Jul 8, 2010 at 15:07 comment added Peter Shor There's a real equivalent to the enumerative combinatorics method of showing that the quantity counts something. This would be: show that the quantity represents some probability. Then it's automatically non-negative (and in fact, it's between 0 and 1, so you get two inequalities)
