Let $n \leq 100$ be an integer. Hare puts real numbers in the cells of a $100 \times 100$ table. By asking Hare one question, Wolf can find out the sum of all numbers of a square $n \times n$, or the sum of all numbers of a rectangle $1 \times (n - 1)$ (or $(n - 1) \times 1$). Find the greatest $n{}$ such that, after several questions, Wolf can find the numbers in all cells, with guarantee.

In a tennis tournament where $ n$ players $ A_1,A_2,\dots,A_n$ take part, any two
players play at most one match, and $ k \leq \frac {n(n \minus{} 1)}{2}$
$ 2$ matches are played. The winner of a match gets $ 1$ point while the loser gets $ 0$. Prove that a sequence
$ d_1,d_2,\dots,d_n$ of nonnegative integers can be the sequence of scores of the
players ($ d_i$ being the score of$ A_i$) if and only if
$ (i)\ \ d_1 \plus{} d_2 \plus{} \dots \plus{} d_n \equal{} k$, and
$ (ii)\ \text{for any} X\subset\{A_1,\dots,A_n\}$, the number of matches between the players in $ X$ is at most $ \sum_{A_j\in X}d_j$

A point object of mass $m$ is connected to a cylinder of radius $R$ via a massless rope. At time $t = 0$ the object is moving with an initial velocity $v_0$ perpendicular to the rope, the rope has a length $L_0$, and the rope has a non-zero tension. All motion occurs on a horizontal frictionless surface. The cylinder remains stationary on the surface and does not rotate. The object moves in such a way that the rope slowly winds up around the cylinder. The rope will break when the tension exceeds $T_{max}$. Express your answers in terms of $T_{max}$, $m$, $L_0$, $R$, and $v_0$. [asy]

There are $2025$ people living on the island, each of whom is either a knight, i.e. always tells the truth, or a liar, which means they always lie. Some of the inhabitants of the island know each other, and everyone has at least one acquaintance, but no more than three. Each inhabitant of the island claims that there are exactly two liars among his acquaintances.
a) What is the smallest possible number of knights among the inhabitants of the island?
b) What is the largest possible number of knights among the inhabitants of the island?

2024 Durer Math Competition Finals, 1
There are 100 merchants who are selling salmon for Durer dollars around the circular shore of the island of Durerland. Since the beginning of times good and bad years have been alternating on the island. (So after a good year, the next year is bad; and after a bad year, the next year is good.)
In every good year all merchants set their price as the maximum value between their own selling price from the year before and the selling price of their left-hand neighbour from the year before. In turn, in every bad year they sell it for the minimum between their own price from the year before and their left-hand neighbour’s price from the year before.
Paul and Pauline are two merchants on the island. This year Paul is selling salmon for 17 Durer dollars a kilogram. Prove that there will come a year when Pauline will sell salmon for 17 Durer dollars a kilogram.
[i]Note: The merchants are immortal, they have been selling salmon on the island for thousands of years and will continue to do so until the end of time.[/i]

In the isosceles triangle $ABC$ where $AB = AC$, the point $I{}$ is the center of the inscribed circle. Through the point $A{}$ all the rays lying inside the angle $BAC$ are drawn. For each such ray, we denote by $X{}$ and $Y{}$ the points of intersection with the arc $BIC$ and the straight line $BC$ respectively. The circle $\gamma$ passing through $X{}$ and $Y{}$, which touches the arc $BIC$ at the point $X{}$ is considered. Prove that all the circles $\gamma$ pass through a fixed point.
