where and the number of panels are integral multiples of 3.
An exceptionally popular estimation relating to the above rules is called Simpson’s inequality and is presented as follows:
Theorem 1.
Let be a fourth-order differentiable function on where then
Lately, many researchers have zeroed in on Simpson’s type inequalities for differentiable classes of convex functions. In particular, a few mathematicians have chipped away at Simpson and Newton type results for convex mappings, as convexity hypotheses are powerful and a solid strategy for tackling incredible number of issues which emerge in numerous parts of applied sciences. For example, Dragomir et al. [1] introduced Simpson type inequalities alongside their applications to quadrature formula in numerical integration. After this beginning, Simpson type inequalities via s-convex functions were developed by Alomari et al. [2]. Sarikaya et al. [3] proved the variants of Simpson type inequalities dependent upon s-convexity. Noor et al. [4,5] established some Newton type inequalities for harmonic convex and p-harmonic convex functions. Alongside these, some new Newton type inequalities for functions whose local fractional derivatives are generalized convex are proven by Iftikhar et al. [6].
In recent decades, several attempts have been made by researchers to obtain the variants and applications of integral inequalities. In the last couple of years, an assortment of novel methodologies has been used by scientists in summing up the traditional results about integral inequalities. One of those approaches is using the ideas of quantum calculus. It is very notable to everybody that quantum math is calculus without limits. Generally, the subject of quantum calculus (shortly, q-calculus) can be followed back to Euler and Jacobi, yet in the many years hence, it has encountered a quick development [7]. The theory gained popularity during the 20th century after the work of Jackson (1910) on defining an integral later known as the q-Jackson integral (see previous studies [7,8,9,10,11]). In q-calculus, the classical derivative is replaced by the q-difference operator in order to deal with non-differentiable functions (see Almeida and Torres and Cresson et al. [12,13]). Applications of q-calculus can be found in various branches of mathematics and physics, and the interested readers should consider [14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22] for valuable information. The development of quantum calculus enhanced the interest of researchers to add new ideas in the ongoing theory. Tariboon and Ntouyas [23] presented the idea of quantum integral over the finite interval, acquired a few q-analogues of traditional mathematical objects and opened a new setting of exploration. For example, the q-analogue of Hölder’s inequality, Hermite–Hadamard inequality, Ostrowski inequality, Cauchy–Bunyakovsky-Schwarz, Grüss, Grüss–Cebyshev, and other integral inequalities have been developed. Sudsutated et al. [24] and Noor et al. [25] acquired some extensions in the q-trapezoid type inequalities via first time q-differentiability. Liu and Zhuang [26] determined some q-analogues of trapezoid-like inequalities for twice quantum differentiable functions. Zhuang et al. [27] proved some more general q-analogues of trapezoid-like inequalities for first order quantum differentiable functions. Budak et al. [28] established some new simpson’s inequalities for q-integrals. For some more nitty gritty review with the application point of perspective, we allude to (see [24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45] and the references therein).
Adding motivation to these outcomes, particularly the outcomes created in [28], we notice that it is feasible to treat quantum integral operators introduced in [23,41] to jointly create some new Simpson type inequalities as in [28]. For this reason, we aim to achieve the following objectives.
- To obtain a new Simpson’s type inequality depending upon the two newly defined quantum integrals given in Definitions 3 and 5 which is analogous to 1/3 quadrature formula given by (1) for four panels.
- To extend Simpson’s 3/8 quadrature Formula (2) for six panels in the quantum calculus via indicated quantum integrals.
- To present a counter example which explains the limiting nature of Hölder’s inequality in the quantum framework of calculus.
- To re-capture the classical results involving the classical Hölder’s inequality and making comparison with the results due to q-Hölder’s inequality.

6. Simpson’s Type Inequalities Associated with Classical Integrals
This section is devoted to some classical versions of the inequalities developed for -integrals. Some results are deduced from the previous section. The rest of the results are proved to examine the variation of two theories.

7. Conclusions
The current study discusses the Simpson’s type quantum inequalities. The study brings into the spotlight some new estimates for Simpson’s type quadrature rules keeping four and six panels. The inequalities due to this study proves to be analogous to the classical rules. Our inequality (37) is analogous to the Simpson’s 1/3 rule (1) for four panels while our inequality (58) given in Theorem 8 is a quantum version of Simpson’s 3/8 rule (2) for six panels.
We also notice that Corollary 1 is a special case of Lemma 1 while Corollary 2 is a special case of Theorem 5. Corollary 4 gives an identity for six panels for classical integrals and is a special case of identity given in Lemma 2. Corollary 5 is obtained as a special case from Theorem 8.
It is worth mentioning that the theory of quantum differentiable and integrable functions is not completely parallel to the classical calculus. Indeed, the -Hölder’s inequality is weak compared to classical cases. Our results in Corollarys 3 and 6 are not special cases of Theorems 6 and 9, respectively. We have presented a counter example to explain the limiting nature of Hölder’s inequality in quantum framework of calculus. In some recent papers, the researchers have used the -Hölder’s inequality in the strong form which should be carefully re-examined. Finally, we found that the application of -Hölder’s inequality gives some new variants of the classical results. Now, due to this varying nature, researchers should not only address the special feature.
Finally, we remark that the result in Corollarys 2 and 5 reveals, in comparison with the established inequalities given in Remarks 2 and 3, that if the number of panels are doubled, then the error reduces half of the previous.
We feel that this study will inspire the researchers working in the area of quantum calculus.
