A modified class of Ostrowski-type inequalities and error bounds of Hermite–Hadamard inequalities

This paper aims to extend the application of the Ostrowski inequality, a crucial tool for figuring out the error bounds of various numerical quadrature rules, including Simpson’s, trapezoidal, and midpoint rules. Specifically, we develop a more comprehensive class of Ostrowski-type inequalities by utilizing the weighted version of Riemann–Liouville (RL) fractional integrals on an increasing function. We apply our findings to estimate the error bounds of Hadamard-type inequalities. Our results are more comprehensive, since we obtain the results of the existing literatures as particular cases for certain parameter values. This research motivates researchers to apply this concept to other fractional operators.
