Then move $f_1$ and $P_1$ by $\frac{b^2}{4a}-c$ in $y$ direction. You get:
\[f_2(x) = ax^2\;\;\;\text{ and }\;\;\; P_2 = \left (x_p+\frac{b}{2a},\;\; y_p+\frac{b^2}{4a}-c \right )\]
As $f(x) = ax^2$ is symmetric to the $y$ axis, only points

$P = (0, w)$ could possilby have three minima.
Then compute:

d_{P,{f_2}}(x) &= \sqrt{(x-x_{P})^2 + (f(x)-w)^2}\\

For $w \leq \nicefrac{1}{2a}$ you only have $x = 0$ as a minimum.
For all other points $P = (0, w)$, there are exactly two minima.
The term
\[a^2 x^2 + (\nicefrac{1}{2}-a w)\]
should get as close to $0$ as possilbe when we want to minimize
$d_{P,{f_2}}$. For $w \leq \nicefrac{1}{2a}$ you only have $x = 0$ as a minimum.
For all other points $P = (0, w)$, there are exactly two minima $x_{1,2} = \pm \sqrt{aw - \nicefrac{1}{2}}$.
So the solution is given by
\[\underset{x\in\mdr}{\arg \min d_{P,f}(x)} = \begin{cases}
x_1 = todo \text{ and } x_2 = todo &\text{if } x_P = - \frac{b}{2a} \text{ and } y_p + \frac{b^2}{4a} - c > \frac{1}{2a} \\
x = todo &\text{if } x_P = - \frac{b}{2a} \text{ and } y_p + \frac{b^2}{4a} - c \leq \frac{1}{2a} \\
x = todo &\text{if } x_P \neq - \frac{b}{2a}
\end{cases}\]
\begin{align*}
x_S &:= - \frac{b}{2a}\\
\underset{x\in\mdr}{\arg \min d_{P,f}(x)} &= \begin{cases}
x_1 = +\sqrt{a (y_p + \frac{b^2}{4a} - c) - \frac{1}{2}} + x_S \text{ and } &\text{if } x_P = x_S \text{ and } y_p + \frac{b^2}{4a} - c > \frac{1}{2a} \\
x_2 = -\sqrt{a (y_p + \frac{b^2}{4a} - c) - \frac{1}{2}} + x_S\\
