Abstract
In this work, by introducing multiple parameters and utilizing the Euler–Maclaurin summation formula and Abel’s partial summation formula, we first establish a reverse Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality containing one partial sum as the terms of double series. Then, based on the newly proposed inequality, we characterize the equivalent conditions of the best possible constant factor associated with several parameters. At the end of the paper, we illustrate that more new inequalities can be generated from the special cases of the reverse Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality.

1. Introduction
Let and Then,
where is the best possible constant factor. Inequality (1) is known in the literature as Hardy-Hilbert’s inequality (see [1]).
By introducing parameters , Krnić and Pečarić [2] provided a generalization of Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality (1) as follows:
By introducing more parameters, Yang, Wu and Chen [3] established a further generalization of Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality (1) as follows:
where , .
By constructing partial sums and , Adiyasuren, Batbold and Azar [4] presented the following analogous version of Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality with the best possible constant factor :
where . Inequality (4) is the other kind of (2) involving two partial sums inside the two terms of series.
Recently, Liao, Wu and Yang [5] considered a variation of inequality (3); one partial sum was embedded inside the terms of series, i.e.,
where , , .
Yang, Wu and Huang [6] established a reverse Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality with one partial sum as the term of the double series, as follows:
As a further study of the development methods of Hardy–Hilbert-type inequalities, some unconventional methods are adopted. For example, a half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality with the multiple upper limit function and the partial sums was provided by [7]. A reverse Hardy–Hilbert-type integral inequality involving one derivative function was published by [8]. Inequalities (4)–(6) and the work of [7,8] are meaningful extensions of (2) based on the Euler–Maclaurin summation formula, Abel’s partial summation formula and the techniques of real analysis. Some applications of Hardy–Hilbert-type inequalities in the real analysis and operator theory can be found in the monograph [9]. In [10], Hong gave an equivalent condition between the best possible constant factor and the parameters in the extension of (4). Some other similar results are provided by [11,12,13].
Inspired by the work of [4,5,6,7,8,9,10], in this paper, we construct a reverse Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality which contains one partial sum and some extra parameters inside the weight coefficients, the reverse Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality has different structural forms by comparing with existing results mentioned above. Our method is mainly based on some skillful applications of the Euler–Maclaurin summation formula and Abel’s partial summation formula. By means of the newly proposed inequality, we then discuss the equivalent conditions of the best possible constant factor associated with several parameters. As applications, we deal with some equivalent forms of the obtained inequality and illustrate how to derive more reverse inequalities of Hardy–Hilbert type from the current results.

5. Conclusions
In this paper, inspired by the work of [4,5,6,7,8,9,10], we construct a reverse Hardy–Hilbert’s inequality which contains one partial sum and some extra parameters inside the weight coefficients in Theorem 1. Our method is mainly based on some skillful applications of the Euler–Maclaurin summation formula and Abel’s partial summation formula. By means of the newly proposed inequality, we then discuss the equivalent conditions of the best possible constant factor associated with several parameters in Theorems 2 and 3. As applications, we deal with some equivalent forms of the obtained inequality and illustrate how to derive more reverse inequalities of the Hardy–Hilbert type from the current results in Theorems 4 and 5. The lemmas and theorems reveal rich connotations and significance of this type of inequality.
