Nov 13, 2017 at 2:50 comment added Vesselin Dimitrov @Lucia: Indeed, and also, it is worth adding that this $1.5$ lower bound can be improved. In the special case below the line, this example amounts to taking $g(t) \equiv 1$ on $[0,1]$. If instead we choose there $g(t) := (-30t^2 + 30t + 2)/7$ on $[0,1]$, we get the improved value of $977/588-\log{54/49} = 1.5644\ldots$. (I think this is best possible for a quadratic choice of $g$.)
Nov 13, 2017 at 2:31 comment added Lucia Just an observation that if $f(x) =\max(0,1-|x|)$ then the integral is $1.5$. So $1+\gamma$ is not far from the answer!
