In an acute triangle $ABC$, $AB \neq AC$, $O$ is its circumcenter. $K$ is the reflection of $B$ over $AC$ and $L$ is the reflection of $C$ over $AB$. $X$ is a point within $ABC$ such that $AX \perp BC, XK=XL$. Points $Y, Z$ are on $\overline{BK}, \overline{CL}$ respectively, satisfying $XY \perp CK, XZ \perp BL$.
Proof that $B, C, Y, O, Z$ lie on a circle.

Consider a matrix of size $n\times n$ whose entries are real numbers of absolute value not exceeding $1$. The sum of all entries of the matrix is $0$. Let $n$ be an even positive integer. Determine the least number $C$ such that every such matrix necessarily has a row or a column with the sum of its entries not exceeding $C$ in absolute value.

Alice and Bob play the following game: Initially, there is a $2016\times2016$ "empty" matrix. Taking turns, with Alice playing first, each player chooses a real number and fill it into an empty entry. If the determinant of the last matrix is non-zero, then Alice wins. Otherwise, Bob wins. Who has the winning strategy?

In the City of Islands there are $2021$ islands connected by bridges. For any given pair of islands $A$ and $B$, one can go from island $A$ to island $B$ using the bridges. Moreover, for any four islands $A_1, A_2, A_3$ and $A_4$: if there is a bridge from $A_i$ to $A_{i+1}$ for each $i \in \left \{ 1,2,3 \right \}$, then there is a bridge between $A_{j}$ and $A_{k}$ for some $j,k \in \left \{ 1,2,3,4 \right \}$ with $|j-k|=2$. Show that there is at least one island which is connected to any other island by a bridge.

The rows and columns of a $2^n \times 2^n$ table are numbered from $0$ to $2^{n}-1.$ The cells of the table have been coloured with the following property being satisfied: for each $0 \leq i,j \leq 2^n - 1,$ the $j$-th cell in the $i$-th row and the $(i+j)$-th cell in the $j$-th row have the same colour. (The indices of the cells in a row are considered modulo $2^n$.) Prove that the maximal possible number of colours is $2^n$.
