Let \(\theta\) be a fixed constant. Characterize all functions \(f:\mathcal R\to \mathcal R\) such that \(f”(x)\) exists for all real \(x\) and for all real \(x,y\), \[ f(y)=f(x)+(y-x)f'(x)+ \frac{(y-x)^2}{2} f”(\theta y + (1-\theta) x).\]
Prove or disprove that for all positive integers \(m\) and \(n\), \[ f(m,n)=\frac{2^{3(m+n)-\frac12} }{{\pi}} \int_0^{\pi/2} \sin^{ 2n – \frac12 }\theta \cdot \cos^{2m+\frac12}\theta \, d\theta\] is an integer.
