An inequality which involves a sum of integrals

Please help me to prove $$ \sum\limits_{j=2}^n \frac{1}{j^\alpha (j-1)^\alpha} \int\limits_{j-1}^j \frac{dx}{x^{1-\alpha}(n-x)^\alpha} \leq \int\limits_0^1 \frac{dx}{x^{1-\alpha}(n-x)^\alpha},\quad \...

A reference for an integrability property?

In a recent paper of mine (Compensated integrability), I established a functional inequality which has nice consequences. For instance, it contains the isoperimetric inequality, and it gives a new ...

Integral inequality of Polya

In the book Math Problems AMM (1957), Problem 230, there is the next inequality of D. Polya: let $a,b>0$, $0\leq x \leq a $, $f(x)$ --- being not a linear function, and $f(0)=0$, $f(a)=b$, $f(x)\...

Fractional integral inequality (Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev)

I am investigating the following integral \begin{equation} I^*(x) = \int_{\mathbb{R}} \frac{f(y) \ln |y-x| }{|y - x|^{\mu}} \, dy \end{equation} where $f \in L_p(\mathbb{R})$, $ 1 < p < q <...

An "elementary" inequality

The following is left unproven in a monograph. The author refers to it as "elementary exercise" but I am unable to prove it. Any insight is appreciated. $$ \int f \log f d\mu \le 2 \left[\...

Extension of the Gagliardo Inequality

The Gagliardo Inequality generalizes Fubini's Theorem: let $f_j$ be $d-1$ non-negative measurable functions over ${\mathbb R}^{d-1}$. Let us form the function $$f(x)=\prod_{j=1}^df_j(\widehat{x_j}),$$ ...

An inequality related to Problem 10210 AMM 1992 No. 3

Problem. Let $A$ be a $N \times N$ real matrix whose $(i,j)$ entry is $a_{ij} \ge 0, \forall i, j$. Let $1$ denote $N\times 1$ all-ones vector. Prove that $$N^2 1^\top A^\top A A^\top 1 \ge (1^\top A ...

Generalization of the triangle inequality to complex exponents: What is $P\left(\left| x^{a+bi} + y^{a+bi} \right| \ge \left|z^{a+bi}\right|\right)$?

Let $x \le y \le z$ be the length of the sides of a triangle whose vertices are uniformly random on the circumference of a circle. In this question, it was proved that if $a \ge 1$, then the ...

Taylor coefficients of the integral of the ordered exponential

Let $A$ be a continuous $2\times 2$ matrix-valued function on $[0,1]$. Define $X_A$ as the solution of $$ X_A'(t) = A(t) X_A(t), \qquad X(0) = I. $$ In other words $X_A$ is the ordered exponential of $...

Integral inequality related to the (mixed?) moments of two functions

For $k\in \mathbb{Z}_+$ and $t\in [0,1]$ we set $$ S_{k}(t) = \{(t_1,\ldots, t_k)\colon 1\ge t\ge t_1\ge\ldots\ge t_k\ge 0\}. $$ Let $a$ and $b$ be two continuous functions on $[0,1]$. Introduce $$ ...
