Let $(M,g)$ be an $n$-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold with $n \ge 2$. Suppose $M$ is connected and $\text{Ric} \ge (n-1)g$, where $\text{Ric}$ is the Ricci tensor of $(M,g)$. Denote by $\text{d}g$ the Riemannian measure of $(M,g)$ and by $d(x,y)$ the geodesic distance between $x$ and $y$. Prove that
\[\int_{M \times M} \cos d(x,y) \text{d}g(x)\text{d}g(y) \ge 0.\]
Moreover, equality holds if and only if $(M,g)$ is isometric to the unit round sphere $S^n$.

Prove that:
$\int_{-1}^1f^2(x)dx\ge \frac 1 2 (\int_{-1}^1f(x)dx)^2 +\frac 3 2(\int_{-1}^1xf(x)dx)^2$
Please give a proof without using even and odd functions. (the oficial proof uses those and seems to be un-natural) :D

Determine all polynomials with integral coefficients $P(x)$ such that if $a,b,c$ are the sides of a right-angled triangle, then $P(a), P(b), P(c)$ are also the sides of a right-angled triangle. (Sides of a triangle are necessarily positive. Note that it's not necessary for the order of sides to be preserved; if $c$ is the hypotenuse of the first triangle, it's not necessary that $P(c)$ is the hypotenuse of the second triangle, and similar with the others.)
