Abstract Some Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities for generalized k-fractional integrals (which are also named (k, s)-Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals) are obtained for a fractional integral, and an important identity is established. Also, by using the obtained identity, we get a Hermite-Hadamard type inequality.

holds. This double inequality is known in the literature as a Hermite-Hadamard integral inequality for convex functions []. Sarikaya et al. established the following results for Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals. Theorem . (see Theorem  in []) Let f : [a, b] → R be a positive function with  ≤ a < b and f ∈ L [a, b]. If f is a convex function on [a, b], then the following inequality for fractional integrals holds:  f

where kZ– := {kn : n ∈ Z– }. It is noted that the case k =  of (.) and (.) reduces to the familiar Pochhammer symbol (x)n and the gamma function . The function k is given by the following integral:

The function k defined on R+ is characterized by the following three properties: (i) k (x + k) = xk (x); (ii) k (k) = ; (iii) k (x) is logarithmically convex. It is easy to see that k (x) = k

We want to recall the preliminaries and notations of some well-known fractional integral operators that will be used to obtain some remarks and corollaries. The (k, s)-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator sk Jaα of order α >  for a realvalued continuous function f (t) is defined as (see [], p., .. Definition): α

The most important feature of (k, s)-fractional integrals is that they generalize some types of fractional integrals (Riemann-Liouville fractional integral, k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral, generalized fractional integral and Hadamard fractional integral). These important special cases of the integral operator sk Jaα are mentioned below. () For k = , the operator in (.) yields the following generalized fractional integrals defined by Katugompola in []: r α a Jt f (x) =

() Firstly by taking k = , after that by taking limit r → –+ and using L’Hôpital’s rule, the operator in (.) leads to the Hadamard fractional integral operator [, ]. That is, lim ra Jtα f (x) r→–+

(.)

(see [], p., eq. (.)). () If we take s =  in (.), operator (.), reduces to the k-Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator, which has been firstly defined by Mubeen and Habibullah in []. This relation is as follows:  x  α α Ja,k f (x) = (x – t) k – f (t) dt. (.) kk (α) a () Again, taking s =  and k = , operator (.) gives us the Riemann-Liouville fractional integration operator Jaα+ f (x) =

In recent years, these fractional operators have been studied and used to extend especially Grüss, Chebychev-Grüss and Pólya-Szegö type inequalities. For more details, one may refer to the recent works and books [, –].

2 Main results Let f : I ◦ → R be a given function, where a, b ∈ I ◦ and  < a < b < ∞. We suppose that f ∈ L∞ (a, b) such that sk Jaα+ f (x) and sk Jbα– f (x) are well defined. We define functions f˜ (x) := f (a + b – x),

x ∈ [a, b]

which is the left-hand side of inequality (.). Since f is convex, for u ∈ [, ], we have   f au + ( – u)b + f ( – u)a + bu ≤ f (a) + f (b). Multiplying both sides of (.) by α

which is the right-hand side of inequality (.). So the proof is complete.



We want to give the following function that we will use later: For α, k >  and s ∈ R \ {–}, let ∇α,s : [, ] → R be the function defined by ∇α,s (t) : =

In order to prove our main result, we need the following identity. Lemma . Let α, k >  and s ∈ RI ◦ . If f is a differentiable function on I ◦ such that f  ∈ L[a, b] with a < b, then we have the following identity: α

Using the fact that F(x) = f (x) + f˜ (x) and by simple computation, from equalities (.) and (.), we get  α  α  (bs+ – as+ ) k f (a) + f (b) (s + ) k k (α + k) s α s α – α k Ja+ F(b) + k Jb– F(a) (b – a)  (bs+ – as+ ) k    s+ α   s+ α  k = bu + ( – u)a – as+ k – bs+ – bu + ( – u)a 

If f is a differentiable function on I ◦ such that f  ∈ L[a, b] with a < b and |f  | is convex on [a, b], then   α  f (a) + f (b) (s + ) k k (α + k) s α  s α   – α k Ja+ F(b) + k Jb– F(a)    (bs+ – as+ ) k       (s, α, a, b) f (a) + f (b) , ≤ α s+ s+ (b – a ) k (b – a)

where (s, α, a, b) = (s, b, b) + (s, a, b) – (s, b, a) – (s, a, a). Proof Using Lemma . and the convexity of |f  |, we obtain   α  f (a) + f (b) (s + ) k k (α + k) s α  s α   – J F(b) + J F(a) α k a+ k b–    (bs+ – as+ ) k       (b – a) ∇α,s (t)f  ta + ( – t)b  dt ≤ α s+ s+ k (b – a )                  (b – a)         ≤ f (a) t ∇α,s (t) dt + f (b) ( – t) ∇α,s (t) dt . α (bs+ – as+ ) k  

3 Conclusions Lastly, we conclude this paper by remarking that we have obtained a Hermite-Hadamard inequality, an identity and a Hermite-Hadamard type inequality for a generalized kfractional integral operator. Therefore, by suitably choosing the parameters, one can further easily obtain additional integral inequalities involving the various types of fractional integral operators from our main results.
