Abstract

In this paper, we establish a new characterization of weights in dynamic inequality of Wirtinger’s type involving higher order delta derivatives on time scales. More precisely, conditions on nonnegative rd-continuous weighted functions u and υ are given which ensure that a mixed norm dynamic inequality of the form

ψ σ 𝕃 u q q ( [ a , ) 𝕋 ) C ψ Δ n 𝕃 υ p p ( [ a , ) 𝕋 ) ,

holds for 1 < p q p , p = p p - 1 and ψ C r d ( n ) ( [ a , ) 𝕋 , ) . As a special case, these results encompass the results obtained for integral inequalities when 𝕋 = , for the discrete inequalities when 𝕋 = , and for the quantum inequalities of quantum series when 𝕋 = q .
