<s>[INST] inequality $(a+b+c+d)(a^3+b^3+c^3+d^3) > (a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2)^2$ I am trying to prove the inequality:
$$(a+b+c+d)(a^3+b^3+c^3+d^3) > (a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2)^2$$ given $a,b,c,d$ are positive and unequal.
starting from LHS 
since AM of mth power > mth power of AM 
$$(a^3+b^3+c^3+d^3)/4 > ((a+b+c+d)/4)^3$$
multiplying both sides by $(a+b+c+d)$
$$(a+b+c+d)(a^3+b^3+c^3+d^3)/4 > (a+b+c+d)^4/(4^3)$$
$\implies$
$$(a+b+c+d)(a^3+b^3+c^3+d^3) > (a+b+c+d)^4/16$$
now taking expression on the RHS and using AM of mth power > mth power of AM 
$$(a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2)/4 > ((a+b+c+d)/4)^2$$
squaring both sides 
$$(a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2)^2/16 > (a+b+c+d)^4/(4^4)$$
$$\implies (a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2)^2 > ((a+b+c+d)^4)/16$$
Now I have proved that both LHS and RHS are greater than  $$((a+b+c+d)^4)/16$$
still unable to prove LHS > RHS. Please help with this.
 [/INST] Hint: Use Cauchy inequality: $$(x_1+x_2+...+x_n)(y_1+y_2+...+y_n)\geq (\sqrt{x_1y_1}+...+\sqrt{x_ny_n})^2$$
