and Applied Analysis 3 Next we present auxiliary statements which play important roles in proving the main results. Define F : 0,∞ → R by F x Φ x/q−1/q −Φ 1−1/x and h : Φ −∞ q ,∞ → R by h x x 1 − q1−α [ 1 − ( 1 ( q − 1 ) Φ−1 x )1−α] . 2.1 For y : q0 → R \ {0} define the operator L by L [ y ] t Φ ( y ( q2t ) qy ( qt ) − 1 q ) −Φ ( 1 − y t
