Abstract

:
In the present paper, we investigate some Hermite-Hadamard ( HH ) inequalities related to generalized Riemann-Liouville fractional integral ( GRLFI ) via exponentially convex functions. We also show the fundamental identity for GRLFI having the first order derivative of a given exponentially convex function. Monotonicity and exponentially convexity of functions are used with some traditional and forthright inequalities. In the application part, we give examples and new inequalities for the special means.

1. Introduction

Recently, several researchers have attracted the fractional calculus, see References [1,2,3,4]. The effect and motivation of this fractional calculus in both theoretical and applied science and engineering rose substantially. Numerous studies related to the discrete versions of this fractional calculus have been established, which benefit from countless applications in the theory of time scales, physics, different fields of engineering, chemistry and so forth (e.g, see References [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32] and the references therein).
A few decades ago, a lot of new operator definitions were given and the properties and structures of these operators have been examined. Some of these operators are very close to classical operators in terms of their characteristics and definitions. It is known that the GRLFI , which was introduced in reference [33], extends several well-known fractional integral operators (see Remark 1 below). Both the generalized Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative and the integral operator are useful in the study of transform theory, quantum theory and fractional intgerodifferential equations.
Almost every mathematician knows the importance of convexity theory in every field of mathematics, for example in nonlinear programming and optimization theory. By using the concept of convexity, several integral inequalities have been introduced such as Jensen, HH and Slater inequalities, and so forth. But the well-known one is the celebrated HH inequality.
Let I R be an interval and U : I R be a convex function. Then the double inequality
U d 1 + d 2 2 1 d 2 d 1 d 1 d 2 U ( x ) d x U ( d 1 ) + U ( d 2 ) 2 ,
holds for all d 1 , d 2 I with d 1 < d 2 . It is easy to see that if U is concave on I , one has the reverse of this inequality. This inequality provides bounds for the mean value of a convex function. Recently, mathematicians have focused on obtaining new variants of the HH inequality by giving generalizations, improvements, refinements and extensions, see References [34,35,36].
Exponentially convex functions have emerged as a significant new class of convex functions, which have important applications in technology, data science and statistics. The main motivation of this paper depends on new inequalities that have been proved via GRLFI and applied for exponentially convex functions. This identity offers new upper bounds and estimations of HH    type integral inequalities. Some particular cases have been discussed, which can be deduced from these consequences.
Recall the definition of an exponentially convex function, which is investigated by Dragomir and Gomm [34]:
Definition 1.
(See [34]) A positive real-valued function U : K R ( 0 , ) is said to be exponentially convex on K if the inequality
e U ( τ x + ( 1 τ ) y ) τ e U ( x ) + ( 1 τ ) e U ( y )
holds for x , y K and τ [ 0 , 1 ] .
Exponentially convex functions are used to manipulate for statistical learning, sequential prediction and stochastic optimization, see References [37,38,39].
After the class of exponentially convex functions was introduced by Dragomir and Gomm [34], Alirezai and Mathar [37] have investigated the mathematical perspectives along with their fertile applications in statistics and information theory, see References [37,39]. Due to its significance, Pecaric and Jaksetic [40,41] used another kind of exponentially convex function introduced in Reference [42] and have provided some applications in Euler-Radau expansions and stolarsky means. Our intention is to use the exponentially convexity property of the functions as well as the absolute values of their derivatives in order to establish estimates for GRLFI .
Definition 2.
([1,2,3]) Let ( d 1 , d 2 ) ( d 1 < d 2 ) be a finite or infinite real interval and ρ > 0 . Let Ψ ( x ) be an increasing and positive monotone function on ( d 1 , d 2 ] with a continuous derivative on ( d 1 , d 2 ) . Then the left and right-sided generalized Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals of a function U on [ d 1 , d 2 ] are defined by
I d 1 + ρ , Ψ U ( τ ) = 1 Γ ( ρ ) d 1 τ Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) ρ 1 U ( x ) d x ,
and
I d 2 ρ , Ψ U ( τ ) = 1 Γ ( ρ ) τ d 2 Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ 1 U ( x ) d x ,
respectively; with Γ ( . ) , the classical gamma function.
Remark 1.
Many known defined fractional integral operators are just special cases of (2) and (3).
1. 
Setting U ( τ ) = τ , it turns into the both sided ( R L I ) .
2. 
Setting U ( τ ) = log τ , the Hadamard fractional integrals are obtained [1,3].
3. 
Setting U ( τ ) = τ β β , β > 0 it turns into the both sided Katugampola fractional integrals given in Reference [33].
4. 
Setting U ( τ ) = ( τ a ) β β , β > 0 , the operators in reference [43] are obtained.
5. 
Setting U ( τ ) = τ ϵ + ς ϵ + ς , it turns into the both sided generalized conformable fractional integrals defined by Khan et al. in reference [44].
The principal objective of this paper is to use a new convex class and a new integral operator to obtain new versions of HH -inequality that give bounds for the mean value of convexity. Also, we will establish some more general estimates and related modulus inequalities for GRLFI via exponentially convex functions. In addition, the accuracy of the results was tested with applications of special means and with some examples.

2. HH Inequality for GRLFI

Theorem 1.
Let U : [ d 1 , d 2 ] R be a positive function, for 0 d 1 < d 2 , and e U L 1 ( [ d 1 , d 2 ] ) . Let Ψ ( x ) is an increasing and positive monotone function on ( d 1 , d 2 ] , with continuous derivative Ψ ( x ) on ( d 1 , d 2 ) . Let U is an exponentially convex function and ρ ( 0 , 1 ) . Then
e U d 1 + d 2 2 Γ ( ρ + 1 ) ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) 2 .
Proof. 
Since U is an exponentially convex function for [ d 1 , d 2 ] , we have
e U u + v 2 e U ( u ) + e U ( v ) 2 .
Let u = τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 and v = ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 , we get
2 e U d 1 + d 2 2 e U ( τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 ) + e U ( ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 ) .
Multiplying by τ ρ 1 on both sides of inequality (6) and then integrating w.r.t τ over [ 0 , 1 ] , implies
2 ρ e U d 1 + d 2 2 0 1 τ ρ 1 e U ( τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 ) d τ + 0 1 τ ρ 1 e U ( ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 ) d τ .
Now consider,
Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) = Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ 1 Γ ( ρ ) [ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) d 2 Ψ ( z ) ρ 1 ( e U Ψ ) ( z ) d z + Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) Ψ ( z ) d 1 ρ 1 ( e U Ψ ) ( z ) d z ] = ρ 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ [ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) d 2 Ψ ( z ) ρ 1 e U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z + Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) Ψ ( z ) d 1 ρ 1 e U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z ] = ρ 2 0 1 τ ρ 1 e U ( τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 ) d τ + 0 1 τ ρ 1 e U ( ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 ) d τ e U d 1 + d 2 2 ,
by using (7). Thus the first inequality of (4) is proved.
Next, we again use the exponential convexity of U , that is,
e U ( τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 ) + e U ( ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) .
Multiplying by τ ρ 1 on both sides of inequality (8), and then integrating w.r.t τ over [ 0 , 1 ] , implies
0 1 τ ρ 1 e U ( τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 ) d τ + 0 1 τ ρ 1 e U ( ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 ) d τ e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) ρ .
That is,
Γ ( ρ + 1 ) ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) 2 .
Hence the proof is completed. □
Our next result is the subsequent lemma, which is useful for our coming results.
Lemma 1.
Let U : [ d 1 , d 2 ] R be a differentiable mapping, for 0 d 1 < d 2 , and e U L 1 ( [ d 1 , d 2 ] ) . Let Ψ ( x ) is an increasing and positive monotone function on ( d 1 , d 2 ] , with continuous derivative Ψ ( x ) on ( d 1 , d 2 ) and ρ ( 0 , 1 ) . Then
e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) 2 Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) = 1 2 [ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) Ψ ( z ) d 1 d 2 d 1 ρ e U Ψ ( z ) U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) d 2 Ψ ( z ) d 2 d 1 ρ e U Ψ ( z ) U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z ] .
Proof. 
Consider
I = d 2 d 1 2 0 1 ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ e U ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 U ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 d τ = d 2 d 1 2 [ 0 1 ( 1 τ ) ρ e U ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 U ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 d τ 0 1 τ ρ e U ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 U ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 d τ ] .
By making a change of variable in the above equation Ψ ( z ) = ( 1 τ ) d 1 + τ d 2 , we have
I = 1 2 [ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) d 2 Ψ ( z ) d 2 d 1 ρ e U Ψ ( z ) U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) Ψ ( z ) d 1 d 2 d 1 ρ e U Ψ ( z ) U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z ] = I 1 + I 2 .
Now
Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) = ρ 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ ψ 1 ( d 1 ) ψ 1 ( d 2 ) ψ ( z ) d 2 ψ ( z ) ρ 1 e U ψ ( z ) d z = 1 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ ψ 1 ( d 1 ) ψ 1 ( d 2 ) e U ψ d d 2 ψ ( z ) ρ = 1 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ e U ( d 1 ) + ψ 1 ( d 1 ) ψ 1 ( d 2 ) ψ ( z ) d 2 Ψ ( z ) ρ e U ψ ( z ) U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z = e U ( d 1 ) 2 + I 1
and
Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) = ρ 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) ψ 1 ( d 2 ) ψ ( z ) Ψ ( z ) d 1 ρ 1 e U Ψ ( z ) d z = 1 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) ψ 1 ( d 2 ) e U ψ d Ψ ( z ) d 1 ρ = 1 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ e U ( d 2 ) Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) Ψ ( z ) Ψ ( z ) d 1 ρ e U ψ ( z ) U ( Ψ ( z ) ) d z = e U ( d 2 ) 2 I 2 .
It follows that
e U ( d 2 ) + e U ( d 1 ) 2 I 1 I 2 = I .
This completes the proof. □
Theorem 2.
Let U : [ d 1 , d 2 ] R be a differentiable mapping, for 0 d 1 < d 2 , and e U L 1 ( [ d 1 , d 2 ] ) . Let Ψ ( x ) be an increasing and positive monotone function on ( d 1 , d 2 ] , with continuous derivative Ψ ( x ) on ( d 1 , d 2 ) and ρ ( 0 , 1 ) . If | U | q is exponentially convex and q 1 , then
| e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) 2 Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) | d 2 d 1 2 2 ρ + 1 1 1 2 ρ 1 1 q 1 ρ + 3 1 1 2 ρ + 2 1 q | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | q + | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | q 1 q .
Proof. 
First note that, for every z Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) , we have d 1 < Ψ ( z ) < d 2 . Let τ = d 2 Ψ ( z ) d 2 d 1 , then we have Ψ ( z ) = τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 . Applying Lemma 1, H o ¨ lder’s inequality and exponentially convexity of | U | , we obtain
| e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) 2 Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) | 1 2 Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) | Ψ ( z ) d 1 d 2 d 1 ρ d 2 Ψ ( z ) d 2 d 1 ρ | | e U Ψ ( z ) | d U ( Ψ ( z ) ) = d 2 d 1 2 0 1 | ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ | d τ 1 1 q 0 1 | ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ | | e U ( τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 ) U ( τ d 1 + ( 1 τ ) d 2 ) | q d τ 1 q d 2 d 1 2 0 1 | ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ | d τ 1 1 q × 0 1 | ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ | | τ | e U ( d 1 ) | q + ( 1 τ ) | e U ( d 2 ) | q { τ | U ( d 1 ) | q + ( 1 τ ) | U ( d 2 ) | q } d τ 1 q = d 2 d 1 2 2 ρ + 1 1 1 2 ρ 1 1 q ( 0 1 | ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ | [ τ 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | q + ( 1 τ ) 2 | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | q + τ ( 1 τ ) | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 2 ) | q + | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 1 ) | q ] d τ ) 1 q = d 2 d 1 2 2 ρ + 1 1 1 2 ρ 1 1 q × 0 1 | ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ | τ 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | q + ( 1 τ ) 2 | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | q + τ ( 1 τ ) Δ ( d 1 , d 2 ) d τ 1 q : = d 2 d 1 2 2 ρ + 1 1 1 2 ρ 1 1 q ( S 1 + S 2 ) .
where
S 1 : = 0 1 2 ( 1 τ ) ρ τ ρ τ 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | q + ( 1 τ ) 2 | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | q + τ ( 1 τ ) Δ ( d 1 , d 2 ) d τ , S 2 : = 1 2 1 τ ρ ( 1 τ ) ρ τ 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | q + ( 1 τ ) 2 | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | q + τ ( 1 τ ) Δ ( d 1 , d 2 ) d τ .
Now
0 1 2 τ 2 ( 1 τ ) ρ d τ = 1 2 1 τ ρ ( 1 τ ) 2 d τ = β 1 2 ( 3 , ρ + 1 ) , 0 1 2 τ ρ ( 1 τ ) 2 d τ = 1 2 1 τ 2 ( 1 τ ) ρ d τ = β 1 2 ( ρ + 1 , 3 ) , 0 1 2 τ ρ + 2 d τ = 1 2 1 ( 1 τ ) ρ + 2 d τ = 1 ( ρ + 3 ) 2 ρ + 3 , 0 1 2 ( 1 τ ) ρ + 2 d τ = 1 2 1 τ ρ + 2 d τ = 1 ρ + 3 1 ( ρ + 3 ) 2 ρ + 3 , 0 1 2 ( 1 τ ) ρ + 1 τ τ ρ + 1 ( 1 τ ) d τ = β 1 2 ( ρ + 2 , 2 ) β 1 2 ( 2 , ρ + 2 ) = 0 , 1 2 1 τ ρ + 1 ( 1 τ ) ( 1 τ ) ρ + 1 τ d τ = β 1 2 ( ρ + 2 , 2 ) β 1 2 ( 2 , ρ + 2 ) = 0 .
By substituting the above integral values in (12) and after some simplification, we get the required inequality (13). □
Corollary 1.
Letting q = 1 , then under the assumption of Theorem 2, we have
| e U ( d 1 ) + e U ( d 2 ) 2 Γ ( ρ + 1 ) 2 ( d 2 d 1 ) ρ I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U Ψ Ψ 1 ( d 1 ) | d 2 d 1 2 1 ρ + 3 1 1 2 ρ + 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | .
Proof. 
Since Ψ is differentiable and strictly increasing function, we can write Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ 1 Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 , where as x [ d 1 , d 2 ] and τ [ d 1 , x ] , ρ 1 , and Ψ ( τ ) > 0 . Then, the subsequent inequality holds true
Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ 1 Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 .
By exponentially convexity of U , we have
e U ( τ ) x τ x d 1 e U ( d 1 ) + τ d 1 x d 1 e U ( x ) .
From (14) and (15), one has
d 1 x Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ 1 e U ( τ ) d τ Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 x d 1 e U ( d 1 ) d 1 x ( x τ ) Ψ ( τ ) d τ + e U ( x ) d 1 x ( τ d 1 ) Ψ ( τ ) d τ .
By using (2) of Definition 2, we get
Γ ( ρ ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 x d 1 ( x d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) d 1 x Ψ ( τ ) d τ .
Now for x [ d 1 , d 2 ] , τ [ x , d 2 ] and δ 1 , the subsequent inequality holds true
Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) δ 1 Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ 1 .
By exponentially convexity of U , we have
e U ( τ ) τ x d 2 x e U ( d 2 ) + d 2 τ d 2 x e U ( x ) .
Adopting the same procedure as we did for (14) and (15), one can get from (17) and (18) the coming inequality
Γ ( δ ) I d 2 δ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ 1 d 2 x ( d 2 x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( x ) x d 2 Ψ ( τ ) d τ .
From inequalities (16) and (19), we get (13). Hence the proof is completed. □
Particular cases are stated as follows.
Corollary 2.
Choosing ρ = δ in (13), then we have a new inequality for GRLFI ;
Γ ( ρ ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) + Γ ( ρ ) I d 2 ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 x d 1 ( x d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) d 1 x Ψ ( τ ) d τ + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) ρ 1 d 2 x ( d 2 x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( x ) x d 2 Ψ ( τ ) d τ .
Corollary 3.
Choosing x = d 1 and x = d 2 in (13), adding the resulting inequalities, then the conditions of Theorem 1 are satisfied, we have
Γ ( ρ ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( d 2 ) + Γ ( δ ) I d 2 δ , Ψ e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ 1 d 2 d 1 × ( d 2 d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) [ e U ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) ] d 1 d 2 Ψ ( τ ) d τ .
Corollary 4.
If we take ρ = δ in (20), then we get the following inequality for GRLFI
Γ ( ρ ) I d 1 + ρ + 1 , Ψ Ψ ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ + 1 , Ψ Ψ ( d 1 ) 2 Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 d 2 d 1 × ( d 2 d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) [ e U ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) ] d 1 d 2 Ψ ( τ ) d τ .
Theorem 3.
Let U , Ψ : [ d 1 , d 2 ] R be the functions such that e U be differentiable function, Ψ is also differentiable and strictly increasing with Ψ L 1 ( [ d 1 , d 2 ] ) . Then for ρ , δ > 0 , x [ d 1 , d 2 ] we have
| Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) + Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 + δ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ e U ( d 1 ) + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ e U ( d 2 ) | Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | 3 + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) + Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | 3 + Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) Δ ( d 1 , x ) + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) Δ ( d 2 , x ) 6 ,
where
Δ ( d 1 , x ) = | e U ( x ) U ( d 1 ) | + | e U ( d 1 ) U ( x ) | ,
Δ ( d 2 , x ) = | e U ( x ) U ( d 2 ) | + | e U ( d 2 ) U ( x ) | .
respectively.
Proof. 
From the convexity of | ( e U ) | , we obtain
| e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) | x τ x d 1 | e U ( d 1 ) | + τ d 1 x d 1 | e U ( x | x τ x d 1 | U ( d 1 ) | + τ d 1 x d 1 | U ( x ) | x τ x d 1 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + τ d 1 x d 1 2 | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + x τ x d 1 τ d 1 x d 1 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( x ) | + | e U ( x ) U ( d 1 ) | = x τ x d 1 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + τ d 1 x d 1 2 | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + x τ x d 1 τ d 1 x d 1 Δ ( d 1 , x ) .
From (24), we have
e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) x τ x d 1 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + τ d 1 x d 1 2 | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + x τ x d 1 τ d 1 x d 1 Δ ( d 1 , x ) .
Since Ψ is a differentiable and strictly increasing function, we have the subsequent inequality
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ Ψ ( ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ,
where as x [ d 1 , d 2 ] and τ [ d 1 , x ] , ρ > 0 .
From (25) and (26), one has
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) 2 ( x τ ) 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + ( τ d 1 ) 2 | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + ( x τ ) ( τ d 1 ) Δ ( d 1 , x ) .
Integrating over [ d 1 , x ] , we have
d 1 x Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) d τ Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | d 1 x ( x τ ) 2 d τ + | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | d 1 x ( τ d 1 ) 2 d τ + Δ ( d 1 , x ) d 1 x ( x τ ) ( τ d 1 ) d τ = Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + Δ ( d 1 , x ) 6 ,
and
d 1 x Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) d τ = e U ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ | d 1 x + ρ d 1 x Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ 1 e U ( τ ) Ψ ( τ ) d τ = e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ + Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) .
Therefore (28) takes the form
Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + Δ ( d 1 , x ) 6
Also from (24), one has
e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) x τ x d 1 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + τ d 1 x d 1 2 | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + x τ x d 1 τ d 1 x d 1 Δ ( d 1 , x ) .
Following the same procedure as we did for (25), we also have
e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + Δ ( d 1 , x ) 6
From (29) and (31), we get
| Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ | Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) 2 | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + Δ ( d 1 , x ) 6 .
By convexity of | ( e U ) | , we have
| e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) | τ x d 2 x 2 | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | + d 2 τ d 2 x 2 | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + τ x d 2 x d 2 τ d 2 x Δ ( d 2 , x ) .
Now for x [ d 1 , d 2 ] and τ [ x , d 2 ] and δ > 0 , the following inequality holds true
Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) δ Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ .
Following the same way as we have done for (25), (26) and (30) we can get from (33) and (34) the subsequent inequality
| Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 + δ , Ψ e U ( x ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ | Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) 2 | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | + | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | + Δ ( d 2 , x ) 6 .
From inequalities (32) and (35) using triangular inequality, we get (21) which is desired. □
Particular cases are stated as follows.
Corollary 5.
Choosing ρ = δ in (21), then we have a new inequality for GRLFI
| Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) + I d 2 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ e U ( d 1 ) + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) ρ e U ( d 2 ) | Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) ρ ( d 2 x ) | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | 3 + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) ρ ( d 2 x ) + Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | 3 + Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) Δ ( d 1 , x ) + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) ρ ( d 2 x ) Δ ( d 2 , x ) 6 .
To prove our next result we need the following Lemma.
Lemma 3.
Suppose that U : [ d 1 , d 2 ] R is an exponentially convex function which is symmetric about d 1 + d 2 2 . Then we have
e U d 1 + d 2 2 e U ( x ) , x [ d 1 , d 2 ] .
Proof. 
Write
d 1 + d 2 2 = 1 2 x d 1 d 2 d 1 d 2 + d 2 x d 2 d 1 d 1 + 1 2 x d 1 d 2 d 1 d 1 + d 2 x d 2 d 1 d 2 .
Since e U is convex, therefore we have
e U d 1 + d 2 2 1 2 e U x d 1 d 2 d 1 d 2 + d 2 x d 2 d 1 d 1 + 1 2 e U x d 1 d 2 d 1 d 1 + d 2 x d 2 d 1 d 2 = 1 2 e U ( x ) + e U ( d 1 + d 2 x ) .
Also, e U is symmetric about d 1 + d 2 2 , therefore we have e U ( x ) = e U ( d 1 + d 2 x ) and the inequality in (36) holds. □
Theorem 4.
Suppose that U : [ d 1 , d 2 ] R be an exponentially convex function such that e U is positive convex and symmetric about d 1 + d 2 2 , Ψ is a differentiable and strictly increasing function having Ψ L 1 ( [ d 1 , d 2 ] ) . Then ρ , δ > 0 , we have
e U d 1 + d 2 2 Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ + 1 ρ + 1 + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ + 1 δ + 1 Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ + 1 , Ψ Ψ ( d 2 ) + Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 δ + 1 , Ψ Ψ ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ d 2 d 1 × ( d 2 d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) d 1 d 2 Ψ ( τ ) d τ .
Proof. 
Since Ψ is differentiable and strictly increasing function therefore Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ , where as x [ d 1 , d 2 ] , δ > 0 , and Ψ ( x ) > 0 . Hence, the following inequality holds true
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ .
From the exponential convexity of U , it can be obtained
e U ( x ) x d 1 d 2 d 1 e U ( d 2 ) + d 2 x d 2 d 1 e U ( d 1 ) .
From (38) and (39), one can have
d 1 d 2 e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ d x Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ d 2 d 1 e U ( d 2 ) d 1 d 2 ( x d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) d x + e U ( d 1 ) d 1 d 2 ( d 2 x ) Ψ ( x ) d x .
By using (2) of Definition 2, we get
Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 δ + 1 , Ψ e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ d 2 d 1 ( d 2 d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) [ e U ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) ] d 1 d 2 Ψ ( x ) d x .
Now for x [ d 1 , d 2 ] , τ [ x , d 2 ] and ρ > 0 , the following inequality holds true
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) ρ Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ .
Adopting the same procedure as we did for (38) and (39) one can get from (40) and (42) the subsequent inequality
Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ + 1 , Ψ e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ d 2 d 1 ( d 2 d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) [ e U ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) ] d 1 d 2 Ψ ( x ) d x .
From (41) and (43), we get
Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 δ + 1 , Ψ e U ( d 1 ) + Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ + 1 , Ψ e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ d 2 d 1 × ( d 2 d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( b ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) d 1 d 2 Ψ ( x ) d x .
Using Lemma 3 and multiplying (36) with Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ Ψ ( x ) and integrating over [ d 1 , d 2 ] , we get
e U d 1 + d 2 2 d 1 d 2 Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ Ψ ( x ) d x d 1 d 2 e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ Ψ ( x ) d x .
By using (2) of Definition 2 we get
e U d 1 + d 2 2 Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) δ + 1 δ + 1 Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 δ , Ψ e U ( d 1 ) .
Similarly, using Lemma 3 and multiplying (36) with Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) ρ Ψ ( x ) and integrating over [ d 1 , d 2 ] , we get
e U d 1 + d 2 2 Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ + 1 ρ + 1 Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ + 1 , Ψ e U ( d 2 ) .
From (44) and (47), we get (37) which is the required result.
Corollary 6.
Choosing ρ = δ in (37), then we have a new inequality for GRLFI
2 Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ + 1 ρ + 1 e U ( d 1 + d 2 2 ) Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ + 1 , Ψ Ψ ( d 2 ) + I d 2 ρ + 1 , Ψ Ψ ( d 1 ) 2 Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 d 2 d 1 × ( d 2 d 1 ) e U ( d 2 ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) [ e U ( d 2 ) e U ( d 1 ) ] d 1 d 2 Ψ ( τ ) d τ .

3. Examples

Example 5.
Let d 1 = 2 , d 2 = 4 , ρ = 2 , δ = 2 , U ( x ) = 2 ln x , e U ( x ) = x 2 , Ψ ( x ) = x 2 and x [ 2 , 4 ] . Then all the assumptions in Theorem 1 are satisfied.
Clearly,
Γ ( ρ ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) = d 1 x Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ 1 e U ( τ ) d τ = 2 2 3 ( 9 τ 2 ) τ 3 d t 70.83 ,
and
Γ ( δ ) I d 2 δ , Ψ e U ( x ) = x d 2 Ψ ( t ) Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) ρ 1 e U ( τ ) d τ = 2 3 4 ( τ 2 9 ) τ 3 d τ 334.83 .
Adding the above equations, we have the left-hand side term of (13)
Γ ( ρ ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) + Γ ( δ ) I d 2 δ , Ψ e U ( x ) 405.66 .
On the other hand,
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ 1 x d 1 ( x d 1 ) Ψ ( x ) e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) Ψ ( d 1 ) e U ( x ) e U ( d 1 ) d 1 x Ψ ( τ ) d τ + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ 1 d 2 x ( d 2 x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) e U ( d 2 ) e U ( x ) x d 2 Ψ ( τ ) d τ = ( 9 4 ) 3 2 ( 3 2 ) [ 9 ( 9 ) 4 ( 4 ) ] ( 9 4 ) 2 3 τ 2 d τ + ( 16 9 ) 4 3 ( 4 3 ) [ 16 ( 16 ) 9 ( 9 ) ] ( 16 9 ) 3 4 τ 2 d τ = 166.675 + 620.83 785.50 .
It is nice to see that the following implications hold in (48) and (49),
405.66 < 785.50 .
Example 6.
Let d 1 = 2 , d 2 = 4 , ρ = 2 , δ = 2 , U ( x ) = 2 ln x , e U ( x ) = x 2 , Ψ ( x ) = x 2 and x [ 2 , 4 ] . where Δ ( x , d 1 ) and Δ ( x , d 2 ) are given in (22) and (23), respectively. Then all the assumptions in Theorem 3 are satisfied.
Clearly,
Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ e U ( a ) = d 1 x Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( τ ) ρ e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) d τ = 2 2 3 τ ( 9 τ 2 ) 2 d τ 41.67
and
Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 δ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ e U ( d 2 ) = x d 2 Ψ ( τ ) Ψ ( x ) δ e U ( τ ) U ( τ ) d τ = 2 3 4 τ ( τ 2 9 ) 2 d τ 114.33 ,
Adding the above equations, we get the left-hand term of (21)
| Γ ( ρ + 1 ) I d 1 + ρ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ e U ( d 1 ) + Γ ( δ + 1 ) I d 2 δ , Ψ e U ( x ) Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ e U ( d 2 ) | = 41.67 + 114.33 156 .
Next,
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | 3 = ( 9 4 ) 2 ( 3 2 ) | 4 ( 2 2 ) | + ( 16 9 ) 2 ( 4 3 ) | 16 ( 2 4 ) | 3 = 164 ,
Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) + Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | 3 = ( 16 9 ) 2 ( 4 3 ) + ( 9 4 ) 2 ( 3 2 ) 3 | 9 ( 2 3 ) | = 148 ,
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) Δ ( d 1 , x ) + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) Δ ( d 2 , x ) 6 172.47 .
Adding the above equations we get the right-hand side term of (21)
Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( d 1 ) U ( d 1 ) | + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) | e U ( d 2 ) U ( d 2 ) | 3 + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) + Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) | e U ( x ) U ( x ) | 3 + Ψ ( x ) Ψ ( d 1 ) ρ ( x d 1 ) Δ ( d 1 , x ) + Ψ ( d 2 ) Ψ ( x ) δ ( d 2 x ) Δ ( d 2 , x ) 6 = 164 + 148 + 172.47 484.47 .
It is nice to see that the following implications hold (50) and (51),
156 < 484.47 .

4. Applications

We consider the following special means for arbitrary real numbers μ , ν , μ ν :
A ( μ , ν ) = μ + ν 2 , μ , ν R , H ( μ , ν ) = 2 μ ν μ + ν , μ , ν R \ { 0 } , L ( μ , ν ) = ν μ ln | ν | ln | μ | , | μ | | ν | , μ ν 0 , L n ( μ , ν ) = ν n + 1 μ n + 1 ( n + 1 ) ( ν μ ) , n Z \ { 1 , 0 } , μ , ν R , μ ν .

5. Conclusions

In this article, we have investigated a few fractional integral inequalities for GRLFI via exponentially convexity. These inequalities have bounds of the sum of left-sided and right-sided fractional integrals and inequalities for the function, and their first derivative in absolute value is exponentially convex. Also, fractional inequalities of HH type for a symmetric and exponentially convex function are proved. These estimates, bounds and inequalities exist for all fractional operators are stated in Remark 1. The method followed to produce fractional inequalities is innovative and simple. It could be followed to broaden further consequences for other classes of functions related to exponentially convex functions, using convenient fractional integral operators.
