New Inequalities of Gruss Type for the Stieltjes Integral and Applications

Sever Silvestru Dragomir

TL;DR

This work extends Grüss-type inequalities from the weighted Čebyšev framework to Stieltjes integrals by introducing the generalized Čebyšev functional $T(f,g;u)$ for $f,g$ continuous and $u\in BV[a,b]$ with $u(b)\neq u(a)$. It proves sharp, $\tfrac{1}{2}$-constant bounds under various conditions on $f$ and $u$ (including bounded, monotone, Lipschitz, and Hölder cases) and develops a quadrature rule $S_n(f,g;u,I_n)$ with a sharp remainder bound for approximating $\int_a^b f(t)g(t)\,du(t)$. The paper then specializes these results to weighted functionals $T_w$ and to $D(f;u)$, providing identities, positivity criteria, and numerous corollaries, thereby broadening the applicability to numerical integration and analysis of Stieltjes-type integrals. Overall, the results yield tight error estimates and practical quadrature schemes for Stieltjes integrals with diverse integrators, impacting numerical analysis and approximation theory in this domain.

Theorem 1

Let $f,g:\left[ a,b\right] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be continuous on $\left[ a,b\right]$ and $u:\left[ a,b\right] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ with $u\left( a\right) \neq u\left( b\right) .$ Assume also that there exists the real constants $m,M$ such that If $u$ is of bounded variation on $\left[ a,b\right] ,$ then we have the inequality where $\bigvee_{a}^{b}\left( u\right)$ denotes the total variati
