1. Introduction
Let is a convex function, with if and only if,
[TABLE]
is well known in the literature as the Hermite–Hadamard inequality for convex function. A vast literature related to (1.1) have been produced by a large number of mathematicians [7] since it is considered to be one of the most famous inequality for convex functions due to its usefulness and many applications in various branches of Pure and Applied Mathematics, such as Numerical Analysis [5], Information Theory [3], Operator Theory [6] and others.
Very recenty, authors [9] established some new type integral inequalities for convex function via the Hermite–Hadamard inequality. This paper is a continuation of some line of authors results in [9]. Motivated by above work here, we proved some interesting new type integral inequalities for differentiable convex functions by using the Hermite–Hadamard inequality and Jensen integral inequality. As applications, we obtain some new inequality involving special means of real numbers.
In the proof of the main results we will need the following two lemmas.
Lemma 1**.**
[2*]*Let be a differentiable mapping on and with , then we have
[TABLE]
Lemma 2**.**
[8]**(Jensen inequality) Let be a probability measure and let be a convex function. Then, for all be a integrable function we have
[TABLE]
2. Main results
Now we are ready to present our main results asserted by Theorems 1 to 7.
Theorem 1**.**
Let be a differentiable mapping on with If is convex and increasing on , then the following inequality
[TABLE]
Proof.
Using integration by parts, which is verified under the conditions given in the theorem, we have
[TABLE]
0n the other hand, using the fact that the functions is convex and increasing on and the is convex and increasing on , thus the function is also convex on , as product of positive convex and increasing functions. Now, by the right hand side inequality (1.1) we deduce that inequality (2.2) is valid.
Theorem 2**.**
Let and be a differentiable mapping on with If is convex and increasing, then the following inequality
[TABLE]
Proof.
Applying the on the inequality (2.2), we have
[TABLE]
Now, we set and So, by means of Lemma 2, we get
[TABLE]
By the power–mean inequality, we have
[TABLE]
Since the functions is convex on and the is convex on , for each thus the function is also convex on , as product of positive convex functions. By again of the right hand side inequality (1.1), we have
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
According to (2.6), (2.7) and (2.8), we have
[TABLE]
Again, from the right hand side of inequality (1.1), we have
[TABLE]
In view of (2.5), (2.10) and (2.9) we obtain the desired result.
Theorem 3**.**
Let and be a differentiable mapping on with If is convex and increasing on , then the following inequality
[TABLE]
Proof.
The proof is parallel to that of Theorem 2 by replacing equation (2.8) by
[TABLE]
We omit the further details.
Remark 1**.**
Suppose that all the assumptions of Theorem 3 are satisfied with and we get
[TABLE]
where
Here, by using the classical definitions of Beta function and gamma function, we establish certain interesting and new inequalities are given by the next Theorems. For our purpose, We recall the Beta function and gamma function defined by (see [10])
[TABLE]
The Beta function satisfied the following properties:
[TABLE]
In particular, we have
[TABLE]
Theorem 4**.**
Let and suppose that has derivatives and on with If is convex on and is convex and increasing on , then the following inequality
[TABLE]
Proof.
From Lemma 1, we get
[TABLE]
where From the Hölder inequality, we obtain
[TABLE]
Since the function is convex then the function is convex as a product of two positive convex and increasing functions. So, for every we have
[TABLE]
Hence, from (2.16) and the Hölder inequality we have
[TABLE]
So, the proof of Theorem 4 is completes.
Another similar result is embodied in the following theorem.
Theorem 5**.**
Let and suppose that has derivatives and on with If is convex on and is convex and increasing on , then the following inequality
[TABLE]
holds for all
Proof.
Using the power-mean inequality, we have
[TABLE]
In the same way, we get
[TABLE]
Combining (2.14), (2.19) and (2.20) we deduce that the inequality (2.18) holds.
Theorem 6**.**
Let and suppose that has derivatives and on with If is convex on and is convex and increasing on , then the following inequality
[TABLE]
where
Proof.
Again from the Hölder inequality, we have
[TABLE]
In the same way we obtain
[TABLE]
In view of (2.25) and (2.23) we deduce that the inequality (2.24) holds true.
Theorem 7**.**
Let and suppose that has derivatives and on with If is convex and is convex and increasing on , then the following inequality
[TABLE]
where
Proof.
By using the Hölder inequality
[TABLE]
On the other hand, we get
[TABLE]
which completes the proof.
