Given distinct positive integers \( g \) and \( h \), let all integer points on the number line \( OX \) be vertices. Define a directed graph \( G \) as follows: for any integer point \( x \), \( x \rightarrow x + g \), \( x \rightarrow x - h \). For integers \( k, l (k < l) \), let \( G[k, l] \) denote the subgraph of \( G \) with vertices limited to the interval \([k, l]\). Find the largest positive integer \( \alpha \) such that for any integer \( r \), the subgraph \( G[r, r + \alpha - 1] \) of \( G \) is acyclic. Clarify the structure of subgraphs \( G[r, r + \alpha - 1] \) and \( G[r, r + \alpha] \) (i.e., how many connected components and what each component is like).

A pharmaceutical company produces a disease test that has a $95\%$ accuracy rate on individuals who actually have an infection, and a $90\%$ accuracy rate on individuals who do not have an infection. They use their test on a population of mathletes, of which $2\%$ actually have an infection. If a test concludes that a mathlete has an infection, then the probability that the mathlete actually does have an infection is $\tfrac{a}{b},$ where $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $a + b.$

There are a million numbered chairs at a large round table. The Sultan has seated a million wise men on them. Each of them sees the thousand people following him in clockwise order. Each of them was given a cap of black or white color, and they must simultaneously write down on their own piece of paper a guess about the color of their cap. Those who do not guess will be executed. The wise men had the opportunity to agree on a strategy before the test. What is the largest number of survivors that they can guarantee?

Let $ABC$ be an acute, non-isosceles triangle which is inscribed in a circle $(O)$. A point $I$ belongs to the segment $BC$. Denote by $H$ and $K$ the projections of $I$ on $AB$ and $AC$, respectively. Suppose that the line $HK$ intersects $(O)$ at $M, N$ ($H$ is between $M, K$ and $K$ is between $H, N$). Prove the following assertions: a) If $A$ is the center of the circle $(IMN)$, then $BC$ is tangent to $(IMN)$. b) If $I$ is the midpoint of $BC$, then $BC$ is equal to $4$ times of the distance between the centers of two circles $(ABK)$ and $(ACH)$.
