Abstract

Given a multi-variant polynomial inequality with a parameter, how to find the best possible value of this parameter that satisfies the inequality? For instance, find the greatest number kk that satisfies a3+b3+c3+k(a2b+b2c+c2a)(k+1)(ab2+bc2+ca2)0 a^3+b^3+c^3+ k(a^2b+b^2c+c^2a)-(k+1)(ab^2+bc^2+ca^2)\geq 0 for all nonnegative real numbers a,b,c a,b,c . Analogues problems often appeared in studies of inequalities and were dealt with by various methods. In this paper, a general algorithm is proposed for finding the required best possible constant. The algorithm can be easily implemented by computer algebra tools such as Maple.
