Ann and Beto play with a two pan balance scale. They have $2023$ dumbbells labeled with their weights, which are the numbers $1, 2, \dots, 2023$, with none of them repeating themselves. Each player, in turn, chooses a dumbbell that was not yet placed on the balance scale and places it on the pan with the least weight at the moment. If the scale is balanced, the player places it on any pan. Ana starts the game, and they continue in this way alternately until all the dumbbells are placed. Ana wins if at the end the scale is balanced, otherwise Beto win. Determine which of the players has a winning strategy and describe the strategy.

Prove that if $A{}$ is an $n\times n$ matrix with complex entries such that $A+A^*=A^2A^*$ then $A=A^*$. (Here, we denote by $M^*$ the conjugate transpose $\overline{M}^t$ of the matrix $M{}$).

Wendy takes Honors Biology at school, a smallish class with only fourteen students (including Wendy) who sit around a circular table. Wendy's friends Lucy, Starling, and Erin are also in that class. Last Monday none of the fourteen students were absent from class. Before the teacher arrived, Lucy and Starling stretched out a blue piece of yarn between them. Then Wendy and Erin stretched out a red piece of yarn between them at about the same height so that the yarn would intersect if possible. If all possible positions of the students around the table are equally likely, let $m/n$ be the probability that the yarns intersect, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m+n$.

For $n \geq 3$ and $a_{1} \leq a_{2} \leq \ldots \leq a_{n}$ given real numbers we have the following instructions: - place out the numbers in some order in a ring; - delete one of the numbers from the ring; - if just two numbers are remaining in the ring: let $S$ be the sum of these two numbers. Otherwise, if there are more the two numbers in the ring, replace Afterwards start again with the step (2). Show that the largest sum $S$ which can result in this way is given by the formula \[S_{max}= \sum^n_{k=2} \begin{pmatrix} n -2 \\ [\frac{k}{2}] - 1\end{pmatrix}a_{k}.\]
