Inequality in 3 variables (conjecture)












2












$begingroup$


Let $a, b, c$ be nonnegative real numbers such that $a+b+c=3$.
If $0<kleq 3+2sqrt{3}$, then $$frac{a}{b^2+k}+frac{b}{c^2+k}+frac{c}{a^2+k}geq frac{3}{1+k}$$
If $k=3+2sqrt{3}$, then equality occurs if $a=b=c=1$ or $a=0$, $b=1-sqrt{3}$ and $c=sqrt{3}$ or any cyclic permutation thereof. This inequality can be found in Vasile Cirtoaje's Discrete inequalities, Volume 4 - page 61. Any idea for this inequality? Thank you!

    if this inequality is conjectured by vasile cirtoaje I doubt if someone could prove it in a short time.vasile cirtoaje is a master in inequalities and it would be very hard to tackle an inequality he did not proved.

    It is enough to prove only $k=3+2sqrt{3}$.
