Two mathematicians discuss two positive integers. One of them states that the square of the ratio between their product and their sum is exactly one more than this ratio. What is the smaller of these two numbers?

Let $k$ be a positive integer. The organising commitee of a tennis tournament is to schedule the matches for $2k$ players so that every two players play once, each day exactly one match is played, and each player arrives to the tournament site the day of his first match, and departs the day of his last match. For every day a player is present on the tournament, the committee has to pay $1$ coin to the hotel. The organisers want to design the schedule so as to minimise the total cost of all players' stays. Determine this minimum cost.

In a triangle $\triangle ABC$ with $\angle ABC < \angle BCA$, we define $K$ as the excenter with respect to $A$. The lines $AK$ and $BC$ intersect in a point $D$. Let $E$ be the circumcenter of $\triangle BKC$. Prove that
\[\frac{1}{|KA|} = \frac{1}{|KD|} + \frac{1}{|KE|}.\]

Consider a system of infinitely many spheres made of metal, with centers at points $(a, b, c) \in \mathbb Z^3$. We say that the system is stable if the temperature of each sphere equals the average temperature of the six closest spheres. Assuming that all spheres in a stable system have temperatures between $0^\circ C$ and $1^\circ C$, prove that all the spheres have the same temperature.

Let $S = \{(x, y) : x, y \in \{1, 2, 3, \dots, 2012\}\}$. For all points $(a, b)$, let $N(a, b) = \{(a - 1, b), (a + 1, b), (a, b - 1), (a, b + 1)\}$. Kathy constructs a set $T$ by adding $n$ distinct points from $S$ to $T$ at random. If the expected value of $\displaystyle \sum_{(a, b) \in T} | N(a, b) \cap T |$ is 4, then compute $n$.

$T_1$ consists of a single branch from 0 to 1 in the complex plane. This branch then splits into two branches at the endpoint which each form a $135^\circ$ angle with the branch in $T_1$, and each branch has length $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$. This process is repeated so that from each terminal branch in $T_n$, we form two more branches at angles $135^\circ$ with $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ the length. Let $L_n$ be the collection of the $2^{n-1}$ endpoints of the tree $T_n$. If multiple terminal branches end at the same point, then that point is counted multiple times in $L_n$. Shown below is $T_k$ for $k=1, 2, 3$ with dots at the points in $L_k$. Find the sum of $\ell^2$ over all points $\ell$ in $L_{10}$.

In the base ten number system the number $526$ means $5 \cdot 10^2+2 \cdot 10 + 6$. In the Land of Mathesis, however, numbers are written in the base $r$. Jones purchases an automobile there for $440$ monetary units (abbreviated m.u). He gives the salesman a $1000$ m.u bill, and receives, in change, $340$ m.u. The base $r$ is:

Let $A$ be the set of all binary sequences of length $n$ and denote $o =(0, 0, \ldots , 0) \in A$. Define the addition on $A$ as $(a_1, \ldots , a_n)+(b_1, \ldots , b_n) =(c_1, \ldots , c_n)$, where $c_i = 0$ when $a_i = b_i$ and $c_i = 1$ otherwise. Suppose that $f\colon A \to A$ is a function such that $f(0) = 0$, and for each $a, b \in A$, the sequences $f(a)$ and $f(b)$ differ in exactly as many places as $a$ and $b$ do. Prove that if $a$ , $b$, $c \in A$ satisfy $a+ b + c = 0$, then $f(a)+ f(b) + f(c) = 0$.

[b]1.[/b] Some proper partitions $P_1, \dots , P_n$ of a finite set $S$ (that is, partitions containing at least two parts) are called [i]independent[/i] if no matter how we choose one class from each partition, the intersection of the chosen classes is nonempty. Show that if the inequality
$\frac{\left | S \right | }{2} < \left |P_1 \right | \dots \left |P_n \right |\qquad \quad (*)$
holds for some independent partitions, then $P_1, \dots , P_n$ is maximal in the sense that there is no partition $P$ such that $P,P_1, \dots , P_n$ are independent. On the other hand, show that inequality $(*)$ is not necessary for this maximality. ([b]C.20[/b])
