What is the spectrum of this differential operator?

My self-adjount differential operator $L$ is defined by $$L f(x) \equiv u(x) \frac{\partial^2}{\partial x^2} \left( u(x) f(x) \right)$$ where $u(x)$ is a known but arbitrary smooth function that ...

Lower bound for $\frac{\sum_{i,j}\min((f_i-f_j)^2,(g_i-g_j)^2)}{\sum_{i,j}\max((f_i-f_j)^2,(g_i-g_j)^2)}$

Let $f\in\mathbb{R}^n$ and $g\in\mathbb{R}^n$ be two orthogonal unit vectors such that $\sum_{i}{f_i}=\sum_{i}{g_i}=0$. Question. Can we prove this? $$\frac{\sum_{\{i,j\}}\min((f_i-f_j)^2,(g_i-...
