1 Introduction

Assuming that p > 1 , 1 p + 1 q = 1 , a m , b n 0 , 0 < m = 1 a m p < , and 0 < n = 1 b n q < , we have the well-known Hardy-Hilbert’s inequality with the best possible constant factor π sin π p as follows (cf. [1], Theorem 315):

(1) n = 1 m = 1 a m b n m + n < π sin π p m = 1 a m p 1 p n = 1 b n q 1 q .

In 2006, by means of Euler-Maclaurin’s summation formula, Krnić and Pečarić (cf. [2]) gave an extension of equation (1) as follows:

(2) n = 1 m = 1 a m b n ( m + n ) λ < B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) m = 1 m p ( 1 λ 1 ) 1 a m p 1 p n = 1 n q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 b n q 1 q ,

where, λ i ( 0 , 2 ] ( i = 1 , 2 ) , λ 1 + λ 2 = λ ( 0 , 4 ] , B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) is the best possible constant factor, and

B ( u , v ) = 0 t u 1 ( 1 + t ) u + v d t ( u , v > 0 )

is the beta function. For λ = 1 , λ 1 = 1 q , and λ 2 = 1 p in equation (2), we have equation (1); for p = q = 2 and λ 1 = λ 2 = λ 2 , equation (2) reduces to the inequality in Yang’s article [3].

We still had a half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality with the nonhomogeneous kernel in 1934 as follows (cf. [1], Theorem 351): if K ( x ) is decreasing function, p > 1 , 1 p + 1 q = 1 , 0 < ϕ ( s ) = 0 K ( x ) x s 1 d x < , f ( x ) 0 , and 0 < 0 f p ( x ) < , then

(3) m = 1 n p 2 0 K ( n x ) f ( x ) d x p < ϕ p 1 q 0 f p ( x ) d x .

Recently, some extensions of equation (3) were provided by Rassias and Yang [4] and Yang and Debnath [5]. In 2016, Hong and Wen [6] discussed the equivalent description of Hilbert-type inequality similar to equation (1) with the general homogeneous kernel related to some parameters and the optimal constant factors. In some studies by Hong and co-workers [715], further works are considered. In 2019, Adiyasuren et al. [16] gave an extension of equation (2) involving two partial sums. In 2023, Hong et al. [17] obtained a new more accurate half-discrete multidimensional Hilbert-type inequality involving one multiple upper limit function.

In this article, following the way of Hong et al. [17], by using the weight functions, the mid-value theorem, and the techniques of real analysis, a new reverse half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality with one partial sum involving one derivative function of higher order is obtained, which is a new idea to extend the results of Adiyasuren et al. [16] into the field of reverses. The equivalent statements of the best possible constant factor related to several parameters are considered. As applications, the equivalent forms and some particular inequalities are provided.

2 Some lemmas

In what follows, we suppose that p < 0 ( 0 < q < 1 ) , 1 p + 1 q = 1 , N = { 1 , 2 , } , m N { 0 } , λ > 0 , λ 1 ( 0 , λ ) , λ 2 ( 0 , 1 ] ( 0 , λ ) ,

k λ ( λ i ) B ( λ i , λ λ i ) ( i = 1 , 2 ) ,

λ ^ 1 λ λ 2 p + λ 1 q , λ ^ 2 λ λ 1 q + λ 2 p , v ( x ) > 0 , v ( x ) 0   ( x > 0 ) , v ( 0 + ) = 0 , and v ( ) = . We also assume that f ( m ) ( x ) is a nonnegative continuous function unless at finite points in R + ( 0 , ) , for m N , k = 1 , , m , f ( k 1 ) ( x ) are differentiable functions with f ( k 1 ) ( 0 + ) = 0 ,

f ( m ) ( x ) = o ( e t x ) ( t > 0 ; x ) ,

and for a n 0 , A n = k = 1 n a k , e t v ( n ) A n = o ( 1 ) ( n ) , f ( m ) ( x ) 0 , satisfying

(4) 0 < 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x < , 0 < n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q < .

Note. In view of the assumption, we observe that f ( k 1 ) ( x ) are nonnegative increasing in R + and f ( k 1 ) ( ) = (or constant) ( k = 1 , , m ) . If f ( k 1 ) ( ) = = f ( m 1 ) ( ) = , then we find

lim x f ( k 1 ) ( x ) e t x = = 1 t m k + 1 lim x f ( m ) ( x ) e t x = 0 ( k = 1 , , m ) ;

otherwise, there exists a least k 0 { k , , m } such that f ( k 0 1 ) ( ) = constant and

lim x f ( k 1 ) ( x ) e t x = = 1 t k 0 k lim x f ( k 0 1 ) ( x ) e t x = 0 .

Lemma 1

Define the following weight function:

(5) ω ˜ λ ( λ 2 , x ) x λ λ 2 n = 1 v λ 2 1 ( n ) v ( n ) ( x + v ( n ) ) λ ( x R + ) .

We have the following inequality:

(6) ω ˜ λ ( λ 2 , x ) < k λ ( λ 2 ) ( x R + ) .

Proof

Since v ( x ) > 0 , v ( x ) 0 , and v ( 0 + ) = 0 , it follows that v ( x )   ( x R + ) is positive increasing and v ( x ) is decreasing. For fixed x > 0 , define the following positive function g x ( t ) v λ 2 1 ( t ) v ( t ) ( x + v ( t ) ) λ ( t > 0 ) . By the assumption, g x ( t ) is strictly decreasing with respect to t R + . In view of the decreasingness property of series, we have the following inequality:

(7) n = 1 g x ( n ) < 0 g x ( t ) d t .

Setting u = v ( t ) x , we have

0 g x ( t ) d t = 0 v λ 2 1 ( t ) v ( t ) ( x + v ( t ) ) λ d t = 1 x λ 0 ( x u ) λ 2 1 ( 1 + u ) λ x d u = 1 x λ λ 2 0 u λ 2 1 ( 1 + u ) λ d u = 1 x λ λ 2 k λ ( λ 2 ) ,

and then,

ω ˜ λ ( λ 2 , x ) = x λ λ 2 n = 1 g x ( n ) < x λ λ 2 0 g x ( t ) d t = k λ ( λ 2 ) .

Then, inequality (6) follows.

The lemma is proved.□

Lemma 2

We have the following reverse Hilbert-type inequality:

(8) I λ 0 n = 1 a n f ( m ) ( x ) d x ( x + v ( n ) ) λ > ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q × 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

Proof

Setting u = x v ( n ) , for 0 < λ 1 < λ , we obtain the following expression of another weight function:

(9) ω λ ( λ 1 , n ) v λ λ 1 ( n ) 0 x λ 1 1 ( x + v ( n ) ) λ d x = 0 u λ 1 1 ( u + 1 ) λ d u = k λ ( λ 1 ) , n N .

By the reverse Hölder’s inequality (cf. [18]) and Lebesgue term by term integration theorem (cf. [18]), we have

(10) I λ = 0 n = 1 1 ( x + v ( n ) ) λ x 1 λ 1 q ( v ( n ) ) 1 p ( v ( n ) ) 1 λ 2 p f ( m ) ( x ) × ( v ( n ) ) 1 λ 2 p a n x 1 λ 1 q ( v ( n ) ) 1 p d x 0 n = 1 1 ( x + v ( n ) ) λ x ( 1 λ 1 ) ( p 1 ) v ( n ) ( v ( n ) ) 1 λ 2 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x 1 p × n = 1 0 1 ( x + v ( n ) ) λ ( v ( n ) ) ( 1 λ 2 ) ( q 1 ) x 1 λ 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 d x a n q 1 q = 0 ω ˜ λ ( λ 2 , x ) x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x n = 1 ω λ ( λ 1 , n ) ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

Then, by equations (6) and (9), equation (8) follows.

The lemma is proved.□

Lemma 3

For t > 0 and m N { 0 } , we have the following expression:

(11) 0 e t x f ( x ) d x = 1 t m 0 e t x f ( m ) ( x ) d x .

Proof

For m = 0 , equation (11) is naturally valid. For m N , by the assumption and the Note, for k = 1 , , m , we find e t x f ( k 1 ) ( x ) 0 = 0 , and

0 e t x f ( k ) ( x ) d x = 0 e t x d f ( k 1 ) ( x ) = e t x f ( k 1 ) ( x ) 0 0 f ( k 1 ) ( x ) d e t x = t 0 e t x f ( k 1 ) ( x ) d x .

By substitution of k = 1 , , m in the above expression, we obtain equation (11).

The lemma is proved.□

Lemma 4

For t > 0 , we have the following inequality:

(12) n = 1 e t v ( n ) v ( n ) A n 1 t n = 1 e t v ( n ) a n .

Proof

For x [ n , n + 1 ]   ( n N ) , and setting g ( x ) = e t v ( x ) , we obtain g ( x ) = t v ( x ) e t v ( x ) . Since v ( x ) 0 , then v ( x ) is decreasing in [ n , n + 1 ] . In view of e t v ( n ) A n = o ( 1 )   ( n ) and by Abel’s summation formula and the mid-value theorem, we have

n = 1 e t v ( n ) a n = lim n e t v ( n ) A n + n = 1 ( e t v ( n ) e t v ( n + 1 ) ) A n = n = 1 ( e t v ( n + 1 ) e t v ( n ) ) A n = n = 1 ( g ( n + 1 ) g ( n ) ) A n = n = 1 g ( n + θ ) A n = t n = 1 v ( n + θ ) e t v ( n + θ ) A n t n = 1 e t v ( n ) v ( n ) A n ( 0 < θ < 1 ) .

Hence, we have equation (12).

The lemma is proved.□

3 Main results

Theorem 1

For m N { 0 } , we have the following reverse half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality with one partial sum involving one derivative function of m-order:

(13) I 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A n f ( x ) d x ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 > Γ ( λ ) ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q × 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

In particular, for λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , we have

0 < 0 x p ( 1 λ 1 ) 1 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x < , 0 < n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q < ,

and the following reverse inequality:

(14) I = 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A n f ( x ) ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 d x > Γ ( λ ) B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) × 0 x p ( 1 λ 1 ) 1 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

Proof

Since

1 ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 = 1 Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) 0 t λ + m e ( x + v ( n ) ) t d t ,

and by Lebesgue term-by-term integration theorem (cf. [19]) and (11), we have

I = 1 Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A n f ( x ) 0 t λ + m e ( x + v ( n ) ) t d t d x = 1 Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) 0 t λ + m 0 e x t f ( x ) d x n = 1 e v ( n ) t v ( n ) A n d t 1 Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) 0 t λ 1 0 e x t f ( m ) ( x ) d x n = 1 e v ( n ) t a n d t = 1 Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) 0 n = 1 a n f ( m ) ( x ) 0 t λ 1 e ( x + v ( n ) ) t d t d x = Γ ( λ ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) 0 n = 1 a n f ( m ) ( x ) ( x + v ( n ) ) λ d x .

Then, by equation (10), we have equation (13). For λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , equation (13) reduces to equation (14).

The theorem is proved.□

Theorem 2

If λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , then the constant factor

Γ ( λ ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q

in equation (13) is the best possible. On the other hand, if the same constant factor in equation (13) is the best possible, then for

λ λ 1 λ 2 ( q λ 2 , q ( λ λ 2 ) ) ( q λ 2 , q ( 1 λ 2 ) ] ,

we have λ 1 + λ 2 = λ .

Proof

If λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , then, equation (13) reduces to equation (14).

For any 0 < ε < min { p λ 2 , q λ 2 } , we set a ˜ n ( v ( n ) ) λ 2 ε q 1 v ( n ) , n N ,

f ˜ ( m ) ( x ) = 0 , 0 < x 1 , i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p x λ 1 ε p 1 , x > 1 , f ˜ ( m k ) ( x ) = 0 x 0 t k 0 t 2 f ˜ ( m ) ( t 1 ) d t 1 d t k 1 d k 0 ( k = 1 , , m ) ,

where we indicate that i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p = 1 for m = 0 . We find

A ˜ n k = 1 n a ˜ k = k = 1 n ( v ( k ) ) λ 2 ε q 1 v ( k ) < 0 n ( v ( x ) ) λ 2 ε q 1 v ( x ) d x = ( v ( n ) ) λ 2 ε q λ 2 ε q = o ( e t v ( n ) ) ( t > 0 ; n ) .

We obtain that for m N , f ˜ ( k 1 ) ( x ) are differentiable functions with f ˜ ( k 1 ) ( 0 + ) = 0 ( k = 1 , , m ) , f ( m ) ( x ) = o ( e t x ) ( t > 0 ; x ) , and f ˜ ( x ) = 0 ( 0 < x 1 ) ,

f ˜ ( x ) = i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p 1 x 1 t m 1 t 2 t 1 λ 1 ε p 1 d t 1 d t m 1 d t m i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p 0 x 0 t m 0 t 2 t 1 λ 1 ε p 1 d t 1 d t m 1 d t m = x λ 1 ε p + m 1 ( x > 1 ) .

If there exists a constant M Γ ( λ ) B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) such that equation (14) is valid, when we replace Γ ( λ ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) by M , then in particular, we have

(15) I ˜ 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A ˜ n f ˜ ( x ) ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 d x > M 0 x p ( 1 λ 1 ) 1 ( f ˜ ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a ˜ n q 1 q .

By the decreasingness property of series, we have

I ˜ > M i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p 1 x p ( 1 λ 1 ) 1 x p λ 1 ε p d x 1 p × n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q λ 2 ε q v ( n ) 1 q = M i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p 1 x ε 1 d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) ε 1 v ( n ) 1 q M i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p 1 x ε 1 d x 1 p 1 ( v ( y ) ) ε 1 v ( y ) d y 1 q = M ε i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p ( v ( 1 ) ) ε q .

Replacing λ by λ + m + 1 , and setting λ ˜ 1 λ 1 + m ε p ( 0 , λ + m ) and λ ˜ 2 λ 2 + 1 + ε p ( 0 , λ + 1 ) in equation (5), we have

I ˜ = 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A ˜ n f ˜ ( x ) d x ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 1 λ 2 ε q n = 1 1 ( v ( n ) ) λ 2 ε q v ( n ) x λ 1 ε p + m 1 d x ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 = 1 λ 2 ε q n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 λ ˜ 1 1 x λ ˜ 1 1 d x ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m + 1 ( v ( n ) ) ε 1 v ( n ) .

Hence, by equation (6), we obtain

I ˜ 1 λ 2 ε q n = 1 ω λ + m + 1 ( n , λ ˜ 1 ) ( v ( n ) ) ε 1 v ( n ) 0 = k λ + m + 1 ( λ ˜ 1 ) λ 2 ε q ( v ( 1 ) ) ε 1 v ( 1 ) + n = 2 ( v ( n ) ) ε 1 v ( n ) < k λ + m + 1 ( λ ˜ 1 ) λ 2 ε q ( v ( 1 ) ) ε 1 v ( 1 ) + 1 ( v ( y ) ) ε 1 v ( y ) d y = k λ + m + 1 ( λ ˜ 1 ) ε ( λ 2 ε q ) [ ε ( v ( 1 ) ) ε 1 v ( 1 ) + ( v ( 1 ) ) ε ] .

Based on the above results, we have

k λ + m + 1 ( λ ˜ 1 ) λ 2 ε q [ ε ( v ( 1 ) ) ε 1 v ( 1 ) + ( v ( 1 ) ) ε ] > ε I ˜ > M i = 0 m 1 λ 1 + i ε p ( v ( 1 ) ) ε q .

For ε 0 + , in view of the continuity of the beta function, we obtain

1 λ 2 B ( λ 1 + m , λ 2 + 1 ) M i = 0 m 1 ( λ 1 + i ) ,

namely,

Γ ( λ ) B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) = Γ ( λ 1 ) Γ ( λ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) = Γ ( λ 1 + m ) Γ ( λ 2 ) Π i = 0 m 1 ( λ 1 + i ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) = B ( λ 1 + m , λ 2 + 1 ) λ 2 Π i = 0 m 1 ( λ 1 + i ) M .

Hence, M = Γ ( λ ) B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) is the best possible constant factor in equation (14).

On the other hand, for λ ^ 1 = λ λ 2 p + λ 1 q , λ ^ 2 = λ λ 1 q + λ 2 p = λ 2 + λ λ 1 λ 2 q , we have

λ ^ 1 + λ ^ 2 = λ λ 2 p + λ 1 q + λ λ 1 q + λ 2 p = λ .

and then, For λ λ 1 λ 2 ( q λ 2 , q ( λ λ 2 ) ) , we have 0 < λ ^ 2 < λ , 0 < λ ^ 1 = λ λ ^ 2 < λ , and Γ ( λ ) B ( λ ^ 1 , λ ^ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) R + . For λ λ 1 λ 2 q ( 1 λ 2 ) , we still have λ ^ 2 1 . By substitution of λ ^ i = λ i ( i = 1 , 2 ) in equation (14), we have

(16) I = 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A n ( f ( x ) ) d x ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + m > Γ ( λ ) B ( λ ^ 1 , λ ^ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) × 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 ( f ( m ) ( x ) ) p d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

By the reverse Hölder’s inequality (cf. [18]), we find

(17) B ( λ ^ 1 , λ ^ 2 ) = k λ λ λ 2 p + λ 1 q = 0 u λ λ 2 p + λ 1 q 1 ( 1 + u ) λ d u = 0 1 ( 1 + u ) λ u λ λ 2 1 p u λ 1 1 q d u 0 u λ λ 2 1 ( 1 + u ) λ d u 1 p 0 u λ 1 1 ( 1 + u ) λ d u 1 q = 0 v λ 2 1 ( v + 1 ) λ d v 1 p 0 u λ 1 1 ( 1 + u ) λ d u 1 q = ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q .

Since Γ ( λ ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q is the best possible constant factor in equation (13), by equation (16), we have

Γ ( λ ) ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q Γ ( λ ) B ( λ ^ 1 , λ ^ 2 ) Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) ( R + ) ,

namely, B ( λ ^ 1 , λ ^ 2 ) ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q . It follows that equation (17) keeps the form of equality.

We observe that equation (17) keeps the form of equality if and only if there exist constants A and B (cf. [18]), such that they are not both zero and A u λ λ 2 = B u λ 1 a.e. in R + . Assuming that A 0 , we find u λ λ 1 λ 2 = B A a.e. in R + , namely, λ λ 1 λ 2 = 0 . Hence, we have λ 1 + λ 2 = λ .

The theorem is proved.□

4 Equivalent forms and some particular inequalities

For m = 0 in equation (13), we have

(18) I = 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A n f ( x ) ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + 1 d x > 1 λ ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q × 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 f p ( x ) d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

In particular, for λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , we have

(19) I = 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A n f ( x ) ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + 1 d x > 1 λ B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) × 0 x p ( 1 λ 1 ) 1 f p ( x ) d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

Theorem 3

We have the following reverse half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality equivalent to equation (18):

(20) J 0 x q λ ^ 1 1 n = 1 v ( n ) A n ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + 1 q d x 1 q > 1 λ ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

In particular, for λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , we have the following inequality equivalent to equation (19):

(21) 0 x q λ 1 1 n = 1 v ( n ) A n ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + 1 q d x 1 q > 1 λ B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q .

Proof

Suppose that equation (20) is valid. By the reverse Hölder’s inequality (cf. [18]), we have

(22) I = 0 ( x 1 q λ ^ 1 f ( x ) ) x 1 q + λ ^ 1 n = 1 v ( n ) A n ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + 1 d x > 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 f p ( x ) d x 1 p J ,

Then, by equation (20), we have equation (18).

On the other hand, assuming that equation (18) is valid, we set

f ( x ) x q λ ^ 1 1 n = 1 v ( n ) A n ( x + v ( n ) ) λ + 1 q 1 , x R + .

It follows that

(23) 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 f p ( x ) d x = J q = I .

If J = , then equation (20) is naturally valid; if J = 0 , then it is impossible to make equation (20) valid, namely, J > 0 . Suppose that 0 < J < . By equation (18), we have

> 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 f p ( x ) d x = J q = I > 1 λ ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 f p ( x ) d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q , J = 0 x p ( 1 λ ^ 1 ) 1 f p ( x ) d x 1 q > 1 λ ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ ^ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q ,

namely, equation (20) follows, which is equivalent to equation (18).

The theorem is proved.□

Theorem 4

If λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , then the constant factor

1 λ ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q

in equation (20) is the best possible. On the other hand, if the same constant factor in equation (20) is the best possible, then for

λ λ 1 λ 2 ( q λ 2 , q ( λ λ 2 ) ) ( q λ 2 , q ( 1 λ 2 ) ] ,

we have λ 1 + λ 2 = λ .

Proof

If λ 1 + λ 2 = λ , then by Theorem 2, for m = 0 , the constant factor

1 λ ( k λ ( λ 2 ) ) 1 p ( k λ ( λ 1 ) ) 1 q

in equation (18) is the best possible. The constant factor in equation (20) is still the best possible. Otherwise, by equation (22), we would reach a contradiction that the constant in equation (18) is not the best possible.

On the other hand, if the same constant factor in equation (20) is the best possible, then, by the equivalency of equations (20) and (18), in view of J q = I (see the proof of Theorem 3), we can still show that the constant factor in equation (18) is the best possible. By the assumption and Theorem 2 (for m = 0 ), we have λ 1 + λ 2 = λ .

The theorem is proved.□

Replacing x by 1 x in equations (19) and (21), and setting g ( x ) = x λ 1 f 1 x , we have 0 < 0 x p λ 2 1 g p ( x ) d x < and Corollary 1 as follows:

Corollary 1

The following equivalent inequalities with the nonhomogeneous kernel are valid:

(24) 0 n = 1 v ( n ) A n g ( x ) ( 1 + x v ( n ) ) λ + 1 d x > 1 λ B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) 0 x p λ 2 1 g p ( x ) d x 1 p n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q ,

(25) 0 x q ( λ 2 + 1 ) 1 n = 1 v ( n ) A n ( 1 + x v ( n ) ) λ + 1 q d x 1 q > 1 λ B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) n = 1 ( v ( n ) ) q ( 1 λ 2 ) 1 ( v ( n ) ) q 1 a n q 1 q ,

where the constant factor 1 λ B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) is the best possible.

Remark 2

For α ( 0 , 1 ] , and setting v ( t ) = ln α ( t + 1 ) , t R + , we find v ( t ) = α ln α 1 ( t + 1 ) t + 1 > 0 and v ( t ) = α ln α 2 ( t + 1 ) ( t + 1 ) 2 [ α 1 ln ( t + 1 ) ] < 0 , t R + . By equation (14), we have

(26) 0 n = 1 ln α 1 ( n + 1 ) A n f ( x ) [ x + ln α ( n + 1 ) ] λ + m + 1 ( n + 1 ) d x > Γ ( λ ) B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) 0 x p ( 1 m λ 1 ) 1 F m p ( x ) d x 1 p n = 1 ln q ( 1 α λ 2 ) 1 ( n + 1 ) ( n + 1 ) 1 q a n q 1 q ,

where, the constant factor Γ ( λ ) B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p Γ ( λ + m + 1 ) is the best possible. In particular, for m = 0 , we have the following equivalent inequalities with the best possible constant factor B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p λ :

(27) 0 n = 1 ln α 1 ( n + 1 ) A n f ( x ) [ x + ln α ( n + 1 ) ] λ + 1 ( n + 1 ) d x > B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p λ 0 x p ( 1 λ 1 ) 1 F m p ( x ) d x 1 p n = 1 ln q ( 1 α λ 2 ) 1 ( n + 1 ) ( n + 1 ) 1 q a n q 1 q ,

(28) 0 x q λ 1 1 ln α 1 ( n + 1 ) A n [ x + ln α ( n + 1 ) ] λ + 1 ( n + 1 ) q d x 1 q > B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p λ n = 1 ln q ( 1 α λ 2 ) 1 ( n + 1 ) ( n + 1 ) 1 q a n q 1 q .

By Corollary 1, we still have the following equivalent inequalities with the best possible constant factor B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p λ :

(29) 0 n = 1 ln α 1 ( n + 1 ) A n g ( x ) [ 1 + x ln α ( n + 1 ) ] λ + 1 ( n + 1 ) d x > B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p λ 0 x p λ 2 1 g p ( x ) d x 1 p n = 1 ln q ( 1 α λ 2 ) 1 ( n + 1 ) ( n + 1 ) 1 q a n q 1 q ,

(30) 0 x q ( λ 2 + 1 ) 1 n = 1 ln α 1 ( n + 1 ) A n [ 1 + x ln α ( n + 1 ) ] λ + 1 ( n + 1 ) q d x 1 q > B ( λ 1 , λ 2 ) α 1 + 1 p λ n = 1 ln q ( 1 α λ 2 ) 1 ( n + 1 ) ( n + 1 ) 1 q a n q 1 q .

5 Conclusion

In this article, a new reverse half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality with one partial sum involving one derivative function of higher order is obtained, by using the weight functions, the mid-value theorem, and the techniques of real analysis in Theorem 1. The equivalent statements of the best possible constant factor related to some parameters are considered in Theorem 2. As applications, the equivalent forms are provided in Theorems 3 and 4 and Corollary 1, and some particular inequalities are deduced in Remark 2. The lemmas and theorems provide an extensive account of this type of inequalities.
