The final inequality is true because X < XY (from assumption Y > 1)
and k(x) is an increasing function on (1, +∞) since

k 0 (x) = 2 G(x) + 1 + G0 (x)

and so
k 0 (x) > 0 ⇐⇒ −4xG(x) + (x4 − 1)G0 (x) > 0

One has
2(x2 − 1)3
K 0 (x) =
x3 (x2 + 1)
which is evidently positive on (1, +∞). Hence, K(x) is increasing on
(1, +∞) and so K(x) ≥ K(1) = 0 with equality only achieved when x = 1.
