There are $2017$ jars in a row on a table, initially empty. Each day, a nice man picks ten consecutive jars and deposits one coin in each of the ten jars. Later, Kelvin the Frog comes back to see that $N$ of the jars all contain the same positive integer number of coins (i.e. there is an integer $d>0$ such that $N$ of the jars have exactly $d$ coins). What is the maximum possible value of $N$?

Let $\Gamma$ be a circle with centre $I$, and $A B C D$ a convex quadrilateral such that each of the segments $A B, B C, C D$ and $D A$ is tangent to $\Gamma$. Let $\Omega$ be the circumcircle of the triangle $A I C$. The extension of $B A$ beyond $A$ meets $\Omega$ at $X$, and the extension of $B C$ beyond $C$ meets $\Omega$ at $Z$. The extensions of $A D$ and $C D$ beyond $D$ meet $\Omega$ at $Y$ and $T$, respectively. Prove that \[A D+D T+T X+X A=C D+D Y+Y Z+Z C.\]

A collection of regular polygons with sides of equal length is said to "fit" if, when arranged around a common vertex, they exactly complete the surrounding area of the point on the plane. For example, a square fits with two octagons. Determine all possible collections of regular polygons that fit.

A set $A$ of integers is called [i]sum-full[/i] if $A \subseteq A + A$, i.e. each element $a \in A$ is the sum of some pair of (not necessarily different) elements $b,c \in A$. A set $A$ of integers is said to be [i]zero-sum-free[/i] if $0$ is the only integer that cannot be expressed as the sum of the elements of a finite nonempty subset of $A$.
Does there exist a sum-full zero-sum-free set of integers?

Lines $l$ and $m$ are perpendicular. Line $l$ partitions a convex polygon into two parts of equal area, and partitions the projection of the polygon onto $m$ into two line segments of length $a$ and $b$ respectively. Determine the maximum value of $\left\lfloor \frac{1000a}{b} \right\rfloor$. (The floor notation $\lfloor x \rfloor$ denotes largest integer not exceeding $x$)

For some 2011 natural numbers, all the $\frac{2010\cdot 2011}{2}$ possible sums were written out on a board. Could it have happened that exactly one third of the written numbers were divisible by three and also exactly one third of them give a remainder of one when divided by three?

How many distinct triangles are there with prime side lengths and perimeter $100$?
[i]Proposed by Muztaba Syed[/i]
[hide=Solution][i]Solution.[/i] $\boxed{0}$
As the perimeter is even, $1$ of the sides must be $2$. Thus, the other $2$ sides are congruent by Triangle Inequality. Thus, for the perimeter to be $100$, both of the other sides must be $49$, but as $49$ is obviously composite, the answer is thus $\boxed{0}$.[/hide]

A polygonal prism is made from a flexible material such that the two bases are regular $2^n$-gons $(n>1)$ of the same size. The prism is bent to join the two bases together without twisting, giving a figure with $2^n$ faces. The prism is then repeatedly twisted so that each edge of one base becomes aligned with each edge of the base exactly once. For an arbitrary $n$, what is the sum of the number of faces over all of these configurations (including the non-twisted case)?

A nonnegative integer $n$ is said to be $\textit{squarish}$ is it satisfies the following conditions:
$\textbf{(i)}$ it contains no digits of $9$;
$\textbf{(ii)}$ no matter how we increase exactly one of its digits with $1$, the outcome is a square.
Find all squarish nonnegative integers.

There are $m$ real numbers $x_i \geq 0$ ($i=1,2,...,m$), $n \geq 2$, $\sum_{i=1}^{m} x_i=S$. Prove that\\
\[
\sum_{i=1}^{m} \sqrt[n]{\frac{x_i}{S-x_i}} \geq 2,
\]
The equation holds if and only if there are exactly two of $x_i$ are equal(not equal to $0$), and the rest are equal to $0$.
