3. The Main Theorem
- Step 1: First, we show that, without loss of generality, the center of the cube may be assumed to be at the origin.
- Step 2: We show that the validity of (46) is guaranteed by
- Step 3: We show that for any and defined as in (33), the inequality
- Step 5: We start to prove (51).
