$Let a, b ⩾ 0 and (a + 1) (b + 1) = {(a + b)}^{2} . Prove that$ $(a + b) \sqrt{{(a + 1)}^{3} + {(b + 1)}^{3}} ⩽ {(a + 1)}^{2} + {(b + 1)}^{2} ⩽ \frac{1}{2} [{(a + 1)}^{3} + {(b + 1)}^{3}]$

$(a + b) (b + 1) = {(a + b)}^{2}$ $\Leftrightarrow a b + a + b + 1 = a^{2} + 2 b + b^{2}$ $\Leftrightarrow 1 + (a + b) = a^{2} + 2 b + b^{2}$ $b = 0 \Rightarrow (1 + a) = a^{2}$ $a = 0 \Rightarrow (1 + b) = b^{2}$ $& {(1 + a)}^{3} ⩾ {(1 + a)}^{2} = {(a^{2})}^{2}$ ${(1 + b)}^{3} ⩾ {(1 + b)}^{2} = {(b^{2})}^{2}$ $\frac{1}{2} [{(1 + a)}^{3} + {(1 + b)}^{3}] ⩾ \frac{1}{2} [{(a^{2})}^{2} + {(b^{2})}^{2}] ⩾ \frac{{(a^{2} + b^{2})}^{2}}{4}$ $\Leftrightarrow \frac{1}{2} [{(1 + a)}^{3} + {(1 + b)}^{3}] ⩾ ({(a^{2})}^{2} + {(b^{2})}^{2}) ⩾ \frac{{(a^{2} + b^{2})}^{2}}{2}$ $\Leftrightarrow \frac{1}{2} [{(1 + a)}^{3} + {(1 + b)}^{3}] ⩾ \frac{1}{2} (a^{4} + b^{4} + 2 a^{2} b^{2}) = \frac{1}{2} [{(1 + a)}^{2} + {(1 + b)}^{2} + 2 {(a + b)}^{2}]$ $n o t e$ $\frac{1}{2} [{(1 + a)}^{2} + {(1 + b)}^{2} + 2 {(a + b)}^{2}] ⩾ {(1 + a)}^{2} + {(1 + b)}^{2} \to a = b = 1 o r a \neq b \neq 1, a, b ⩾ 0$ $s o$ ${\frac{1}{2} [{(1 + a)}^{3} + {(1 + b)}^{3}] ⩾ {(1 + a)}^{2} + (1 + b))}^{2}$ $\Leftrightarrow {(1 + a)}^{2} + {(1 + b)}^{2} ⩽ \frac{1}{2} [{(1 + a)}^{3} + {(1 + b)}^{3}]$ $. . . . . . . . .$

$why 1 + a + b = a^{2} + 2 b + b^{2} ?$
