Abstract

A new analytical approximation function is proposed to accurately fit the solution of a fractional differential equation of order one-half, whose nonhomogeneous term is defined by a modified Bessel function of the first kind. The exact analytical solution of this equation is expressed as the product of two modified Bessel functions. The approximation is constructed using an extended multipoint quasi-rational method, which simultaneously incorporates the series expansion and the asymptotic behavior of the Bessel function. A key modification is introduced in the structure of the fitting function, allowing it to reproduce two terms of the asymptotic expansion instead of only one, thereby improving accuracy for large arguments. Numerical analysis shows that for representative parameter values, the maximum relative error between the proposed fitting function and the exact solution of the fractional differential equation is approximately \(0.18\%\), demonstrating the high precision achieved with only six fitting parameters.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
