In a tournament, every team plays exactly once against every other team. One won match earns $3$ points for the winner and $0$ for the loser. With a draw both teams receive $1$ point each. At the end of the tournament it appears that all teams together have achieved $15$ points. The last team on the final list scored exactly $1$ point. The second to last team has not lost a match. a) How many teams participated in the tournament? b) How many points did the team score in second place in the final ranking?

Let $a$ and $b$ be natural numbers. We consider the set $M$ of the points of the plane with an integer $x$-coordinate from $1$ to $a$ and integer $y$-coordinate from $1$ to $b$. For two points $P = (x, y)$ and $Q = (\tilde x, \tilde y)$ in M we write $P\le Q$ if $x\le \tilde x$ and $y \le \tilde y$, we say $P$ is [i]less [/i] than $Q$ when $P\le Q$ and $P \ne Q$. A subset $S$ of $M$ is now called [i]cute [/i] if for every point $P \in S$ it also contains all smaller points. From an arbitrary subset $S$ of $M$ we can now create new subsets in four ways to construct: (a) the complement $K (S) = \overline{S}$, (b) the subset $\min (S)$ of its minima, i.e. those points for which there is no smaller in $S$ occurs, (c) the cute set $P (S)$ of all those points in M that are less than or equal to some point are from $S$, (d) you do all these things one after the other and get a set $Z (S) = P (\min (K (S)))$. Let $S$ be cute. Prove that $$\underset{a+b\,\, times\,\, Z}{Z(Z(...(Z(S))...))=S}$$

In a round robin chess tournament each player plays every other player exactly once. The winner of each game gets $ 1$ point and the loser gets $ 0$ points. If the game is tied, each player gets $ 0.5$ points. Given a positive integer $ m$, a tournament is said to have property $ P(m)$ if the following holds: among every set $ S$ of $ m$ players, there is one player who won all her games against the other $ m\minus{}1$ players in $ S$ and one player who lost all her games against the other $ m \minus{} 1$ players in $ S$. For a given integer $ m \ge 4$, determine the minimum value of $ n$ (as a function of $ m$) such that the following holds: in every $ n$-player round robin chess tournament with property $ P(m)$, the final scores of the $ n$ players are all distinct.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle not being isosceles at $A$. Let $(O)$ and $(I)$ denote the circumcircle and incircle of the triangle. $(I)$ touches $AC$ and $AB$ at $E, F$ respectively. Points $M$ and $N$ are on the circle $(I)$ such that $EM \parallel FN \parallel BC$. Let $P,Q$ be the intersections of $BM,CN$ and $(I)$. Prove that i) $BC,EP, FQ$ are concurrent, and denote by $K$ the point of concurrency. ii) the circumcircles of triangle $BPK, CQK$ are all tangent to $(I)$ and all pass through a common point on the circle $(O)$.

Prove that there exist $C>0$, which satisfies the following conclusion: For any infinite positive arithmetic integer sequence $a_1, a_2, a_3,\cdots$, if the greatest common divisor of $a_1$ and $a_2$ is squarefree, then there exists a positive integer $m\le C\cdot {a_2}^2$, such that $a_m$ is squarefree. Note: A positive integer $N$ is squarefree if it is not divisible by any square number greater than $1$. [i]Proposed by Qu Zhenhua[/i]
