Introduction and preliminaries
Computational and Fractional Analysis are nowadays more and more at the center of mathematics and of other related sciences, either by themselves because of their rapid development, which is based on very old foundations, or because they cover a great variety of applications in the real world. In recent years, fractional calculus (FC) is applied in many phenomena in applied sciences, fluid mechanics, physics and also biology can be described as very effective using the mathematical tools of FC. The fractional derivatives have occurred in many applied sciences equations such as reaction and diffusion processes, system identification, velocity signal analysis, relaxation of damping behavior fabrics and creeping of polymer composites [1,2,26,32]. A set S ∈ R is said to be convex, if (1τ )b 1 + τ b 2 ∈ S, ∀b 1 , b 2 ∈ S, τ ∈ [0, 1].

Similarly, a function ϒ : S → R is said to be convex, if Recently, İşcan [3] introduced the class of harmonic convex functions as: A function ϒ : I ⊂ (0, +∞) → R is said to be harmonic convex, if The harmonic property has played a significant role in different fields of pure and applied sciences. In [4] the authors discussed the important role of the harmonic mean in Asian options of stock. Interestingly, harmonic means have applications in electric circuit theory.
To be more precise, the total resistance of a set of parallel resistors is just half of the total resistor's harmonic means. For example, if R 1 and R 2 are the resistances of two parallel resistors, then the total resistance is computed by the formula: which is half of the harmonic mean. Noor [5] showed that the harmonic mean also played a crucial role in developing parallel algorithms for solving nonlinear problems. The author used the harmonic means and harmonic convex functions to suggest some iterative methods for solving linear and nonlinear equations.
The theory of convexity also has a wide range of applications in other areas of pure and applied sciences. It also has a great impact on the development of the theory of inequalities. Several inequalities are consequences of the applications of convex functions. Many generalizations, variants and extensions for the convexity have attracted the attention of many researchers. An interesting result pertaining to convex functions is the trapezium inequality (Hermite-Hadamard inequality) that provides an integral average of a continuous convex function on a compact interval. This result reads as: Let ϒ : I = [b 1 , b 2 ] ⊂ R → R be a convex function, then Over the years, a variety of new generalizations of this classical result have been obtained in the literature. For example, İşcan [3] obtained a new refinement of the trapezium inequality using the class of harmonic convex functions. He derived the following version of the trapezium inequality. Let ϒ : I = [b 1 , b 2 ] ⊂ (0, +∞) → R be an harmonic convex function, then We now recall some useful definitions. For brevity, the set of integrable functions on the The left-and right-sided Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals J α b 1 respectively, and (α) is Gamma function. Also, we define J 0 -ϒ of order α, k > 0 with b 1 ≥ 0 are given as follows: respectively. 3 , z) has the following integral representation
The aim of this paper is to derive some new generalizations of fractional trapezium-like inequalities using the class of harmonic convex functions. In order to establish some of our main results, we derive three new fractional integral identities. These identities will be used as auxiliary results. Moreover, in order to show the efficiency of our main results, some applications to special means for positive different real numbers and error estimations for quadrature formulas will also be obtained. We also discuss special cases that show that our results represent significant generalizations and under suitable conditions one can obtain many other new and known results.
Before moving to the main results, let us recall some previously known concepts and results that will help us to obtain our main results. Let : [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) be a function satisfying the following conditions: 1.

Proof Since ϒ is an harmonic convex function, then Multiplying both sides by and integrating with respect to τ on [0, 1], we have This implies Now, we prove the second inequality, for this we have Adding (2.1) and (2.2) and multiplying both sides by and integrating with respect to τ on [0, 1], we have Using generalized fractional integrals, we obtain our second inequality. This completes the proof.
