Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The concept of inequality, which is based on the problem of comparing two quantities, has become one of the most important tools of mathematical sciences with its applications and usage areas. The concept of inequality, which strengthens the connection of mathematical sciences with applied sciences such as physics, engineering, numerical analysis and statistics, has been used in many different fields such as convex analysis, convex programming, approximation theory, special functions, fractional analysis and quantum analysis, and has brought new orientations to these fields.

In this context, while inequalities contribute to mathematical sciences in theoretical and applied terms, the aesthetic structure of the findings and the symmetrical patterns they contain are reflected in the studies of researchers in this field. Symmetrical patterns, as they exist in the nature of inequalities, have started to gain more prominence in the literature, especially with the advantages of convex function types.

The main purpose of this Special Issue is to create a collection of new and influential results that will reveal the connections of inequalities between mathematical and applied sciences. Thus, besides contributing to inequalities, special functions and many related fields, a new perspective will be gained to applied sciences and natural phenomena. The functionality and effectiveness of the inequality theory will be discussed and a contribution to the literature will be made in this sense.

In this Special Issue, research articles that contribute to the literature will be included by focusing on the findings and applications containing special functions, inequalities and symmetrical patterns. We invite all researchers to contribute to the Special Issue with original research articles containing new motivating ideas, new trends and directions.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Computational Methods via inequalities
  • Integral inequalities with applications
  • Fractional integral inequalities
  • Mathematical Modeling and Optimization
  • Inequalities via Quantum calculus
  • Discrete inequalities
  • Majorization problems
  • Symmetry on inequalities
  • Special functions
  • Inclusions, inequalities and applications
  • Stochastic Analysis and Modeling
  • Integral inequalities for interval-valued functions
  • Inequalities via Fuzzy integrals
  • Approximation Theory and Its Applications

In the current study, we provide a novel qualitative new subclass of analytical and bi-univalent functions in the symmetry domain U defined by the use of Gegenbauer polynomials. We derive estimates for the Fekete–Szegö functional problems and the Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients a2 and a3 for the functions that belong to each of these new subclasses of the bi-univalent function classes. Some more results are revealed after concentrating on the parameters employed in our main results. Full article

The aim of this paper is to provide new upper bounds of ω(T), which denotes the numerical radius of a bounded operator T on a Hilbert space (H,·,·). We show the Aczél inequality in terms of the operator |T|. Next, we give certain inequalities about the A-numerical radius ωA(T) and the A-operator seminorm TA of an operator T. We also present several results related to the A-numerical radius of 2×2 block matrices of semi-Hilbert space operators, by using symmetric 2×2 block matrices. Full article

In this article, we provide constraints for the sum by employing a generalized modified form of fractional integrals of Riemann-type via convex functions. The mean fractional inequalities for functions with convex absolute value derivatives are discovered. Hermite–Hadamard-type fractional inequalities for a symmetric convex function are explored. These results are achieved using a fresh and innovative methodology for the modified form of generalized fractional integrals. Some applications for the results explored in the paper are briefly reviewed. Full article

Symmetrical patterns exist in the nature of inequalities, which play a basic role in theoretical and applied mathematics. In several studies, inequalities present accurate approximations of functions based on their symmetry properties. In the paper, we prove the completely monotonic (CM) property of some functions involving the function Δ(l)=ψ(l)+ψ(l)2 and hence we deduce a new double inequality for it. Additionally, we study the CM degree of some functions involving the function ψ(l). Our new bounds takes priority over some of the recently published results. Full article

Symmetrical patterns exist in the nature of inequalities, which play a basic role in theoretical and applied mathematics. In several studies, inequalities present accurate approximations of functions based on their symmetry properties. In this paper, we present the following rational approximations for Bateman’s G-function G(w)=1w+2w2+j=1n4αjw22j1+O1w2n+2, where α1=14, and αj=(122j+2)B2j+2j+1+ν=1j1(122j2ν+2)B2j2ν+2ανjν+1,j>1. As a consequence, we introduced some new bounds of G(w) and a completely monotonic function involving it. Full article

In this paper, Hardy–Leindler, Hardy–Yang and Hwang type inequalities are extended on time scales calculus. These extensions are depending upon use of symmetric multiple delta integrals. The target is achieved by utilizing some inequalities in literature along with mathematical induction principle and Fubini’s theorem on time scales. The obtained inequalities are discussed in discrete, continuous and quantum calculus in search of applications. Particular cases of proved results include Hardy, Copson, Hardy–Littlewood, Levinson and Bennett-type inequalities for symmetric sums. Full article

We introduce the class of Rγ-convex functions and discuss that it relates to some other classes of convexity. We study the class of Rγ-convex functions in the perspective of trapezium-like inequalities, for which we also derive a new integral identity involving a k-th order differentiable function. In order to show the significance of our results, we also discuss several special cases and offer some interesting applications. Full article

The theory of symmetry has a significant influence in many research areas of mathematics. The class of symmetric functions has wide connections with other classes of functions. Among these, one is the class of convex functions, which has deep relations with the concept of symmetry. In recent years, the Schur convexity, convex geometry, probability theory on convex sets, and Schur geometric and harmonic convexities of various symmetric functions have been extensively studied topics of research in inequalities. The present attempt provides novel portmanteauHermite–Hadamard–Jensen–Mercer-type inequalities for convex functions that unify continuous and discrete versions into single forms. They come as a result of using Riemann–Liouville fractional operators with the joint implementations of the notions of majorization theory and convex functions. The obtained inequalities are in compact forms, containing both weighted and unweighted results, where by fixing the parameters, new and old versions of the discrete and continuous inequalities are obtained. Moreover, some new identities are discovered, upon employing which, the bounds for the absolute difference of the two left-most and right-most sides of the main results are established. Full article
