    An inequality for three iid random variables with a log-concave density
                It was previously shown that
$$H\ge cG,\tag{1}$$
where $c:=1/14334$,
$$G:=E|X-Y|,\quad H:=E|X-Y|-\tfrac12\,E|X+Y-2Z|,$$
and $X,Y,Z$ are independent random variables with the same log-concave density.

    An elementary inequality for three complex numbers
                The following problem arose in asymptotic analysis of difference equations.
Numerical maximization suggests that for all nonzero complex numbers $a,b,c$ we have
$$h\big(r(a,b,c),r(b,c,a),r(c,a,b)\big …

    Sum of squared nearest-neighbor distances between points on the sides of a rectangle
                For positive real numbers $a,b$, let $R$ denote the $a\times b$ rectangle $[0,a]\times[0,b]$. Let $A_1,\dots,A_4$ be points on the sides of $R$, one point on each side. For each $j=1,\dots,4$, let $s_ …
