Minimizing $\frac{1-c}{1-\frac{(a-b)^3}{(1-a)^2} - \frac{(b-c)^3}{(a-b)^2} - \frac{c^3}{b^2}}$

I am interested in approximating the minimum of $$\dfrac{1-c}{1-\dfrac{(a-b)^3}{(1-a)^2} - \dfrac{(b-c)^3}{(a-b)^2} - \dfrac{c^3}{b^2}}$$ Subject to $0 < \frac{a-b}{1-a} < \frac{b-c}{a-b} < \...

Solving inequality, but graphing/mathematica gives a completely different answer

I have the following inequality problem, where I'm trying to solve for $\mu$. Here is the inequality: $$\frac{1}{2} \left(-\sqrt{(c+d+\theta -\mu +1)^2+4 (c \theta -\theta \mu )}+c+d+\theta -\mu +1\...

Is there a systematic way to derive constraints in a system of equations?

I have this system of equations: $x_1 = y_1+ y_2+ y_3$ $x_2 = y_1- y_2$ $x_3 = y_1 + y_2 - 2y_3$ And I have these constraints: $y_1 \geq y_2 \geq 0 \geq y_3$ From the constraints I can derive ...

Using Mathematica to show that a transformation is a relaxed cocoercive

I have a problem that I can't solve because I've just started using mathematica and matlab programs: $\mathbb{R}^2$ is Hibert space endowed with the norm$$\left\Vert x\right\Vert = \left\Vert x_{1},...

Why Is f'(x)>0 When f''(x)>0 [duplicate]

Why is $f'(x)>0$ when $f''(x)>0$ on the inequality $\mathrm{e}^x>1+x+\frac{x^2}{2}$ when $x>0$? $f''(x)$ determines the concave of the inequality. When a curve is concave up, it can either ...

Algorithm to solve a system of linear inequalities over the natural numbers

I am looking for an algorithm to solve a system of linear inequalities of the form $$A\,\vec n + \vec c \;\geq\; 0$$ for $\vec n$ where $A$ is a matrix of integers, $\vec c$ consists of integers and ...

If $p^{r + 1} - 1 > 5(p^r - 1)$, then is there a lower bound for $p$ and $r$?

If $$p^{r + 1} - 1 > 5(p^r - 1),$$ then is there a lower bound for $p$ (e.g., in terms of $r$) and $r$ (e.g., in terms of $p$)? Here, $p>1$ and $r \geq 1$. I tried using WolframAlpha, but I do ...

How to prove an inequality or read Mathematica's proof

Given $0 < \alpha_1, \alpha_2 <1$ and $1/2 < p <1$, how to prove that the following expression is always non-negative? \begin{align*} (1 - \alpha_2)^2 p^2 (2 p -1) + \alpha_1^2 \, p\, \...

Is this system of inequalities (and equality) tractable?

I have some real parameters here. The $\mu_i$ - for $i=1,2,3,4,5$ - are 'convex coefficents' in that $\mu_i\geq 0$ and $\sum_{i}\mu_i=1$. The $x$ and $z$ are such that $x^2+z^2\leq 1$. The ...

Find min of $\frac{\left( \sum kx_k \right) \left( \sum x^2_k \right)}{\left( \sum x_k \right)^3}$

With $n \ge 2$ and $x_1,\ x_2,\ \dots,\ x_n > 0$. Find the minimum of: $$ M = \frac{(x_1 + 2 x_2 + ...+ nx_n)( x^2_1 + x^2_2 +...+x^2_n)} {\left( x_1 + x_2 +...+ x_n \right)^3}$$ For specific $n$, ...

Why Mathematica (Reduce) can't find clear solution for almost trivial inequalities?

Suppose we want to solve the inequality $ax^2+bx+c<0$. For simplicity, presume that $a>0$ and $b^2-4ac>0$. In this form, this is almost a trivial problem. Despite that, if we want to solve it ...
