A segment $AB$ is given in (Euclidean) plane. Consider all triangles $XYZ$ such, that $X$ is an inner point of $AB$, triangles $XBY$ and $XZA$ are similar (in this order of vertices), and points $A, B, Y, Z$ lie on a circle in this order. Find the locus of midpoints of all such segments $YZ$. (Day 1, 2nd problem authors: Michal Rolínek, Jaroslav Švrček)

There are two different versions of this problem, each with different solutions. You must find bounds for each of these problems. [list] [*] Alice and Bob are playing a collaborative game in which they agree upon an encoding/strategy. Alice shuffles a deck of 52 cards (numbered 1-52) (*) and takes the first $n$ cards off the top of the deck. Alice then chooses one card to be put to the side, and chooses an ordering of the other $n-1$ cards. Bob then walks into the room seeing the $n-1$ cards in the order Alice put them in. For example, if Alice was given 9-4-10-51-7-8 and chose to put 8 to the side, she could put 5 cards in order of 9-4-10-51-7 which Bob would see. Find the lowest $n$ for which Bob could guarantee that he could use Alice's encoding to find the card placed to the side. (*) (If you would prefer, you can write your solution in terms of the deck being a standard deck with 4 suits and 13 ranks, there's a way to move between them that we can handle.) [*] Alice and Bob are playing a collaborative game in which they agree upon an encoding/strategy. Alice shuffles a deck of 52 cards (numbered 1-52) and takes the first $n$ cards off the top of the deck. Alice then chooses one card to be put to the side, and chooses an ordering of the other $n-1$ cards. Carol then comes in to the room and randomly discards one of the $n-1$ cards, and places the cards back in a way that preserves the order Alice had. Bob then walks into the room seeing the $n-2$ cards in the order Alice put them in. For example, if Alice was given 1-2-3-4-5-6 and chose to put 6 to the side, she would put 5 cards in order of 1-2-3-4-5, and Carol removed 4, Bob would see 1-2-3-5. Find the lowest $n$ for which Bob could guarantee that he could use Alice's encoding to find the card placed to the side. [/list] [i]Proposed by Eric Oh[/i]
