New Sharp Ostrowski-type Inequalities and Generalized Trapezoid-type Inequalities for Riemann–Stieltjes Integrals and their Applications

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We prove new sharp weighted generalizations of Ostrowski-type and generalized trapezoid-type inequalities for Riemann–Stieltjes integrals. Several related inequalities are deduced and investigated. New Simpson-type inequalities are obtained for the \( \mathcal{R}\mathcal{S} \)-integral. Finally, as an application, we estimate the error of a general quadrature rule for the \( \mathcal{R}\mathcal{S} \)-integral via the Ostrowski–generalized-trapezoid-quadrature formula.
