Two real number sequences are guiven, one arithmetic $\left(a_n\right)_{n\in \mathbb {N}}$ and another geometric sequence $\left(g_n\right)_{n\in \mathbb {N}}$ none of them constant. Those sequences verifies $a_1=g_1\neq 0$, $a_2=g_2$ and $a_{10}=g_3$. Find with proof that, for every positive integer $p$, there is a positive integer $m$, such that $g_p=a_m$.

Let $A,B$ be two matrices with positive integer entries such that sum of entries of a row in $A$ is equal to sum of entries of the same row in $B$ and sum of entries of a column in $A$ is equal to sum of entries of the same column in $B$. Show that there exists a sequence of matrices $A_1,A_2,A_3,\cdots , A_n$ such that all entries of the matrix $A_i$ are positive integers and in the sequence \[A=A_0,A_1,A_2,A_3,\cdots , A_n=B,\] for each index $i$, there exist indexes $k,j,m,n$ such that \[\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} \\ {{A_{i + 1}} - {A_{i}} = } \end{array}\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} \quad \quad \ \ j& \ \ \ {k} \end{array}} \\ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} m \\ n \end{array}\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} { + 1}&{ - 1} \\ { - 1}&{ + 1} \end{array}} \right)} \end{array} \ \text{or} \ \begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} \quad \quad \ \ j& \ \ \ {k} \end{array}} \\ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} m \\ n \end{array}\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} { - 1}&{ + 1} \\ { + 1}&{ - 1} \end{array}} \right)} \end{array}.\] That is, all indices of ${A_{i + 1}} - {A_{i}}$ are zero, except the indices $(m,j), (m,k), (n,j)$, and $(n,k)$.

There are $ n \ge 3 $ puddings in a room. If a pudding $ A $ hates a pudding $ B $, then $ B $ hates $ A $ as well. Suppose the following two conditions holds: 1. Given any four puddings, there are two puddings who like each other. 2. For any positive integer $ m $, if there are $ m $ puddings who like each other, then there exists $ 3 $ puddings (from the other $ n-m $ puddings) that hate each other. Find the smallest possible value of $ n $.
