Alice sends a secret message to Bob using her RSA public key $n=400000001$. Eve wants to listen in on their conversation. But to do this, she needs Alice's private key, which is the factorization of $n$. Eve knows that $n=pq$, a product of two prime factors. Find $p$ and $q$.

Let $f_0$ be the function from $\mathbb{Z}^2$ to $\{0,1\}$ such that $f_0(0,0)=1$ and $f_0(x,y)=0$ otherwise. For each positive integer $m$, let $f_m(x,y)$ be the remainder when \[ f_{m-1}(x,y) + \sum_{j=-1}^{1} \sum_{k=-1}^{1} f_{m-1}(x+j,y+k) \] is divided by $2$. Finally, for each nonnegative integer $n$, let $a_n$ denote the number of pairs $(x,y)$ such that $f_n(x,y) = 1$. Find a closed form for $a_n$. [i]Proposed by Bobby Shen[/i]

Let $p$ be a prime and $A = \{a_1, \ldots , a_{p-1} \}$ an arbitrary subset of the set of natural numbers such that none of its elements is divisible by $p$. Let us define a mapping $f$ from $\mathcal P(A)$ (the set of all subsets of $A$) to the set $P = \{0, 1, \ldots, p - 1\}$ in the following way: $(i)$ if $B = \{a_{i_{1}}, \ldots , a_{i_{k}} \} \subset A$ and $\sum_{j=1}^k a_{i_{j}} \equiv n \pmod p$, then $f(B) = n,$ $(ii)$ $f(\emptyset) = 0$, $\emptyset$ being the empty set. Prove that for each $n \in P$ there exists $B \subset A$ such that $f(B) = n.$

A table has $m$ rows and $n$ columns. The following permutations of its $mn$ elements are permitted: an arbitrary permutation leaving each element in the same row (a“horizontal move”) and an arbitrary permutation leaving each element in the same column (a “vertical move”). Find the number $k$ such that any permutation of $mn$ elements can be obtained by $k$ permitted moves but there exists a permutation that cannot be achieved in less than $k$ moves. (A Andjans, Riga0
