Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The theory of inequalities represents a long-standing topic in many mathematical areas and remains an attractive research domain with many applications. This Special Issue brings together original research papers in all areas of mathematics that are concerned with inequalities or their role. The research results presented in this Special Issue are related to the improvement of classical inequalities and highlight their applications, promoting an exchange of ideas between mathematicians from many parts of the world dedicated to the theory of inequalities.

For example, the study of convex functions has occupied a central role in the theory of inequalities because such functions develop a series of inequalities. In number theory, a number of inequalities characterize arithmetic functions. Other important types of inequalities are those related to invertible positive operators that have applications in operator equations, network theory and quantum information theory (inequalities for generalized entropies).

Please note that all submitted papers should be within the scope of the Symmetry journal.

This study deals with a novel class of mean-type inequalities by employing fractional calculus and convexity theory. The high correlation between symmetry and convexity increases its significance. In this paper, we first establish an identity that is crucial in investigating fractional mean inequalities. Then, we establish the main results involving the error estimation of the Hermite–Hadamard inequality for composite convex functions via a generalized Riemann-type fractional integral. Such results are verified by choosing certain composite functions. These results give well-known examples in special cases. The main consequences can generalize many known inequalities that exist in other studies. Full article

Integral inequalities concerned with convexity have many applications in several fields of mathematics in which symmetry plays an important role. In the theory of convexity, there exist strong connections between convexity and symmetry. If we are working on one of the concepts, then it can be applied to the other of them. In this paper, we establish some novel generalizations of Ostrowski type inequalities for exponentially s-preinvex and s-preinvex functions on time scale by using Hölder inequality and Montgomery Identity. We also obtain applications to some special means. These results are motivated by the symmetric results obtained in the recent article by Abbasi and Anwar in 2022 on Ostrowski type inequalities for exponentially s-convex functions and s-convex functions on time scale. Moreover, we discuss several special cases of the results obtained in this paper. Full article

It is well known that the Hermite–Hadamard inequality (called the HH inequality) refines the definition of convexity of function f(x) defined on [a,b] by using the integral of f(x) from a to b. There are many generalizations or refinements of HH inequality. Furthermore HH inequality has many applications to several fields of mathematics, including numerical analysis, functional analysis, and operator inequality. Recently, we gave several types of refined HH inequalities and obtained inequalities which were satisfied by weighted logarithmic means. In this article, we give an N-variable Hermite–Hadamard inequality and apply to some norm inequalities under certain conditions. As applications, we obtain several inequalities which are satisfied by means defined by symmetry. Finally, we obtain detailed integral values. Full article

In this work, some numerical radius inequalities based on the recent Dragomir extension of Furuta’s inequality are obtained. Some particular cases are also provided. Among others, the celebrated Kittaneh inequality reads: wT12T+T*. It is proved that wT12T+T*12infx=1Tx,x12T*x,x122, which improves on the Kittaneh inequality for symmetric and non-symmetric Hilbert space operators. Other related improvements to well-known inequalities in literature are also provided. Full article

Inequalities play important roles not only in mathematics but also in other fields, such as economics and engineering. Even though many results are published as Hermite–Hadamard (H-H)-type inequalities, new researchers to these fields often find it difficult to understand them. Thus, some important discoverers, such as the formulations of H-H-type inequalities of α-type real-valued convex functions, along with various classes of convexity through differentiable mappings and for fractional integrals, are presented. Some well-known examples from the previous literature are used as illustrations. In the many above-mentioned inequalities, the symmetrical behavior arises spontaneously. Full article
