On a Hardy-Carleman's type inequality (Q812873)

It is shown that the Hardy-Carleman-type inequality \[ \sum_{n=1}^\infty \Bigg[\frac n{\sum\limits_{k=1}^n a_k^{-r}}\Bigg]^{\frac 1r} < (1+r)^{\frac 1r} \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n\;, \] \(0<r\leq 1\), \(a_n \gneqq 0\) (note: it is clear that \(a_n\geq 0\) doesn't work), \(n\in\mathbb N\), obtained by \textit{T. L. Nguyen, V. D. L. Nguyen, T. T. V. Nguyen} in [JIPAM, J. Inequal. Pure Appl. Math. 4, No.~1, Paper No.~2, 6 p., (2003; Zbl 1020.26013)], is best possible.
