sequences and series - Double sum trouble



Evaluate:
j=1i=1j2i3j(j3i+i3j)



Honestly, I don't see where to start with this. I am sure that this is a trick question and I am missing something very obvious. I tried writing down a few terms for a fixed j but I couldn't spot any pattern or some kind of easier series to handle.




Any help is appreciated. Thanks!


Answer



After symmetrization with respect to the exchange ij, the sum can be rewritten as
12i,j=1(j2i3j(j3i+i3j)+i2j3i(j3i+i3j))=12i,j=1ij3i3j=12(i=1i3i)2=932.
