1. Introduction
The inequality of Ostrowski [7] gives us an estimate for the deviation of the values of a smooth function from its mean value. More precisely, if
is a differentiable function with bounded derivative, then
for every
. Moreover the constant
is the best possible. For a differentiable function
,
, Dragomir has in [2] proved, using Pompeiu's mean value theorem [6], the following Ostrowski type inequality:
where
and
In [4], Pecaric and Ungar proved a general estimate with the
-norm,
, which will for
give the Dragomir [2] result. The interested reader is also referred to ([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8]) for integral inequalities by using Pompeiu's mean value theorem. In this paper, we establish some new integral inequalities similar to that of the Ostrowski type integral inequality for two variables functions via Pompeiu's mean value theorem.
2. Main Results
First we give the following notations used to simplify the details of presentation
and
To prove our theorems, we need the following lemma:
Lemma 2.1.

exists for all
with
Then for any
we have
 | (2.1) |
Proof. Define
by
. The function
is continuously differentiable on
, and for all
we get
 | (2.2) |
Using the change of the variable in last integrals with
and
we get
Denote
and
Then for all
from (2.2), we have
which gives (2.1) and completes the proof.
Theorem 2.1

any
we have
 | (2.3) |
where
,
and
for all 
Proof From Lemma 2.1, we have
 | (2.4) |
Integrating with respect to
on
and dividing by
we get
and therefore
 | (2.5) |
Firstly, we will consider the case
By using Hölder's inequality, the sum in the last line (2.5) is
 | (2.6) |
The first factor in (2.6) equals
 | (2.7) |
and for the second factor, for
we get
 | (2.8) |
For
instead of (2.8), we obtain
 | (2.9) |
which is easily shown to be equal to the limit of the right hand side of (2.8) for
, i.e.
Now, consider the case
Then, the last line in (2.5) is
 | (2.10) |
Putting (2.10) into (2.5) and dividing by
gives
Finally, we consider the case
then, the last line of (2.5) is
 | (2.11) |
Appending (2.11) to (2.5) and dividing by
gives
 | (2.12) |
It is not too difficult to show that
so (2.12) proves formula (2.3) for
proving the theorem.
heorem 2.2
be an absolutely continuous function such that the partial derivative of order
exists for all
with
and let
be a nonnegative integrable function. Then for
with
any
we have
 | (2.13) |
Proof Multiplying (2.4) by
and integrating with respect to
on
, we have
and as in the proof of Theorem 2.1, we get
which gives (2.13).
