Let $\mathbb{Z} _{>0}$ be the set of positive integers. Find all functions $f: \mathbb{Z} _{>0}\rightarrow \mathbb{Z} _{>0}$ such that \[ m^2 + f(n) \mid mf(m) +n \] for all positive integers $m$ and $n$.

In the plane are given $n^2 + 1$ points, no three of which lie on a line. Each line segment connecting a pair of these points is colored by either red or blue. A [i]path [/i] of length $k$ is a sequence of $k$ segments where the end of each segment (except for the last one) is the beginning of the next one. A path is [i]simple [/i] if it does not intersect itself. Prove that there exists a monochromatic simple path of length $n$.

we have a triangle $ ABC $ and make rectangles $ ABA_1B_2 $ , $ BCB_1C_2 $ and $ CAC_1A_2 $ out of it. then pass a line through $ A_2 $ perpendicular to $ C_1A_2 $ and pass another line through $ A_1 $ perpendicular to $ A_1B_2 $. let $ A' $ the common point of this two lines. like this we make $ B' $ and $ C' $. prove $ AA' $ , $ BB' $ and $ CC' $ intersect each other in a same point.

There are $10$ teams, named $T_1$ through $T_{10},$ participating in a draft in which there are $20$ players available, named $P_1$ through $P_{20}.$ Suppose each team independent of the others has uniform random preference on the $20$ players. Team $T_1$ will draft their favorite player, and then each subsequent team $T_2, \ldots , T_{10}$ draft their favorite player among the ones not already drafted. Each team drafts exactly one player. Given that $P_1$ is among the $10$ favorite players for each team, the probability that $P_1$ is drafted can be written as $\tfrac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are coprime positive integers. Find $m + n.$

For each positive integer $n$ we define $f (n)$ as the product of the sum of the digits of $n$ with $n$ itself. Examples: $f (19) = (1 + 9) \times 19 = 190$, $f (97) = (9 + 7) \times 97 = 1552$. Show that there is no number $n$ with $f (n) = 19091997$.

The rooms of a building are arranged in a $m\times n$ rectangular grid (as shown below for the $5\times 6$ case). Every room is connected by an open door to each adjacent room, but the only access to or from the building is by a door in the top right room. This door is locked with an elaborate system of $mn$ keys, one of which is located in every room of the building. A person is in the bottom left room and can move from there to any adjacent room. However, as soon as the person leaves a room, all the doors of that room are instantly and automatically locked. Find, with proof, all $m$ and $n$ for which it is possible for the person to collect all the keys and escape the building.
