A grid consists of all points of the form $(m, n)$ where $m$ and $n$ are integers with $|m|\le 2019,|n| \le 2019$ and $|m| +|n| < 4038$. We call the points $(m,n)$ of the grid with either $|m| = 2019$ or $|n| = 2019$ the [i]boundary points[/i]. The four lines $x = \pm 2019$ and $y= \pm 2019$ are called [i]boundary lines[/i]. Two points in the grid are called [i]neighbours [/i] if the distance between them is equal to $1$. Anna and Bob play a game on this grid. Anna starts with a token at the point $(0,0)$. They take turns, with Bob playing first. 1) On each of his turns. Bob [i]deletes [/i] at most two boundary points on each boundary line. 2) On each of her turns. Anna makes exactly three [i]steps[/i] , where a [i]step [/i] consists of moving her token from its current point to any neighbouring point, which has not been deleted. As soon as Anna places her token on some boundary point which has not been deleted, the game is over and Anna wins. Does Anna have a winning strategy?

A company of $n$ soldiers is such that (i) $n$ is a palindrome number (read equally in both directions); (ii) if the soldiers arrange in rows of $3, 4$ or $5$ soldiers, then the last row contains $2, 3$ and $5$ soldiers, respectively. Find the smallest $n$ satisfying these conditions and prove that there are infinitely many such numbers $n$.

2022 Korea -Final Round, P2

There are $n$ boxes $A_1, ..., A_n$ with non-negative number of pebbles inside it(so it can be empty). Let $a_n$ be the number of pebbles in the box $A_n$. There are total $3n$ pebbles in the boxes. From now on, Alice plays the following operation. In each operation, Alice choose one of these boxes which is non-empty. Then she divide this pebbles into $n$ group such that difference of number of pebbles in any two group is at most 1, and put these $n$ group of pebbles into $n$ boxes one by one. This continues until only one box has all the pebbles, and the rest of them are empty. And when it's over, define $Length$ as the total number of operations done by Alice. Let $f(a_1, ..., a_n)$ be the smallest value of $Length$ among all the possible operations on $(a_1, ..., a_n)$. Find the maximum possible value of $f(a_1, ..., a_n)$ among all the ordered pair $(a_1, ..., a_n)$, and find all the ordered pair $(a_1, ..., a_n)$ that equality holds.
