Any hints on how to prove that the function $\lvert\alpha\;\sin(A)+\sin(A+B)\rvert - \lvert\sin(B)\rvert$ is negative over the half of the total area?
I have this inequality with $0<A,B<\pi$ and a real $\lvert\alpha\rvert<1$:
$$ f(A,B):=\bigl|\alpha\;\sin(A)+\sin(A+B)\bigr| - \bigl| \sin(B)\bigr| < 0$$
Numerically, I see that ...

Bound for the laplacian of a strictly convex function from above by the gradient of it
Let $V \in C^2(\mathbb{R}^d; \mathbb{R})$ a (strictly) convex function with $ \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} \mathrm{e}^{-V(x)} \, dx = 1.$
I am trying to show that
$$ \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} |\nabla_x V(x) |^2\...
