\section*{Introduction}
|
||||
This document presents a very simple mathematical proof that $\pi^3 < 3^{\pi}$.
|
||||
The proof illustrates the beauty of pure mathematics, which allows a simple question to be shown in verbose manner.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{theorem}
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\pi^3 < 3^{\pi}
|
||||
\]
|
||||
\end{theorem}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{proposition}
|
||||
Since the both bases are over 1, we can exponentiate both sides of the inequality by \(\frac{1}{3 \pi}\).
|
||||
So we have to prove that:
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\pi^{\frac{1}{\pi}} < 3^{\frac{1}{3}}
|
||||
\]
|
||||
\end{proposition}
|
||||
|
||||
\section*{Limit Analysis}
|
||||
Consider the function
|
||||
\[
|
||||
f(x) = x^{\frac{1}{x}}, \quad x > 0.
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
First, take the logarithm on both sides.
|
||||
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\log {f(x)} = \frac{1}{x} \log{x} \quad (\text{log is a natural logarithm})
|
||||
\]
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\therefore f(x) = e^{\frac{1}{x} \log{x}}
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
Then analyze the limits at the boundaries of the domain:
|
||||
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\lim_{x \to 0^+} f(x) = \lim_{X \to - \infty} e^{X} = 0
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
And
|
||||
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\lim_{x \to \infty} f(x) = \lim_{X \to 0^+} e^{X} = 1 .
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
\section*{Derivative Analysis}
|
||||
|
||||
To find the derivative of \(f(x)\), use logarithmic differentiation as in Limit Analysis:
|
||||
|
||||
\[
|
||||
y = x^{\frac{1}{x}} \implies \log y = \frac{\ln x}{x}.
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
Differentiating both sides:
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\frac{1}{y} \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{\log x}{x}\right) = \frac{1 - \log x}{x^2}.
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
Since \(x > 0\),
|
||||
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\frac{1- \log x}{x^2} = 0 \quad \rm{iff.} \quad 1 - \log x = 0
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\therefore x = e \quad \text{where} \quad \frac{d}{dx} f(x) = 0
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||

|

\begin{proof}
|
||||
As shown in the graph,
|
||||
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\pi^{\frac{1}{\pi}} < 3^{\frac{1}{3}}
|
||||
\]
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\therefore \boxed{\pi^3 < 3^{\pi}}
|
||||
\]
