I was reading Nesterov's famous paper Smooth minimization of non-smooth functions. I got stuck in the first line of Theorem 3's proof. According to the paper, inequality (4.5) should be a direct result from Theorem 2. However I failed to see where $frac1(N+1)^2$ in the first term of right-hand side comes from. Shouldn't it be $frac4(N+1)(N+2)$?




Theorem 2




Proof of Theorem 3




It should be a simple arithmetic manipulation. But I cannot figure it out after hours of thinking. I hope anyone familiar with this paper could explain it to me. Thanks in advance!
