Introduction
In mathematics, convex analysis holds great importance as it can be applied to numerous areas such as control theory, optimization theory, energy systems, physics, engineering applications, economics, and finance.Also, there is a strong relationship between convex analysis and integral inequalities, and these two concepts complement each other closely in terms of the properties they provide.One of the most famous inequalities in convex theory is the Hermite-Hadamard inequality, which was independently investigated by Charles Hermite and Jacques Hadamard [16,19].This inequality can be expressed as follows: where ψ : I → R is a convex function on the interval I of real numbers and ζ , ϑ ∈ I with ζ < ϑ.If ψ is concave, then both inequalities in the statement hold in the reverse direction.The Hermite-Hadamard inequality gives both upper and lower bounds for the average value of a convex function over a compact interval.This inequality finds many applications in various fields, including integral calculus, probability theory, statistics, optimization, and number theory.Additionally, it is a useful tool for solving physical and engineering problems that require determining function averages.The Hermite-Hadamard inequality is extensively researched and utilized in different areas of mathematics.As new problems arise, their applications continue to expand, making them a valuable tool for solving a broad range of mathematical problems.Also, the Hermite-Hadamard inequality is characterized by the trapezoidal and midpoint inequalities on its right and left parts.These categories of inequality have been the focus of researchers' work.Trapezoid-type inequalities for the case of convex functions were first established by Dragomir and Agarwal in [15], whereas midpoint-type inequalities for the case of convex functions were first proved by Kırmacı in [25].Since the appearance of these inequalities, there has been a lot of activity in this area [2,8,21].
Fractional calculus has a significant historical foundation.The beginnings of fractional calculus can be traced back to the correspondence between Leibniz and L'Hopital.Fractional calculus allows us to describe the behavior of complex systems more accurately, especially those that exhibit noninteger order dynamics.It extends the concepts of traditional calculus to include fractional orders.It has gained more importance and has found applications in various fields of science and engineering.Chu et al. [12] explored a deterministic-stochastic malnutrition model involving nonlinear perturbation via piecewise fractional operators techniques.Also, Chu et al. [11] put forward a numerical approach for solving an assortment of fractional-order chaotic systems.In the recent times, fractional calculus is a developing branch of mathematics that plays a significant role in capturing the dynamics of intricate systems across diverse fields of science and engineering (see [28,30,31,33]) because of the new fractional integral and derivative such as Caputo-Fabrizio [10], Atangana-Baleanu [5], tempered [34], etc.
The following is the definition of Riemann-Liouville integral operators, which are one of the fundamental fractional integral operators [24]: the Riemann-Liouville integrals of order > 0 are given by and Here, ( ) is the gamma function and Obviously, Riemann-Liouville integrals will be equal to classical integrals for the condition = 1.[38] presented the different representation of the Hermite-Hadamard inequality in terms of fractional integrals in the following manner.

then the following inequalities for fractional integrals hold: Later, Sarıkaya et al. [37] and Iqbal et al. [22] introduced several inequalities of fractional midpoint-type inequalities and the trapezoid-type inequalities for the convex functions, respectively.For other papers about fractional integral inequalities, see [7,9,17,26] and the references cited therein.
Another significant definition in fractional analysis is the following [35].
the space of functions having nth derivatives is absolutely continuous.The left-sided and right-sided Caputo fractional derivatives of order are defined as follows: and If = n ∈ {1, 2, 3, . ..} and the usual derivative ψ (n) (κ) of order n exists, then the Caputo fractional derivative C D ζ + ψ(κ) coincides with ψ (n) (κ), whereas C D ϑ -ψ(κ) with exactness to a constant multiplier (-1) n .For n = 1 and = 0, we have The Caputo derivative is defined as the application of a fractional integral to a standard derivative of the function, whereas the Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative is obtained by differentiating the fractional integral of a function with respect to its independent variable of order n.The Caputo fractional derivative necessitates more suitable initial conditions in contrast to the conventional Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative considering fractional differential equations [14].Al-Qurashi et al. [1] introduced a novel discrete, nonequilibrium, memristor-based Hindmarsh-Rose neuron (HRN) with the Caputo fractional difference scheme.Alsharidi et al. [3], utilizing a discrete Caputo fractional derivative, created the permanent magnet synchronous generator systems fractional-order concept.Besides, the operator of proportional derivative denoted as P D ψ(κ) is given by the equation [4] In this equation, K 1 and K 0 are the functions with respect to ∈ [0, 1] and s ∈ R subject to certain conditions, and also, the function ψ is differentiable with respect to s ∈ R. It is connected to the extensive and growing field of conformable derivatives.The use of this operator is a natural occurrence in the field of control theory.The importance of research conducted on both the Caputo derivative and the proportional derivative has increased significantly in recent years [18,20,23,27,29,32,39].
In [6], Baleanu et al. gave the following definition, where they merge the concepts of Caputo derivative and proportional derivative in a novel manner, resulting in a hybrid fractional operator that can be represented as a linear combination of Caputo fractional derivative and Riemann-Liouville fractional integral.Definition 3 Let ψ : I ⊂ R + → R be a differentiable function on I • and ψ, ψ be locally L 1 (I).Then the proportional Caputo-hybrid operator may be defined as follows: where ∈ [0, 1] and K 1 and K 0 are functions that satisfy the following conditions: On the other hand, Sarıkaya proposed the new definition by utilizing different K 1 and K 0 functions in the light of Definition 3 and also gave the Hermite-Hadamard inequality using this definition in [36] as follows: Definition 4 Let ψ : I ⊂ R + → R be a differentiable function on I • and ψ, ψ ∈ L 1 (I).The left-sided and right-sided proportional Caputo-hybrid operator of order are defined respectively as follows: Theorem 2 Let ψ : I ⊂ R + → R be a differentiable function on I • , the interior of the interval I, where ζ , ϑ ∈ I • with ζ < ϑ, and ψ, ψ be the convex functions on I. Then the following inequalities hold: Additionally, Demir et al. [13] introduced an alternative formulation of the Hermite-Hadamard inequality utilizing the Caputo-hybrid operator in a different approach compared to the previous theorem.This can be observed in the following expression.
The motivation of this paper is to investigate analogous versions of the Hermite-Hadamard-type inequalities with regard to Riemann integrals by using the proportional Caputo-hybrid operator.In line with this purpose, we initially present an identity with the help of the newly defined proportional Caputo-hybrid operator.This identity plays a crucial role in establishing various midpoint-type inequalities.Then, we give many significant inequalities by utilizing convexity, the Hölder inequality, and the power mean inequality.
Also, to validate our main findings, we provide concrete examples along with graphical illustrations.These results extend and generalize the inequalities derived in previous studies by considering suitable assumptions of .

Main results
We rely on the following lemma to show our other main findings.We develop various integral inequalities based on this discovery that relate to the left-hand side of Hermite-Hadamard-type inequalities for proportional Caputo-hybrid operators.
Proof By integration by parts, we have By utilizing a change of variable, multiplying the outcomes by 2 (ϑζ ) +1 2 --1 and (1 -)(ϑζ ) 2-2 -3 , and merging them side by side, we attain the following result: Another result derived using similar methods is presented here: Subtracting (4) from (3), we get Therefore, with the utilization of the equality we reach the proof 's conclusion.Remark 1 By considering the limit as → 1 in Lemma 1, it can be deduced that as demonstrated by Kırmacı [25].
Corollary 1 When we consider the limiting case of approaching 0 in Lemma 1, we find that Moreover, by selecting = 1 2 , equality (2) takes the form are convex on [ζ , ϑ] for q ≥ 1, then the following inequality holds: . Proof To begin with, consider the case where q = 1.By employing the convexity of |ψ | and |ψ |, it follows from Lemma 1 that Then, because of we have that the expression on the right-hand side of inequality ( 6) is Furthermore, for q > 1, by utilizing Lemma 1, the power mean inequality, and considering the convexity of |ψ | q and |ψ | q , we can conclude that we aimed to prove holds true.Remark 2 By taking the limit as → 1 and setting q = 1 in Theorem 4, we find that which was proved by Kırmacı [25].
Corollary 2 As approaches 0 and for q ≥ 1 in Theorem 4, we obtain Additionally, as tends to 1 and for q ≥ 1, the inequality stated in Theorem 4 simplifies to Now, as an illustration of our theorem's applicability, we present an example.
Example 1 If we take the function ψ(κ) = 2κ 3 defined on the interval [0, 2], we can evaluate the right-hand side of inequality (5) in the following manner: 12 2 1 + 2 Figure 1 clearly demonstrates that the left-hand side of inequality ( 5) is consistently situated below the right-hand side of this inequality for all ∈ (0, 1) and q ≥ 1.
Proof Using absolute value in Lemma 1 and applying the well-known Hölder's inequality and the convexity of |ψ | q , |ψ | q , we get The integrals in the inequality mentioned above can be assessed by Also, using the property that is (A -B) p ≤ A p -B p for A > B ≥ 0 and p ≥ 1, we have Hence, by substituting the computed integral results into inequality (8), the desired outcome can be attained.

Remark 3
In the special case where approaches 1 in Theorem 5, we obtain which was proved by Kırmacı in [25].
Corollary 3 In the particular case when tends to 0 in Theorem 5, we obtain In addition, by choosing = 1 2 , we get . Now, we give an example that proves the validity of the inequality established in Theorem 5 in order to illustrate it.
Example 2 Taking into account the function ψ defined in Example 1, the expression on the right-hand side of inequality ( 7) can be evaluated as follows: On the other hand, we know that Therefore, it can be seen from Fig. 2 that the left-hand side of inequality ( 7) is consistently lower than the right-hand side for all values of ∈ (0, 1) and p > 1.
