For a cubic function $f ( x )$ with leading coefficient $6 \pi$, the function $g ( x ) = \frac { 1 } { 2 + \sin ( f ( x ) ) }$ has a local maximum or minimum at $x = \alpha$, and when all $\alpha \geq 0$ are listed in increasing order as $\alpha _ { 1 }$, $\alpha _ { 2 } , \alpha _ { 3 } , \alpha _ { 4 } , \alpha _ { 5 } , \cdots$, the function $g ( x )$ satisfies the following conditions. (가) $\alpha _ { 1 } = 0$ and $g \left( \alpha _ { 1 } \right) = \frac { 2 } { 5 }$. (나) $\frac { 1 } { g \left( \alpha _ { 5 } \right) } = \frac { 1 } { g \left( \alpha _ { 2 } \right) } + \frac { 1 } { 2 }$ When $g ^ { \prime } \left( - \frac { 1 } { 2 } \right) = a \pi$, find the value of $a ^ { 2 }$.

Throughout this part, $\lambda$ is a real number belonging to the interval $]0,1[$ and $f, g, h$ are functions in $C^{0}(\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{R}_{+})$ that are integrable and satisfy the following inequality $$\forall x \in \mathbb{R}, \forall y \in \mathbb{R}, \quad h(\lambda x + (1-\lambda) y) \geq f(x)^{\lambda} g(y)^{1-\lambda}.$$ In questions 3), 4) and 5) we additionally assume that $f$ and $g$ are strictly positive, that is, for all real $x$, $f(x) > 0$ and $g(x) > 0$.
Show that the applications $u$ and $v$ are of class $C^{1}$ on the interval $]0,1[$ and, for each $t \in ]0,1[$, calculate the derivatives $u'(t)$ and $v'(t)$.
