Let $\mathbb{Z}_{>0}$ denote the set of positive integers. For any positive integer $k$, a function $f: \mathbb{Z}_{>0} \to \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$ is called [i]$k$-good[/i] if $\gcd(f(m) + n, f(n) + m) \le k$ for all $m \neq n$. Find all $k$ such that there exists a $k$-good function.

All the species of plants existing in Russia are catalogued (numbered by integers from $2$ to $2000$ ; one after another, without omissions or repetitions). For any pair of species the gcd of their catalogue numbers was calculated and recorded but the catalogue numbers themselves were lost. Is it possible to restore the catalogue numbers from the data in hand?

Let $A$ and $B$ be nonempty subsets of $\mathbb{N}$. The sum of $2$ distinct elements in $A$ is always an element of $B$. Furthermore, the result of the division of $2$ distinct elements in $B$ (where the larger number is divided by the smaller number) is always a member of $A$. Determine the maximum number of elements in $A \cup B$.

Let $S$ be the set of all lattice points $(x, y)$ in the plane satisfying $|x|+|y|\le 10$. Let $P_1,P_2,\ldots,P_{2013}$ be a sequence of 2013 (not necessarily distinct) points such that for every point $Q$ in $S$, there exists at least one index $i$ such that $1\le i\le 2013$ and $P_i = Q$. Suppose that the minimum possible value of $|P_1P_2|+|P_2P_3|+\cdots+|P_{2012}P_{2013}|$ can be expressed in the form $a+b\sqrt{c}$, where $a,b,c$ are positive integers and $c$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $a+b+c$. (A [i]lattice point[/i] is a point with all integer coordinates.)

[*] $k = 2013$, i.e. the problem should read, ``... there exists at least one index $i$ such that $1\le i\le 2013$ ...''. An earlier version of the test read $1 \le i \le k$.[/list][/hide]
