1 Introduction
The subsequent inequalities are notable in the literature as Hermite–Hadamard’s inequality and Simpson’s inequality, respectively.
Hermite–Hadamard’s inequalities and Simpson’s inequalities have remained an area of great interest owing to their extensive applications in mathematics and other sciences. Many researchers generalized these inequalities. For recent results, for example, see [
1‐
8] and the references mentioned in these papers.
In 2013, Sarikaya et al. established the subsequent interesting Hermite–Hadamard’s inequalities by utilizing Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals.
In the case of \(\mu =1\), the fractional integral recaptures the classical integral.
Because of the extensive application of Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals, some authors extended their studies to fractional Hermite–Hadamard’s inequalities via mappings of different classes. For example, refer to [
10‐
12] for convex mappings, to [
13] for
s-convex mappings, to [
14] for
\((s,m)\)-convex mappings, to [
15] for
s-Godunova–Levin mappings, to [
16] for harmonically convex mappings, to [
17] for preinvex mappings, to [
18] for MT
m
-preinvex mappings, to [
19] for
h-convex mappings, to [
20] for
r-convex mappings, and see the references cited therein.
In 2012, Mubeen and Habibullah introduced the following class of fractional integrals.
The concept of Riemann–Liouville
k-fractional integral is an important generalization of Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals. We would like to stress here that for
\(k\neq 1\) the properties of Riemann–Liouville
k-fractional integrals are very dissimilar to those of classical Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals. Due to this, the Riemann–Liouville
k-fractional integrals have aroused many researchers’ interest. Properties and estimations for the integral inequality related to this operator can be sought out in [
22‐
27] and the references cited therein.
The main purpose of the current paper is to establish some new bounds on Hermite–Hadamard’s and Simpson’s inequalities for mappings whose absolute values of second derivatives are generalized \((m,h)\)-preinvex. To do this, the authors derive a general k-fractional integral identity along with multi parameters for twice differentiable mappings. By using this integral identity, the authors derive some new inequalities of Simpson and Hermite–Hadamard type for these mappings.
To end this section, we restate some special functions and definitions as follows.
Let us consider the following special functions:
(1)
The beta function:
$$ \begin{aligned} \beta (x,y)=\frac{\Gamma (x)\Gamma (y)}{\Gamma (x+y)}= \int ^{1}_{0}t^{x-1}(1-t)^{y-1}\,\mathrm{d}t, \quad x,y>0; \end{aligned} $$
(2)
The incomplete beta function:
$$ \begin{aligned} \beta (a;x,y)= \int ^{a}_{0}t^{x-1}(1-t)^{y-1}\,\mathrm{d}t, \quad 0< a< 1,x,y>0; \end{aligned} $$
(3)
The hypergeometric function:
$$ {}_{2}F_{1}(a,b;c;z)= \frac{1}{\beta (b,c-b)} \int ^{1}_{0} t^{b-1}(1-t)^{c-b-1}(1-zt)^{-a}\,\mathrm{d}t,\quad c>b>0,\vert z \vert < 1. $$
Clearly, if we take
\(h_{1}(t)=h(1-t)\),
\(h_{2}(t)=h(t)\) in Definition
1.7, then
f becomes generalized
\((m,h)\)-preinvex functions as follows.
It is worth mentioning here that, as far as we know, all the special cases considered above are new in the literature.
2 Main results
In order to derive our main results, we need the subsequent identity.
Using Lemma

Let us point out some special cases of Theorem
2.1.
I. If
\(h(t)=t^{s}\) in Theorem
2.1, then we have the following results.
II. If
\(h(t)=t^{-s}\) in Theorem
2.1, then we have the following results.
III. If
\(h(t)=t(1-t)\) in Theorem
2.1, then we have the following results.
IV. If
\(h(t)=\frac{\sqrt{t}}{2\sqrt{1-t}}\) in Theorem
2.1, then we have the following results.
Now, we get ready to state the second theorem as follows.
Let us point out some special cases of Theorem
2.2.
I. If
\(h(t)=t^{s}\) in Theorem
2.2, then we have the following results.
II. If
\(h(t)=t^{-s}\) in Theorem
2.2, then we have the following results.
III. If
\(h(t)=t(1-t)\) in Theorem
2.2, then we have the following results.
IV. If
\(h(t)=\frac{\sqrt{t}}{2\sqrt{1-t}}\) in Theorem
2.2, then we have the following results.
