There are $2016$ red and $2016$ blue cards each having a number written on it. For some $64$ distinct positive real numbers, it is known that the set of numbers on cards of a particular color happens to be the set of their pairwise sums and the other happens to be the set of their pairwise products. Can we necessarily determine which color corresponds to sum and which to product? [i](B. Frenkin)[/i] (Translated from [url=http://sasja.shap.homedns.org/Turniry/TG/index.html]here.[/url])

There are $n$ rooms in a sauna, each has unlimited capacity. No room may be attended by a female and a male simultaneously. Moreover, males want to share a room only with males that they don't know and females want to share a room only with females that they know. Find the biggest number $k$ such that any $k$ couples can visit the sauna at the same time, given that two males know each other if and only if their wives know each other.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. There are given $n$ lines such that no two are parallel and no three meet at a single point. a) Prove that there exists a line such that the number of intersection points of these $n$ lines on both of its sides is at least $$\left \lfloor \frac{(n-1)(n-2)}{10} \right \rfloor.$$ Notice that the points on the line are not counted. b) Find all $n$ for which there exists a configurations where the equality is achieved.

Fractal Edition 1, P2

A deck consists of 13 types of cards: \( A > K > Q > J > 10 > 9 > \dots > 3 > 2 \), each card appearing 4 times. In total, there are 52 cards. Marius and Alexandru each receive half of the standard deck of cards, placing them face down. On each turn, the players simultaneously draw the top card from their hands, and the player with the most valuable card takes both cards and places them under all of his other cards, with Marius deciding the order in which the two cards are placed. In case of a tie, each player places their own card under the rest of their cards. The game ends when one of the players runs out of cards. Is it possible that, although Alexandru initially has all four \( A \) cards, the game lasts forever?

(b) On the segment $CK$ some point $P$ is chosen whose projections on $AC,BC,AB$ respectively are $P_1,P_2,P_3$. The lines $PP_3$ and $P_1P_2$ intersect at a point $M$. Find the locus of $M$ when $P$ moves around segment $CK$.

Let \(n\) be a positive integer. On a \(2 \times 3 n\) board, we mark some squares, so that any square (marked or not) is adjacent to at most two other distinct marked squares (two squares are adjacent when they are distinct and have at least one vertex in common, i.e. they are horizontal, vertical or diagonal neighbors; a square is not adjacent to itself). (a) What is the greatest possible number of marked square? (b) For this maximum number, in how many ways can we mark the squares? configurations that can be achieved through rotation or reflection are considered distinct.
