Assuming that

1], Theorem 316):
where
is the best value. (1) and (2), with their extensions, played an important role in real analysis. Among them, the paper [
2] studied the generalizations of (1) and (2), and the papers [
3,
4] considered the properties of m-linear Hilbert-type inequality and two kinds of Hilbert-type inequalities involving differential operators.
A half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality was provided in 1934 as follows: If

then (cf. [
1], Theorem 351)
Some new generalizations and applications of (3) were provided by [
5,
6] in recent years.
In 2006, by means of the summation formula, Krnic et al. [
7] gave a generalization of (1) with the kernel as
. In 2019, following [
7], Adiyasuren et al. [
8] gave a generalization of (1) involving two partial sums. In 2016-2017, Hong et al. [
9,
10] obtained some equivalent statements of the generalizations of (1) and (2) with the best values related to a few parameters. Two similar results were provided by [
11,
12]. Among them, the paper [
11] considered multidimensional Hardy-type inequalities in Hölder spaces, and the paper [
12] studied a new form of Hilbert’s integral inequality. To further understand the theory of this field and cite some useful related papers, please see Yang’s book [
13]. Recently, Hong et al. [
14] gave a new half-discrete multidimensional inequality involving one multiple upper limit function as an application.
In this article, following the idea of [
7,
8], by means of real analysis, the way of introduced parameters and the transfer formulas, two new multidimensional Hilbert-type integral inequalities with the nonhomogeneous kernel as
are given, which are some new extensions of the Hilbert-type integral inequalities in the two-dimensional case. Some equivalent statements of the best possible constant factor and a few parameters related to the new inequalities are provided. Furthermore, two corollaries regard the kernel, represented as
, are considered, and some new inequalities in a few particular parameters are obtained.
