  • Day 2
  • Algebra
  • Answer

Let R>0\mathbb{R}_{>0} be the set of positive real numbers. Determine all functions f ⁣:R>0→R>0f \colon \mathbb{R}_{>0} \to \mathbb{R}_{>0} such that

x2+f(y)22≥f(x)+y2≥xf(y)\sqrt{\frac{x^2 + f(y)^2}{2}} \geq \frac{f(x) + y}{2} \geq \sqrt{x f(y)}

for every x,y∈R>0x, y \in \mathbb{R}_{>0}.
