  • Does Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) exacerbate income inequality in South Korea? If so, does rising income inequality come for the sake of economic growth? This study explores the impact of FDI on income inequality and growth in South Korea. To this end, we collect data on FDI and income inequality/economic growth at both national and provincial levels and empirically test their relationships in South Korea. The empirical results confirm our expectation that FDI magnifies income inequality. Furthermore, we fail to find a positive relationship between FDI and economic growth, implying that income inequality as a consequence of FDI does not come for the sake of economic growth in Korea. Findings suggest that more systematic research and nuanced policy design is necessary to circumvent the mechanisms at play that link the surge of FDI inflows and the exponential expansion of economic inequality.

  • In this paper we analyze various studies on $Erd\ddot{o}s-Mordell$ inequality(from a point O inside a given triangle ABC the perpendiculars OP, OQ, OR are drawn to its sides, then OA+OB+OC${\ge}$2(OP+OQ+OR)). We find out three trends of studies on $Erd\ddot{o}s-Mordell$ inequality: studies on various proof methods, studies on related means, studies on $Erd\ddot{o}s-Mordell$ type inequalities.

  • Minkowski's inequality is one of the most famous inequalities in mathematics, and has many applications. In this paper, we give Minkowski's inequality for generalized variational integrals that are based on a supermultiplicative function. Our results include previous results about fractional integral inequalities of Minkowski's type.
