A positive integer is called a [b]double number[/b] if its decimal representation consists of a block of digits, not commencing with 0, followed immediately by an identical block. So, for instance, 360360 is a double number, but 36036 is not. Show that there are infinitely many double numbers which are perfect squares.

We are given a square $ ABCD$. Let $ P$ be a point not equal to a corner of the square or to its center $ M$. For any such $ P$, we let $ E$ denote the common point of the lines $ PD$ and $ AC$, if such a point exists. Furthermore, we let $ F$ denote the common point of the lines $ PC$ and $ BD$, if such a point exists. All such points $ P$, for which $ E$ and $ F$ exist are called acceptable points. Determine the set of all acceptable points, for which the line $ EF$ is parallel to $ AD$.

In Kacs Aladár street, houses are only found on one side of the road, so that only odd house numbers are found along the street. There are an odd number of allotments, as well. The middle three allotments belong to Scrooge McDuck, so he only put up the smallest of the three house numbers. The numbering of the other houses is standard, and the numbering begins with $1$. What is the largest number in the street if the sum of house numbers put up is $3133$?

Three lights are placed horizontally on a line on the ceiling. All the lights are initially off. Every second, Neil picks one of the three lights uniformly at random to switch: if it is off, he switches it on; if it is on, he switches it off. When a light is switched, any lights directly to the left or right of that light also get turned on (if they were off) or off (if they were on). The expected number of lights that are on after Neil has flipped switches three times can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m + n$.
