Let $T$ be a finite set of squarefree integers. (a) Show that there exists an integer polynomial $P(x)$ such that the set of squarefree numbers in the range of $P(n)$ across all $n \in \mathbb{Z}$ is exactly $T$. (b) Suppose that $T$ is allowed to be infinite. Is it still true that for all choices of $T$, such an integer polynomial $P(x)$ exists? [i]Allen Wang[/i]

Paul can write polynomial $(x+1)^n$, expand and simplify it, and after that change every coefficient by its reciprocal. For example if $n=3$ Paul gets $(x+1)^3=x^3+3x^2+3x+1$ and then $x^3+\frac13x^2+\frac13x+1$. Prove that Paul can choose $n$ for which the sum of Paul’s polynomial coefficients is less than $2.022$.

Consider a flat field on which there exist a valley in the form of an infinite strip with arbitrary width $\omega$. There exist a polyhedron of diameter $d$(Diameter in a polyhedron is the maximum distance from the points on the polyhedron) is in one side and a pit of diameter $d$ on the other side of the valley. We want to roll the polyhedron and put it into the pit such that the polyhedron and the field always meet each other in one point at least while rolling (If the polyhedron and the field meet each other in one point at least then the polyhedron would not fall into the valley). For crossing over the bridge, we have built a rectangular bridge with a width of $\frac{d}{10}$ over the bridge. Prove that we can always put the polyhedron into the pit considering the mentioned conditions. (You will earn a good score if you prove the decision for $\omega = 0$).
