1. Introduction
The research significance of singular kernel integral inequality is that it provides a theoretical framework for dealing with integral equations with singular kernels, which is widely used in mathematical analysis, physics, engineering and other fields. Such inequalities can help to analyze and solve systems with singular properties, especially in describing nonlinear and non-smooth problems. Its practical value is reflected in several aspects: in signal processing, image reconstruction, quantum mechanics, fluid dynamics and other fields, singular kernel integral inequalities can be used to describe complex physical phenomena, such as electromagnetic fields, particle propagation, etc. In addition, it also plays an important role in numerical analysis and optimization algorithms, helping to improve the solution efficiency and accuracy. Through in-depth study of these inequalities, we can promote the modeling, analysis and solution of practical problems. Singular integral inequality is a very important part in the theory of differential equations, and a series of results have been obtained in this field.
For example, in 1981, Henry [1] proposed a linear integral inequality with a singular kernel, shown as follows:
The results can be used to study the qualitative property equations of parabolic differentials.
In 1997, [2] gave a new method to study linear and nonlinear singular integral Gronwall-Bellman-Bihari-type inequality and Henry-type inequality, which is shown as follows:
and the estimates of the solutions are given separately.
In 2002, Ma and Yang [3] studied more generalized weakly singular Volterra-type integral inequalities using the improved method. It looks like this:
In 2008, Wu [4] studied a class of weakly odd Volterra-type integral inequalities with n nonlinear terms, which are shown as follows:
Thereafter, in 2008, Cheung et al. [5] respectively studied the following binary weakly singular Wendroff-type integral inequalities by applying the method in reference [3], which are shown as follows:
On this basis, in 2010, Wang and Zheng [6] discussed a more general form of nonlinear Wendroff-type weakly singular integral inequality for a class of binary functions, which is shown as follows:
In 2013, Wu et al. [7] studied a new class of weakly singular Wendroff-type integral inequalities, which are shown as follows:
Subsequently, in 2014, the weakly singular Wendroff-type integral inequalities of two nonlinear terms were studied in [8], which are shown as follows:
On the basis of Zheng [6] and Wu [8], in 2017, Liu [9] studied a class of weakly singular Wendroff-type integral inequalities with n nonlinear terms, which are shown as follows:
In 2024, Yang [10] studied a class of generalized Wendroff-type weakly singular integral inequalities, which are shown as follows:
More work on singular integral inequalities is emerging, see ref. [14–16]. It can be seen that with the development of integral and differential equations, some new integral inequalities need to be considered in order to meet the wider application of differential and integral equations. In this paper we focus on Wendroff-type integral inequalities and their application to the study of well-posed solutions of differential and integral equations.
On the basis of reference [3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10], this paper considers the weakly singular Wendroff-type integral inequality of multiple variables with n nonlinear terms as follows.
Before this, we need to study the estimation of the solution of a class of Wendroff-type integral inequalities as a theorem that can be used to refer to. Secondly, combined with the modified Medved method, we can obtain the estimation of unknown functions of Wendroff-type weakly singular integral inequalities. Finally, it is applied to study the boundedness, uniqueness and continuous dependence of solutions of fractional partial differential equations.

4. Application
[i] In this section, we consider the following boundary value problem (BVP) for delayed fractional partial differential equations:
for . Where , , the functions , , and satisfy the condition , , , , , , .
The operator denotes the Caputo fractional function and is its order. With Definitions 2 and 3, we know that
In the following, we will discuss the boundedness, uniqueness and continuity of the solution of Equation (1) in turn. To obtain the conditions for boundedness, we first present the estimated solution of Equation (1).
Considering that the functions , and in equation BVP (59) are all bounded, suppose that
where , satisfies assumption condition . The estimation of in equation BVP(59) can be obtained as follows.
where
Proof.
According to the definition of Caputo fractional partial derivative in reference [13], equation BVP (59) can be transformed into the following equivalent integral equation.
for . Where Where function is defined in Equation (63) and function is defined in Equation (67). Substituting Equation (60) into Equation (70) and setting , , , we can deduce
Clearly, Inequality (71) satisfies the form of Equation (1) in Theorem 1, and the conditions - are all assumed to hold. Therefore, the estimated Equation (61) for can be obtained from Theorem 1. Note that since the functions , , are all bounded functions, the holding of equations (68) and (69) implies that the conditions , are assumed to be satisfied, thus reusing the boundedness proof of the estimated solution in Theorem 1, we can show that is bounded.
Next, we will discuss the uniqueness of the solution of Equation BVP (59). For all , suppose
where , satisfies assumption condition . Suppose that both and are solutions of Equation BVP (59), then there is at most one solution of equation BVP (59) on .
Proof.
By equivalent integral Equation (70) and setting , , , we can deduce
Clearly, Inequality (73) satisfies the form of Equation (1) in Theorem 1, similar to the proof of the boundedness of solutions, it can be verified that the discovery hypothesis conditions - are all true.
Using Theorem 1 for Equation (70), it can be obtained
where , , are respectively defined in Equation (62), Equation (65), Equation (66), and Equation (67). It can be found that , such that . Combining the definition of and the properties of , can be obtained
Since Equations (67) and (68) both hold, then we have
Therefore, the conclusion is obtained from Equation (74), that is, there is on . Therefore, the uniqueness of the solution to equation BVP (59) is proved.
Finally, we will discuss the continuous dependence of the solution of equation BVP (59) on the given functions U, , , . Consider another delayed fractional partial differential equation BVP:
for . Where , , , . Suppose that the function U satisfies Equation (68) on a finite interval , , , and , . Then the solution in BVP (72) is sufficiently close to the solution in BVP (59).
Proof.
Using the uniqueness of the estimated solution , for arbitrarily small constant , assume
By the equivalent integral Equation (70) as well as Equations (63) and (67), and setting , , , we can deduce
Clearly, Inequality (77) satisfies the form of Equation (1) in Theorem 1, applying Equation (77), we can obtain that
where
, , are respectively defined in Equation (62), Equation (65), Equation (66), and Equation (67). It can be concluded that when , . Finally, through equations (75) and (78), we can obtain:
Thus, the continuity of the solution of the equation has been proven.
[ii] Consider the following inequality
for , , . Let , , , , . From and , we get ; And then from , we can take . It’s easy to compute from . Let , , , , again, it follows that is monotonically nondecreasing.
Obviously, Equation (75) satisfies the conditions in Theorem 2, so it is easy to calculate from Theorem 2 as follows.
Since , , so , , . Therefore, Theorem 2 of this paper can be obtained
for , , . Which implies that in Equation (79) is bounded.
