On the circle, in clockwise direction, numbers $0,1,2,\dots n-1$ are written, in this order and in the same distance to each other. Every number is colored red or blue, and there exists a non-zero number of numbers of each color. It is known that there exists a set $S\subsetneq \{0,1,2,\dots n-1\}, |S|\geq 2$, for wich it holds: if $(x,y), x<y$ is a circle sector whose endpoints are of distinct colors, whose distance $y-x$ is in $S$, then $y$ is in $S$.
