Let $p$ be a prime. We arrange the numbers in ${\{1,2,\ldots ,p^2} \}$ as a $p \times p$ matrix $A = ( a_{ij} )$. Next we can select any row or column and add $1$ to every number in it, or subtract $1$ from every number in it. We call the arrangement [i]good[/i] if we can change every number of the matrix to $0$ in a finite number of such moves. How many good arrangements are there?

A positive integer \(n\) is called perfect if the sum of its positive divisors \(\sigma(n)\) is twice \(n\), that is, \(\sigma(n) = 2n\). For example, \(6\) is a perfect number since the sum of its positive divisors is \(1 + 2 + 3 + 6 = 12\), which is twice \(6\). Prove that if \(n\) is a positive perfect integer, then: \[ \sum_{p|n} \frac{1}{p + 1} < \ln 2 < \sum_{p|n} \frac{1}{p - 1} \] where the sums are taken over all prime divisors \(p\) of \(n\).

In triangle $ABC$, let $O$ be the circumcenter. The incircle of $ABC$ is tangent to $\overline{BC}$, $\overline{CA},$ and $\overline{AB}$ at points $D, E$, and $F$, respectively. Let $G$ be the centroid of triangle $DEF$. Suppose the inradius and circumradius of $ABC$ is $3$ and $8$, respectively. Over all such triangles $ABC$, pick one that maximizes the area of triangle $AGO$. If we write $AG^2 =\frac{m}{n}$ for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$, then find $m$.

Let n be a non-negative integer. Define the [i]decimal digit product[/i] \(D(n)\) inductively as follows: - If \(n\) has a single decimal digit, then let \(D(n) = n\). - Otherwise let \(D(n) = D(m)\), where \(m\) is the product of the decimal digits of \(n\). Let \(P_k(1)\) be the probability that \(D(i) = 1\) where \(i\) is chosen uniformly randomly from the set of integers between 1 and \(k\) (inclusive) whose decimal digit products are not 0. Compute \(\displaystyle\lim_{k\to\infty} P_k(1)\). [i]proposed by the ICMC Problem Committee[/i]

Let $A$ be a point in the plane, and $\ell$ a line not passing through $A$. Evan does not have a straightedge, but instead has a special compass which has the ability to draw a circle through three distinct noncollinear points. (The center of the circle is [i]not[/i] marked in this process.) Additionally, Evan can mark the intersections between two objects drawn, and can mark an arbitrary point on a given object or on the plane. (i) Can Evan construct* the reflection of $A$ over $\ell$? (ii) Can Evan construct the foot of the altitude from $A$ to $\ell$? *To construct a point, Evan must have an algorithm which marks the point in finitely many steps. [i]Proposed by Zack Chroman[/i]
