Let $p$ be a prime number. Let $\mathbb F_p$ denote the integers modulo $p$, and let $\mathbb F_p[x]$ be the set of polynomials with coefficients in $\mathbb F_p$. Define $\Psi : \mathbb F_p[x] \to \mathbb F_p[x]$ by \[ \Psi\left( \sum_{i=0}^n a_i x^i \right) = \sum_{i=0}^n a_i x^{p^i}. \] Prove that for nonzero polynomials $F,G \in \mathbb F_p[x]$, \[ \Psi(\gcd(F,G)) = \gcd(\Psi(F), \Psi(G)). \] Here, a polynomial $Q$ divides $P$ if there exists $R \in \mathbb F_p[x]$ such that $P(x) - Q(x) R(x)$ is the polynomial with all coefficients $0$ (with all addition and multiplication in the coefficients taken modulo $p$), and the gcd of two polynomials is the highest degree polynomial with leading coefficient $1$ which divides both of them. A non-zero polynomial is a polynomial with not all coefficients $0$. As an example of multiplication, $(x+1)(x+2)(x+3) = x^3+x^2+x+1$ in $\mathbb F_5[x]$. [i]Proposed by Mark Sellke[/i]

At a certain mathematical conference, every pair of mathematicians are either friends or strangers. At mealtime, every participant eats in one of two large dining rooms. Each mathematician insists upon eating in a room which contains an even number of his or her friends. Prove that the number of ways that the mathematicians may be split between the two rooms is a power of two (i.e., is of the form $ 2^k$ for some positive integer $ k$).

2007 Chile National Olympiad, 3

Two players, Aurelio and Bernardo, play the following game. Aurelio begins by writing the number $1$. Next it is Bernardo's turn, who writes number $2$. From then on, each player chooses whether to add $1$ to the number just written by the previous player, or whether multiply that number by $2$. Then write the result and it's the other player's turn. The first player to write a number greater than $ 2007$ loses the game. Determine if one of the players can ensure victory no matter what the other does.
