Let $A=\{1,2,3,\cdots ,17\}$. A mapping $f:A\rightarrow A$ is defined as follows: $f^{[1]}(x)=f(x), f^{[k+1]}(x)=f(f^{[k]}(x))$ for $k\in\mathbb{N}$. Suppose that $f$ is bijective and that there exists a natural number $M$ such that:
i) when $m<M$ and $1\le i\le 16$, we have $f^{[m]}(i+1)- f^{[m]}(i) \not=\pm 1\pmod{17}$ and $f^{[m]}(1)- f^{[m]}(17) \not=\pm 1\pmod{17}$;
ii) when $1\le i\le 16$, we have $f^{[M]}(i+1)- f^{[M]}(i)=\pm 1 \pmod{17}$ and $f^{[M]}(1)- f^{[M]}(17)=\pm 1\pmod{17}$.

Let $p$ be a prime integer greater than $10^k$. Pete took some multiple of $p$ and inserted a $k-$digit integer $A$ between two of its neighbouring digits. The resulting integer C was again a multiple of $p$. Pete inserted a $k-$digit integer $B$ between two of neighbouring digits of $C$ belonging to the inserted integer $A$, and the result was again a multiple of $p$. Prove that the integer $B$ can be obtained from the integer $A$ by a permutation of its digits.

From a $n\times (n-1)$ rectangle divided into unit squares, we cut the [i]corner[/i], which consists of the first row and the first column. (that is, the corner has $2n-2$ unit squares). For the following, when we say [i]corner[/i] we reffer to the above definition, along with rotations and symmetry. Consider an infinite lattice of unit squares. We will color the squares with $k$ colors, such that for any corner, the squares in that corner are coloured differently (that means that there are no squares coloured with the same colour). Find out the minimum of $k$.

Is this also true if the functions $f(x)$ are required to be monotonically increasing (rather than continuous) on $[0,1]$? [b](R.4)[/b]

Let $S$ be the set of values assumed by the fraction \[\frac{2x+3}{x+2}\] when $x$ is any member of the interval $x \ge 0$. If there exists a number $M$ such that no number of the set $S$ is greater than $M$, then $M$ is an upper bound of $S$. If there exists a number $m$ such that such that no number of the set $S$ is less than $m$, then $m$ is a lower bound of $S$. We may then say:
$ \textbf{(A)}\ \text{m is in S, but M is not in S} $
$\textbf{(B)}\ \text{M is in S, but m is not in S}$
$\textbf{(C)}\ \text{Both m and M are in S} $
$\textbf{(D)}\ \text{Neither m nor M are in S}$
$\textbf{(E)}\ \text{M does not exist either in or outside S} $

Consider the set $A=\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\}$.A partition $\Pi $ of $A$ is collection of disjoint sets whose union is $A$. For example, $\Pi_1=\{\{1,2\},\{3,4,5\},\{6,7,8,9\}\}$ and $\Pi _2 =\{\{1\},\{2,5\},\{3,7\},\{4,5,6,7,8,9\}\}$ can be considered as partitions of $A$. For, each $\Pi$ partition ,we consider the function $\pi$ defined on the elements of$A$. $\pi (x)$ denotes the cardinality of the subset in $\Pi$ which contains $x$. For, example in case of $\Pi_1$ , $\pi_1(1)=\pi_1(2)=2$, $\pi_1(3)=\pi_1(4)=\pi_1 (5)=3$, and $\pi_1(6)=\pi_1(7)=\pi_1(8)=\pi_1(9)=4$. For $\Pi_2$ we have $\pi_2(1)=1$, $\pi_2(2)=\pi_2(5)=2$, $\pi_2(3)=\pi_2(7)=2$ and $\pi_2(4)=\pi_2(6)=\pi_2(8)=\pi_2(9)=4$ Given any two partitions $\Pi$ and $\Pi '$, show that there are two numbers $x$ and $y$ in $A$, such that $\pi (x)= \pi '(x)$ and $ \pi (y)= \pi'(y)$.[[b]Hint:[/b] Consider the case where there is a block of size greater than or equal to 4 in a partition and the alternative case]

In a country there are $n$ major cities, $n \ge 4$, connected by railroads, such that each city is directly connected to each other city. Each railroad company in that country has but only one train, which connects a series of cities, at least two, such that the train doesn’t pass through the same city twice in one shift. The companies divided the market such that any two cities are directly$^1$ connected only by one company. Prove that among any $n+1$ companies, there are two which have no common train station or there are two cities that are connected by two trains belonging to two of these $n+1$ companies.
$^1$ directly connected means that they are connected by a railroad, without no other station between them
