SMO 1997 Problem 4

    Let n≥2n \ge 2 be a positive integer. Suppose that a1,a2,...,ana_1,a_2,...,a_n and b1,b2,...,bnb_1,b_2,...,b_n are 2n numbers such that ∑i=1nai=∑i=1nni=1\sum_{i=1}^n a_i =\sum_{i=1}^n n_i= 1 and ai≥0,0≤bi≤n−1n,i=1,2,...,na_i\ge 0, 0 \le b_i\le \frac{n-1}{n}, i = 1, 2,..., n . Show that b1a2a3...an+a1b2a3...an+...+a1a2...ak−1bkak+1...an+...+a1a2...an−1bn≤1n(n−1)n−2b_1a_2a_3...a_n+a_1b_2a_3...a_n+...+a_1a_2...a_{k-1}b_ka_{k+1}...a_n+ ...+ a_1a_2...a_{n-1}b_n \le \frac{1}{n(n-1)^{n-2}}
