Let be a natural number $ n, $ a nonzero number $ \alpha, \quad n $ numbers $ a_1,a_2,\ldots ,a_n $ and $ n+1 $ functions $ f_0,f_1,f_2,\ldots ,f_n $ such that $ f_0=\alpha $ and the rest are defined recursively as $$ f_k (x)=a_k+\int_0^x f_{k-1} (x)dx . $$ Prove that if all these functions are everywhere nonnegative, then the sum of all these functions is everywhere nonnegative.

Consider all points with integer coordinates in the carthesian plane. If one draws a circle with M(0,0) and a well-chose radius r, the circles goes through some of those points. (like circle with $r=2\sqrt2$ goes through 4 points) Prove that $\forall n\in \mathbb{N}, \exists r$ so that the circle with midpoint 0,0 and radius $r$ goes through at least $n$ points.
