#3330 — Re: How can I write the input code for a comparison

m > n is not always true, since:

m = (6 + 4 R + B^2 R - 5 R^2 - R^3 + R^4 + B (R^2 + R - 2));
n = (6 + 4 r + k^2 r - 5 r^2 - r^3 + r^4 +
    k (r^2 + r - 2)); condition = {0 < r < R < 1, 0 < k < B < 1};

FindInstance[Flatten@{m < n, condition}, {r, R, k, B}, Reals]

{{r -> 1/64, R -> 283/16384, k -> 1/4, B -> 513/1024}}
