An $n$-tuple $(a_1, a_2 . . . , a_n)$ is [i]occasionally periodic[/i] if there exist a non-negative integer $i$ and a positive integer $p$ satisfying $i + 2p \le n$ and $a_{i+j} = a_{i+j+p}$ for every $j = 1, 2, . . . , p$. Let $k$ be a positive integer. Find the least positive integer $n$ for which there exists an $n$-tuple $(a_1, a_2 . . . , a_n)$ with elements from the set $\{1, 2, . . . , k\}$, which is not occasionally periodic but whose arbitrary extension $(a_1, a_2, . . . , a_n, a_{n+1})$ is occasionally periodic for any $a_{n+1} \in \{1, 2, . . . , k\}$.

If $n>2$ is an integer and $x_1, \ldots ,x_n$ are positive reals such that
\[ \frac 1{x_1} + \frac 1{x_2} + \cdots + \frac 1{x_n} = n \] then the following inequality takes place
\[ \frac{x_2^2+\cdots+x_n^2}{n-1}\cdot \frac {x_1^2+x_3^2+\cdots +x_n^2} {n-1} \cdots \frac{x_1^2+\cdots+x_{n-1}^2}{n-1}\geq \left(\frac{x_1^2+...+x_n^2}{n}\right)^{n-1}. \]

Two fixed circles $\omega$ and $\Omega$ intersect at two distinct points $A$ and $B$. Let $C$ and $D$ be two fixed points on the circle $\omega$. Let $P$ be a moving point on $\omega$. Line $PA$ meets circle $\Omega$ again at $Q$. Prove that the second intersection $R$ of two circumcircles of triangles $QPC$ and $QBD$ always lies on a fixed circle.

Csongi bought a $12$-sided convex polygon-shaped pizza. The pizza has no interior point with three or more distinct diagonals passing through it. Áron wants to cut the pizza along $3$ diagonals so that exactly $6$ pieces of pizza are created. In how many ways can he do this? Two ways of slicing are different if one of them has a cut line that the other does not have.

Given a rectangle $\mathcal{R}$ of area $100000 $, Pancho must completely cover the rectangle $\mathcal{R}$ with a finite number of rectangles with sides parallel to the sides of $\mathcal{R}$ . Next, Martín colors some rectangles of Pancho's cover red so that no two red rectangles have interior points in common. If the red area is greater than $0.00001$, Martin wins. Otherwise, Pancho wins. Prove that Pancho can cover to ensure victory,

Show that $ \rho (f)$ changes continously over $ f$. It means for every bijection $ f: S^1\rightarrow S^1$ and $ \epsilon > 0$ there is $ \delta > 0$ such that if $ g: S^1\rightarrow S^1$ is a bijection such that $ \parallel{}f \minus{} g\parallel{} < \delta$ then $ |\rho(f) \minus{} \rho(g)| < \epsilon$.
Note that $ \rho(f)$ is the rotatation number of $ f$ and $ \parallel{}f \minus{} g\parallel{} \equal{} \sup\{|f(x) \minus{} g(x)| | x\in S^1\}$.

Let $\Gamma$ be a circle and let $d$ be a line such that $\Gamma$ and $d$ have no common points. Further, let $AB$ be a diameter of the circle $\Gamma$; assume that this diameter $AB$ is perpendicular to the line $d$, and the point $B$ is nearer to the line $d$ than the point $A$. Let $C$ be an arbitrary point on the circle $\Gamma$, different from the points $A$ and $B$. Let $D$ be the point of intersection of the lines $AC$ and $d$. One of the two tangents from the point $D$ to the circle $\Gamma$ touches this circle $\Gamma$ at a point $E$; hereby, we assume that the points $B$ and $E$ lie in the same halfplane with respect to the line $AC$. Denote by $F$ the point of intersection of the lines $BE$ and $d$. Let the line $AF$ intersect the circle $\Gamma$ at a point $G$, different from $A$.
Prove that the reflection of the point $G$ in the line $AB$ lies on the line $CF$.
