TLDR
In this paper, the product 2uu is the derivative of u2; integrating by parts changes (5) into 1 v A1 < 21 (1-u2sin2s)ds, clearly < Fr/2.
Abstract
A1< 2| [u2(sin2s-COS2S)2uusinscoss-u2sin2s+1]ds. (S) The product 2uu is the derivative of u2; integrating by parts changes (5) into 1 v A1< 21 (1-u2sin2s)ds, clearly < Fr/2. Equality holds only if u O, which makes y(s) constant sin s. Since equality in (3) holds only if y = x = 21 _ y2, y(5) _ sin s, x(s) + cos s + constant. This is a semicircle. Q.e.d.
