Let a=2xa=2^xa=2x and b=3x.b=3^x.b=3x. Rewriting the given equation as 1a+b2+1b+a2+1ab+1=12ab(a+b+1),\frac{1}{a+b^2}+\frac{1}{b+a^2}+\frac{1}{ab+1}=\frac{1}{2ab}(a+b+1),a+b21​+b+a21​+ab+11​=2ab1​(a+b+1), and clearing denominators we get a(b−1)(b−a)[(b+1)(b2+ab+a2)+a+b]+b(a−1)2[b3(a+1)+(a+b2)(a2+a+1)]=0.a(b-1)(b-a)[(b+1)(b^2+ab+a^2)+a+b]+b(a-1)^2[b^3(a+1)+(a+b^2)(a^2+a+1)]=0.a(b−1)(b−a)[(b+1)(b2+ab+a2)+a+b]+b(a−1)2[b3(a+1)+(a+b2)(a2+a+1)]=0. The formal statement quantifies over all real x,a,bx,a,bx,a,b satisfying the two substitutions and the displayed rational equation.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
