Given $x_0\in\mathbb R$, $f,g:\mathbb R\to\mathbb R$, we define the $\emph{non-redundant binary tree}$ $T(x_0,f,g)$ in the following way:
[list=1]
[*]The tree $T$ initially consists of just $x_0$ at height $0$.
[*]Let $v_0,\dots,v_k$ be the vertices at height $h$. Then the vertices of height $h+1$ are added to $T$ by: for $i=0,1,\dots,k$, $f(v_i)$ is added as a child of $v_i$ if $f(v_i)\not\in T$, and $g(v_i)$ is added as a child of $v_i$ if $g(v_i)\not\in T$.
[/list]
For example, if $f(x)=x+1$ and $g(x)=x-1$, then the first three layers of $T(0,f,g)$ look like:

Leo and Smilla find $2020$ gold nuggets with masses $1,2,\dots,2020$ gram, which they distribute to a red and a blue treasure chest according to the following rule:
First, Leo chooses one of the chests and tells its colour to Smilla. Then Smilla chooses one of the not yet distributed nuggets and puts it into this chest.
This is repeated until all the nuggets are distributed. Finally, Smilla chooses one of the chests and wins all the nuggets from this chest.
How many gram of gold can Smilla make sure to win?

The plane is divided into strips of width $1$ by parallel lines (a strip - the region between two parallel lines). The points from the interior of each strip are coloured with red or white, such that in each strip only one color is used (the points of a strip are coloured with the same color). The points on the lines are not coloured. Show that there is an equilateral triangle of side-length $100$, with all vertices of the same colour.

2002 Abels Math Contest (Norwegian MO), 4
An integer is given $N> 1$. Arne and Britt play the following game:
(1) Arne says a positive integer $A$.
(2) Britt says an integer $B> 1$ that is either a divisor of $A$ or a multiple of $A$. ($A$ itself is a possibility.)
(3) Arne says a new number $A$ that is either $B - 1, B$ or $B + 1$.
The game continues by repeating steps 2 and 3. Britt wins if she is okay with being told the number $N$ before the $50$th has been said. Otherwise, Arne wins.
a) Show that Arne has a winning strategy if $N = 10$.
b) Show that Britt has a winning strategy if $N = 24$.
c) For which $N$ does Britt have a winning strategy?
