1. Introduction
The evolution of the theory of time scales was introduced by Hilger [
1] in 1988, which initiated the survey of dynamic equations on time scales. This helps to demonstrate the results of differential inequality and again for difference inequality. Ahlbrandt et al. [
2] derived a time scale T as a non-empty subset of the real numbers with the characteristic that every Cauchy sequence in T converges to a point of T, with the possible exception of Cauchy sequences converging to a finite infimum or finite supremum of T. Additionally, this concept has been studied by some authors, see, [
3,
4]. Time scale calculus has applications in several fields such as physics, biology, engineering, image processing, fluid dynamics, see [
5,
6,
7,
8]. If a function is defined on a time scale, we can consider the derivative and also the integral. For example: The time scale integral became an ordinary integral, Sum and Jackson integral when we consider time-scale as a set of real numbers, the set of all integers and the set of all integer powers of a fixed number, respectively. After that, many authors investigated the time scale versions of several aspects of the theory of dynamic inequalities that essentially depend on integral inequalities. Dinu [
9] established the Hermite-Hadamard inequality for convex functions on time scales. Further, Lai et al. [
10] obtained Hermite–Hadamard type inequality for the class of strongly convex function on time scales.
In 1938, Ostrowski gave a formula to evaluate the deviation of differentiable functions from its integral mean which is discussed in [
11] named as the Ostrowski inequality, as follows:
Let
be a differentiable mapping on
whose derivative
is bounded on
, i.e.,
. Then, the following inequality holds:
This inequality is proved by using Montgomery identity as shown in [
12]. Further, this identity on time scale was studied by M. Bohner and T. Matthews in [
4]. The Ostrowski inequality has many applications in numerical analysis and in probability, many researchers have established generalizations, extensions and variants of inequality (1). We refer readers to [
13,
14,
15,
16]. This inequality is considered by many researchers as a function of bounded variation, Lipschitzian, monotonic, absolutely continuous and n-times differentiable mappings with error estimates with some special means together with some numerical quadrature rules. In 2019, Basci and Baleanu [
17] gave new Ostrowski-type inequalities for both left and right sided fractional integrals of a function g with respect to another function
. Further Erden et al. [
18] introduced some fractional Ostrowski-type inequalities for class of function
,
,
involving Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals for partially differentiable functions. Sarikaya and Filiz [
19] introduced some Ostrowski-type integral inequalities for some differentiable mapping by using the Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals. In 2022, Hyder et al. [
20] gave the Hermite–Hadamard inequality through generalized Riemann–Liouville fractional integral for a function with convex absolute values of derivative. In our paper, we establish Ostrowski type inequalities by using Δ-integral for a differentiable function and its delta derivative is exponentially s-preinvex function and also bounded.
The concept of convexity has a great role in the field of integral inequality and mathematical analysis. Recently, several researchers have explored the close connection and interrelated work on convexity and symmetry. Hanson [
21] established a new class of generalized convexity, which is known as invexity. In 1986, B. Isral and B. Mond [
22] gave the concept of preinvex functions which is a special case of invexity. For more instances, see [
23,
24,
25].
Recently, Abbasi and Anwar [
26] investigated Ostrowski type inequalities for exponentially s-convex functions and s-convex functions on a time scale and also obtained several results which are essentially based on Ostrowski inequality.
The work is organized in the following way: In
Section 2, we give some basic introduction into the time scales theory. In
Section 3, we prove Hermite–Hadamard type inequality and Ostrowski type inequalities for exponentially s-preinvex functions and s-preinvex functions on time scales also we discuss some special cases when
then Δ-integral became a classical integral. In
Section 4, we obtain the applications to some special means. In
Section 5, we present the conclusions of the present work.
2. Preliminaries
In this section, we give some definitions and results which is necessary for our main results.
Definition 1 ([
26])
. A time scale (or measure chain) is a non-empty closed subset of the real numbers .
The two most popular examples of time scale are T = (set of real number) and T = (set of integers). Any (open or closed) interval I of , is called a time scale interval. Limit set , n = 1, 2,…, Cantor set, etc. are the examples of time scale. The forward and backward jumped operators σ, are defined by , . Supplemented by = supT and = infT, where Ø denotes the empty set.
A point h is said to be right-scattered or left-scattered ifandrespectively, h is said to be isolated if it is both right and left-scattered. If and , then the point h is called right dense and left dense, respectively, and it is said to be dense if left and right dense both.
Supposeis right-scattered minimum, then, otherwise, . Supposeis left-scattered maximum, then, otherwise. Moreover,.

26])

5. Conclusions
Ostrowski inequalities are of great importance while studying the error bounds of different numerical quadrature rules, for example, the midpoint rule, Simpson’s rule, the Trapezoidal rule and other generalized Riemann types. In this article, by generalizing the inequalities [
26], we consider the new integral inequality of Hermite–Hadamard for exponentially s-preinvex functions on time scale and some novel refinements of Ostrowski type inequalities for exponentially s-preinvex functions and s-preinvex functions on time scales and some of our results unify continuous and discrete analysis in the literature and we discuss some special cases when
then Δ-integral became a classical integral. In our results, if we take
, then our results reduce to the results for preinvex function. We have also obtained applications to some special means. In the future research, the interested reader can search various new interesting inequalities from our results. Moreover, they can investigate (using our technique) applications to special means for various s-preinvex functions.
