Extremizing sequence consists of two elements

Let $\mathcal A_{s}$ be the set of sequences $X=(x_m)_{m \in I}$ where $I=\{1,2,...,n\}$ with $n \ge 2$ and possibly $n =\infty$ is an index set with $x_1=0$, $x_2=s>0$ and $x_m>x_{m-1}$ for $m,...

An inequality about binomial distribution

Statement Assume that $\sigma,R\in (1,+\infty)$, $N\in\mathbb{N}^*$, $p\in (0,1)$, $n_1\in\{0,1,2,\cdots,N-1\}$. Prove or disprove that $$B^\frac{1}{\sigma}(n_1)-B^\frac{1}{\sigma}(n_1+1)<1 .$$ ...

Proving $\sum_{i=1}^{n}\sum_{j=1}^{n}\left\{\frac{x_{i}}{x_{j}}\right\}\le \frac{9}{14}n^2$?

For any postive integer $n$ and for any postive real numbers $x_{1},x_{2},\cdots,x_{n}$, show that $$\sum_{i=1}^{n}\sum_{j=1}^{n}\left\{\dfrac{x_{i}}{x_{j}}\right\}\le \dfrac{9}{14}n^2$$ Let \begin{...

On a monotonicity property of Fourier coefficients of truncated power functions

Is it true that $$a_{k,n}:=\int_0^{2\pi}x^k\cos(nx)\,dx$$ is nonincreasing in natural $n$ for each $k\in\{0,1,\dots\}$? This question is related to this previous one. Twice integrating by parts, one ...

Bounding a series of nested integrals

Consider the following matrix function $$ f(t) = \cos(\omega_1t) A_1 + \cos(\omega_2t) A_2, \quad t\ge 0, $$ where $A_1$, $A_2$ are real square matrices and $\omega_1$, $\omega_2$ positive numbers. ...

Coefficient bounds of an inequality

Hello, Given positive integers $k$ and $n$. Are there upper bounds on coefficients $A$ and $B$ such that they depends only on $k$ (eg., $2 k^k$) and for all non-negative integer sequences $(a_i)_{1}^...
