  • Session A

Suppose that f(x,y)f(x,y) is a continuous real-valued function on the unit square 0≤x≤1,0≤y≤10 \leq x \leq 1, 0 \leq y \leq 1. Show that ∫01(∫01f(x,y)dx)2dy+∫01(∫01f(x,y)dy)2dx≤(∫01∫01f(x,y)dxdy)2+∫01∫01[f(x,y)]2dxdy.\int_0^1 \left( \int_0^1 f(x,y) dx \right)^2 dy + \int_0^1 \left( \int_0^1 f(x,y) dy \right)^2 dx \leq \left( \int_0^1 \int_0^1 f(x,y) dx dy \right)^2 + \int_0^1 \int_0^1 [f(x,y)]^2 dx dy.
