Given a positive, monotone function $ F(x)$ on $ (0, \infty)$ such that $ F(x)/x$ is monotone nondecreasing and $ F(x)/x^{1+d}$ is monotone nonincreasing for some positive $ d$, let $ \lambda_n >0$ and $ a_n \geq 0 , \;n \geq 1$. Prove that if \[ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_n F \left( a_n \sum _{k=1}^n \frac{\lambda_k}{\lambda_n} \right) < \infty,\] or \[ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_n F \left( \sum _{k=1}^n a_k \frac{\lambda_k}{\lambda_n} \right) < \infty,\] then $ \sum_{n=1}^ {\infty} a_n$ is convergent.

155 birds $ P_1, \ldots, P_{155}$ are sitting down on the boundary of a circle $ C.$ Two birds $ P_i, P_j$ are mutually visible if the angle at centre $ m(\cdot)$ of their positions $ m(P_iP_j) \leq 10^{\circ}.$ Find the smallest number of mutually visible pairs of birds, i.e. minimal set of pairs $ \{x,y\}$ of mutually visible pairs of birds with $ x,y \in \{P_1, \ldots, P_{155}\}.$ One assumes that a position (point) on $ C$ can be occupied simultaneously by several birds, e.g. all possible birds.

In a rectangular array of points, with 5 rows and $N$ columns, the points are numbered consecutively from left to right beginning with the top row. Thus the top row is numbered 1 through $N,$ the second row is numbered $N+1$ through $2N,$ and so forth. Five points, $P_1, P_2, P_3, P_4,$ and $P_5,$ are selected so that each $P_i$ is in row $i.$ Let $x_i$ be the number associated with $P_i.$ Now renumber the array consecutively from top to bottom, beginning with the first column. Let $y_i$ be the number associated with $P_i$ after the renumbering. It is found that $x_1=y_2,$ $x_2=y_1,$ $x_3=y_4,$ $x_4=y_5,$ and $x_5=y_3.$ Find the smallest possible value of $N.$
