Let $ABC$ be an acute-angled triangle with $AB < AC$ and $\Gamma$ the circumference that passes through $A,\ B$ and $C$. Let $D$ be the point diametrically opposite $A$ on $\Gamma$ and $\ell$ the tangent through $D$ to $\Gamma$. Let $P, Q$ and $R$ be the intersection points of $B C$ with $\ell$, of $A P$ with $\Gamma$ such that $Q \neq A$ and of $Q D$ with the $A$-altitude of the triangle $ABC$, respectively. Define $S$ to be the intersection of $AB$ with $\ell$ and $T$ to be the intersection of $A C$ with $\ell$. Show that $S$ and $T$ lie on the circumference that passes through $A, Q$ and $R$.

Let $n$ be a fixed odd positive integer. For each odd prime $p$, define
$$a_p=\frac{1}{p-1}\sum_{k=1}^{\frac{p-1}{2}}\bigg\{\frac{k^{2n}}{p}\bigg\}.$$
Prove that there is a real number $c$ such that $a_p = c$ for infinitely many primes $p$.

A positive integer $a$ is said to [i]reduce[/i] to a positive integer $b$ if when dividing $a$ by its units digits the result is $b$. For example, 2015 reduces to $\frac{2015}{5} = 403$.
Find all the positive integers that become 1 after some amount of reductions. For example, 12 is one such number because 12 reduces to 6 and 6 reduces to 1.

Bunbury the bunny is hopping on the positive integers. First, he is told a positive integer $n$. Then Bunbury chooses positive integers $a,d$ and hops on all of the spaces $a,a+d,a+2d,\dots,a+2013d$. However, Bunbury must make these choices so that the number of every space that he hops on is less than $n$ and relatively prime to $n$.
A positive integer $n$ is called [i]bunny-unfriendly[/i] if, when given that $n$, Bunbury is unable to find positive integers $a,d$ that allow him to perform the hops he wants. Find the maximum bunny-unfriendly integer, or prove that no such maximum exists.

A robot is placed at point $P$ on the $x$-axis but different from $(0,0)$ and $(1,0)$ and can only move along the axis either to the left or to the right. Two players play the following game. Player $A$ gives a distance and $B$ gives a direction and the robot will move the indicated distance along the indicated direction. Player $A$ aims to move the robot to either $(0,0)$ or $(1,0)$. Player $B$'s aim is to stop $A$ from achieving his aim. For which $P$ can $A$ win?
