comment prove that this inequality
This can be seen as a quadratic form in variables $\vec{a} \in S^n$ whose extreme values are the largest and smallest eigenvalues $\lambda_1 < \vec{a}^T M \vec{a} < \lambda_n$ with $\lambda_1 \leq \dots \leq \lambda_n$.

comment prove that this inequality
Let's consider the case $a_1 = \dots = a_n = 0$. Then $S_k = a_0$ for all $k$. The inequality reads: $$ a_0^2 - \frac{1}{n^2} \big[(n+1)a_0\big]^2 \geq \frac{4}{45} (a_0^2 - a_0^2) = 0 $$ I suspect you have a typo.

comment Derivative of Associated Legendre polynomials at $x = \pm 1$
i only know a tiny bit of numerical analysis, but your quotient should have a limit at $x = \pm 1$. Is it possible to extend the time on the bounty?
