    Schur's inequality states that for non-negative real numbers a, b, c and real number k ≥ 1, the inequality ak (a - b)(a - c) + bk (b - c)(b - a) + ck (c - a)(c - c) ≥ 0 holds true. The proof assumes without loss of generality that c ≤ b ≤ a and shows that each term on the left side of the rearranged inequality is positive, proving it. Some special cases are when k = 1, which is the well-known inequality involving sums of cubes, when c = 0, b = c = 0, or when b = c.

    Schurs inequality

    If a, b, and c are non-negative real numbers and k 1 is real, then the


    following inequality holds:
    ak (a b)(a c) + bk (b c)(b a) + ck (c a)(c b) 0
    Proof. We can assume without loss of generality that c b a via a permutation of the variables (as both sides are symmetric in those variables). Then
    collecting terms, we wish to show that
    
    (a b) ak (a c) bk (b c) + ck (a c)(b c) 0
    which is clearly true as every term on the left is positive.
    There are a couple of special cases worth noting:
    Taking k = 1, we get the well-known
    a3 + b3 + c3 + 3abc ab(a + b) + ac(a + c) + bc(b + c)
    If c = 0, we get (a b)(ak+1 bk+1 ) 0.
    If b = c = 0, we get ak+2 0.
    If b = c, we get ak (a c)2 0.
