This is a proof of the Geometric-Arithmetic-Mean inequality via Cauchy's induction.
It uses Lists because they allow use to avoid fiddling with indices. I have also tried Vectors, but they do not have nice simplifications rules like (a++b).sum = a.sum + b.sum.
The proof is still lengthy. Maybe I find ways to shorten it. I think I can save some unfoldings by consistently using arithmetic_mean instead of (a.sum / a.length).
