Abstract

:
In this paper, we give new Simpson’s type integral inequalities for the class of functions whose derivatives of absolute values are s-convex via generalized proportional fractional integrals. Some results in the literature are particular cases of our results.

1. Introduction and Preliminaries

Simpson’s inequality is given by
1 3 g ( a ) + g ( b ) 2 + 2 g a + b 2 1 b a a b g ( x ) d x ( b a ) 4 2880 g 4 ,
where g : [ a , b ] R is a four times continuously differentiable function on ( a , b ) and g ( 4 ) = sup x ( a , b ) g ( 4 ) < . This inequality has been studied and generalized by many scholars see for instance [1,2,3,4,5,6,7] and references cited therein.
Definition 1.
The function g : [ 0 , ) R is a convex function if
g λ x + ( 1 λ ) y λ g ( x ) + ( 1 λ ) g ( y )
holds for ever x , y [ 0 , ] a n d λ [ 0 , 1 ] . If the inequality in Definition 1 is reversed, then g is a concave function.
Definition 2.
The function g : [ 0 , ) R is s-convex function (in the second sense) if
g λ x + ( 1 λ ) y λ s g ( x ) + ( 1 λ ) s g ( y )
for ever x , y [ 0 , ) and λ [ 0 , 1 ] .
Remark 1.
Definition 2 reduces to Definition 1 when s = 1 . In the current paper I 0 denote the interior of an interval I and L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) represent all integrable functions.
Theorem 1
([8]). Suppose that g : [ 0 , ) [ 0 , ) is an s-convex function in the second sense, where s ( 0 , 1 ) and let a , b [ 0 , ) , a < b . If g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , then we have:
2 s 1 g a + b 2 1 b a a b g ( x ) d x g ( a ) + g ( b ) s + 1 .
Definition 3
([9]). For an integrable function g on [ a , b ] , a 0 and β > 0 , the right- and left-sided Riemann–Liouville fractional integral of order β are respectively given by
J a + β g ( x ) = 1 Γ ( β ) a x ( x t ) β 1 g ( t ) d t , x > a ,
and
J b β g ( x ) = 1 Γ ( β ) x b ( t x ) β 1 g ( t ) d t , t < b ,
where Γ ( β ) = 0 e x x β 1 d x is the gamma function.
Definition 4
([10]). Suppose that the function g is integrable on [ a , b ] and δ ( 0 , 1 ] . Then for all β C , R e ( β ) 0
J a + β , δ g ( y ) = 1 δ β Γ ( β ) a y ( y u ) β 1 g ( u ) d u , y > a ,
and
J b β , δ g ( y ) = 1 δ β Γ ( β ) y b ( u y ) β 1 g ( u ) d u , y < b .
The notations J a + β , δ g ( y ) and J b β , δ g ( y ) are called respectively left- and right-sided generalized proportional fractional integral operators of order β .
Remark 2.
Definition 4 becomes the Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals given in Definition 3 for δ = 1 .
For Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals, Chen and Huang in [11] obtained the following Simpson’s type inequality for s-convex functions.
Theorem 2.
Let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | is s-convex on [ a , b ] , for some fixed s ( 0 , 1 ] , then the following inequality holds:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β g a + b 2 + J b β g a + b 2 b a 2 s + 1 M 1 ( β , s ) | g ( a ) | + | g ( b ) | ,
where
M 1 ( β , s ) = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 ( 1 + t ) s + ( 1 t ) s d t .
Theorem 3.
Let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is s-convex on [ a , b ] , for some fixed s ( 0 , 1 ] and q > 1 , then the following inequality holds:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β g a + b 2 + J b β g a + b 2 b a 2 ( s + 1 ) 1 q 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p | g ( b ) | q + | g a + b 2 | q 1 q + | g ( a ) | q + | g a + b 2 | q 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 .
Theorem 4.
Let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is s-convex on [ a , b ] , for some fixed s ( 0 , 1 ] and q > 1 , then the following inequality holds:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β g a + b 2 + J b β g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q + ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( a ) | q + | g ( b ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 .
Theorem 5.
Let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is s-convex on [ a , b ] , for some fixed s ( 0 , 1 ] and q > 1 , then the following inequality holds:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β g a + b 2 + J b β g a + b 2 b a 2 M 2 ( β ) M 3 ( β , s ) + M 4 ( β , s ) ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 and
M 2 ( β ) = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 d t 1 p , M 3 ( β , s ) = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 1 + t 2 s | g ( b ) | q + 1 t 2 s | g ( a ) | q d t , M 4 ( β , s ) = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 1 + t 2 s | g ( a ) | q + 1 t 2 s | g ( b ) | q d t .
In this paper, we introduce new Simpson’s inequalities for s-convex function in the second sense via a generalized proportional fractional integral which is the generalization of the result obtained by Chen and Huang [11]. These types of inequalities can be used to estimate the bounds of both regular and fractional integrals. The paper is organize as follows: In Section 2, we state our main results on inequalities of Simpson’s type for s-convex functions via generalized proportional fractional integral. Finally, Section 3 is devoted to the conclusion of our work.

2. Main Results

The following Lemma is required to prove our main results.
Lemma 1.
Let g : I R be an absolutely continuous mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . Then we have the following equality:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 = b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t .
Proof. 
Let
M = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t = 0 1 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t + 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a d t = M 5 + M 6 .
We compute M 5 and M 6 by using integration by parts and by change of variable. For this, we get
M 5 = 0 1 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t = 2 a b 0 1 1 3 t β 2 d g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b = 2 b a 1 6 g ( a ) + 1 3 g a + b 2 β 2 2 b a β a a + b 2 a + b 2 x β 1 g ( x ) d x = 2 b a 1 6 g ( a ) + 1 3 g a + b 2 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β 1 Γ ( β ) δ β a a + b 2 a + b 2 x β 1 g ( x ) d x = 2 b a 1 6 g ( a ) + 1 3 g a + b 2 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 .
Using similar argument as outlined above, we obtain:
M 6 = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a d t = 2 b a 1 6 g ( b ) + 1 3 g a + b 2 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J b β , δ g a + b 2 .
By adding M 5 and M 6 , we get the desired identity. □
Theorem 6.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | is s-convex on [ a , b ] , for s ( 0 , 1 ] , then the following inequalities hold:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 s + 1 M 7 ( β , s ) | g ( a ) | + | g ( b ) | b a 3 ( s + 1 ) | g ( a ) | + | g ( b ) | ,
where
M 7 ( β , s ) = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 ( 1 + t ) s + ( 1 t ) s d t .
Proof. 
Using Lemma 1 and s-convexity of | g | , we have:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t = b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 1 + t 2 s | g ( b ) | + 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( a ) | + 1 + t 2 s | g ( a ) | + 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( b ) | d t = b a 2 s + 1 0 1 t β 2 1 3 ( 1 + t ) s + ( 1 t ) s | g ( a ) | + | g ( b ) | .
This complete the proof of the first inequality of (11). The second inequality of (11) follows since t β 2 1 3 1 3 for ever t [ 0 , 1 ] and
M 7 ( β , s ) 1 3 0 1 ( 1 + t ) s + ( 1 t ) s d t = 2 s + 1 3 ( s + 1 ) ,
which proves the second inequality. □
Corollary 1.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | is convex on [ a , b ] , then the following inequalities hold:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 4 M 7 ( β , 1 ) | g ( a ) | + | g ( b ) | b a 6 | g ( a ) | + | g ( b ) | .
Proof. 
Taking s = 1 in Theorem 6 we have the result. □
Remark 3.
In Theorem 6 if we put
a.
δ = 1 , then the first inequality (11) coincide with Theorem 2 and the second inequality coincide with Corollary 8 in [12].
b.
δ = β = 1 , then the first inequality (11) coincide with Theorem 7 in [13].
Theorem 7.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is s-convex on [ a , b ] for s ( 0 , 1 ] and q > 1 , then the following inequality holds:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q s + 1 1 q + | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q s + 1 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 .
Proof. 
Using H o ¨ lder’s inequality and Lemma 1, we have
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t = b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p 0 1 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a q d t 1 q + 0 1 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b q d t 1 q .
Since | g | q is s-convex, by using change of variable and Equation (1), we have
0 1 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a q d t = 2 b a a + b 2 b | g ( x ) | q d x | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q s + 1
and
0 1 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b q d t = 2 b a a a + b 2 | g ( x ) | q d x | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q s + 1 .
Hence by using inequalities (15) and (16) we obtain
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q s + 1 1 q + | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q s + 1 1 q .
Thus, the proof is complete. □
Corollary 2.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is convex on [ a , b ] and q > 1 , then the following inequality holds:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 1 q + | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 .
Proof. 
We have the result by taking s = 1 in Theorem 7. □
Remark 4.
In Theorem 7 if we put
a.
δ = 1 , then the inequality (14) coincide with Theorem 3.
b.
δ = β = 1 , then the inequality (14) coincide with Theorem 8 in [13].
Theorem 8.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is s convex on [ a , b ] , for s ( 0 , 1 ] and q > 1 , then the following inequalities hold:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q + ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q b a 6 ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q + ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 .
Proof. 
By H o ¨ lder’s inequality, s-convexity of | g | q and Lemma 1, we get
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t = b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p 0 1 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a q d t 1 q + 0 1 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b q d t 1 q b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p [ 0 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( b ) | q + 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( a ) | q d t 1 q + 0 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( a ) | q + 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( b ) | q d t 1 q ] = b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q + ( 2 s + 1 1 ) | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 2 s ( s + 1 ) 1 q ,
which is the desired first inequality. We get the second inequality from the first inequality due to the fact that t β 2 1 3 1 3 for all t [ 0 , 1 ] and 0 1 ( 1 + t ) s d t = 2 s + 1 1 ( s + 1 ) and 0 1 ( 1 t ) s d t = 1 ( s + 1 ) .
That concludes the proof. □
Corollary 3.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is convex on [ a , b ] and q > 1 , then the following inequalities hold:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p 3 | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 4 1 q + 3 | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 4 1 q b a 6 ( 3 ) | g ( b ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 4 1 q + 3 | g ( a ) | q + | g ( a + b 2 ) | q 4 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 .
Proof. 
Taking s = 1 in Theorem 8 we get the result. □
Remark 5.
In Theorem 8 if we put
a.
δ = 1 , then the first inequality (17) coincide with Theorem 4.
b.
δ = β = 1 , then the first inequality (17) coincide with Theorem 9 in [13].
Theorem 9.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is s-convex on [ a , b ] for s ( 0 , 1 ] and q > 1 , then the following inequalities hold:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 1 + s q M 8 ( β ) M 9 ( β , s ) | g ( b ) | q + M 10 ( β , s ) | g ( a ) | q 1 q + M 9 ( β , s ) | g ( a ) | q + M 10 ( β , s ) | g ( b ) | q 1 q b a 2 1 + s q 1 3 1 p 2 s + 1 1 3 ( s + 1 ) | g ( b ) | q + 1 3 ( s + 1 ) | g ( a ) | q 1 q + 2 s + 1 1 3 ( s + 1 ) | g ( a ) | q + 1 3 ( s + 1 ) | g ( b ) | q 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 and
M 8 ( β ) = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 p d t 1 p , M 9 ( β , s ) = 0 1 t β 2 1 3 ( 1 + t ) s d t , M 10 ( β , s ) = 0 1 1 3 t β 2 ( 1 t ) s d t .
Proof. 
Using Lemma 1, s-convexity of | g | q , the power mean inequality and H o ¨ lder’s inequality, we get
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a + 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b d t b a 2 [ 0 1 t β 2 1 3 d t 1 p 0 1 t β 2 1 3 g 1 + t 2 b + 1 t 2 a q d t 1 q + 0 1 1 3 t β 2 d t 1 p 0 1 1 3 t β 2 g 1 + t 2 a + 1 t 2 b q d t 1 q ] b a 2 [ 0 1 t β 2 1 3 d t 1 p 0 1 t β 2 1 3 1 + t 2 s | g ( b ) | q + 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( a ) | q d t 1 q + 0 1 1 3 t β 2 d t 1 p 0 1 1 3 t β 2 1 + t 2 s | g ( a ) | q + 1 1 + t 2 s | g ( b ) | q d t 1 q ] = b a 2 1 + s q [ 0 1 t β 2 1 3 d t 1 p 0 1 t β 2 1 3 ( 1 + t ) s | g ( b ) | q + ( 1 t ) s | g ( a ) | q d t 1 q + 0 1 1 3 t β 2 d t 1 p 0 1 1 3 t β 2 ( 1 + t ) s | g ( a ) | q + ( 1 t ) s | g ( b ) | q d t 1 q ] ,
which completes the first inequality. We get the second inequality from the first inequality due to the facts that:
t β 2 1 3 < 1 3
for all t [ 0 , 1 ] ,
0 1 t β 2 1 3 ( 1 + t ) s d t 2 s + 1 1 3 ( s + 1 )
and
0 1 t β 2 1 3 ( 1 t ) s d t 1 3 ( s + 1 ) .
This concludes the proof. □
Corollary 4.
Let δ , β > 0 and let g : I [ 0 , ) R be a differentiable mapping on I 0 such that g L 1 ( [ a , b ] ) , where a , b I 0 with a < b . If | g | q is convex on [ a , b ] and q > 1 , then the following inequalities hold:
1 6 g ( a ) + 4 g a + b 2 + g ( b ) 2 β 1 δ β Γ ( β + 1 ) ( b a ) β J a + β , δ g a + b 2 + J b β , δ g a + b 2 b a 2 1 + s q M 8 ( β ) M 9 ( β , 1 ) | g ( b ) | q + M 10 ( β , 1 ) | g ( a ) | q 1 q + M 9 ( β , 1 ) | g ( a ) | q + M 10 ( β , 1 ) | g ( b ) | q 1 q b a 2 1 + 1 q 1 3 1 p 1 2 | g ( b ) | q + 1 6 | g ( a ) | q 1 q + 1 2 | g ( a ) | q + 1 6 | g ( b ) | q 1 q ,
where 1 p + 1 q = 1 .
Proof. 
By taking s = 1 in Theorem 9 we have the desired result. □
Remark 6.
In Theorem 9 if we put
a.
δ = 1 , then the first inequality (19) coincide with Theorem 5.
b.
δ = β = 1 , then the first inequality (19) coincide with Theorem 10 in [13].

3. Conclusions

Our results have introduced a new integral inequality of Simpson’s type integral inequalities using s-convexity via generalized proportional fractional integrals. The inequalities obtained are generalizations of Simpson’s type inequality that are given for the Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals in [13]. Similar inequalities could possibly be established for more generalized fractional integrals such as Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals of a function with respect to another generalized function and to a proportional fractional integral of a function with respect to another function.
