It is known that there is a number $S$ such that if $ a+b+c+d = S$ and $\frac{1}{a}+ \frac{1}{b}+ \frac{1}{c}+ \frac{1}{d} = S$ $(a, b, c, d$ are different from zero and one$)$, then $\frac{1}{a- 1} ++ \frac{1}{b- 1} + \frac{1}{c- 1} + \frac{1}{d -1} = S.$ Find $S$.

Denote by $\mathbb{Z}^{*}$ the set of all nonzero integers and denote by $\mathbb{N}_{0}$ the set of all nonnegative integers. Find all functions $f:\mathbb{Z}^{*} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}_{0}$ such that:
$(1)$ For all $a,b \in \mathbb{Z}^{*}$ such that $a+b \in \mathbb{Z}^{*}$ we have $f(a+b) \geq $ [b]min[/b] $\left \{ f(a),f(b) \right \}$.

Bunbury the bunny is hopping on the positive integers. First, he is told a positive integer $n$. Then Bunbury chooses positive integers $a,d$ and hops on all of the spaces $a,a+d,a+2d,\dots,a+2013d$. However, Bunbury must make these choices so that the number of every space that he hops on is less than $n$ and relatively prime to $n$.
A positive integer $n$ is called [i]bunny-unfriendly[/i] if, when given that $n$, Bunbury is unable to find positive integers $a,d$ that allow him to perform the hops he wants. Find the maximum bunny-unfriendly integer, or prove that no such maximum exists.

A robot is placed at point $P$ on the $x$-axis but different from $(0,0)$ and $(1,0)$ and can only move along the axis either to the left or to the right. Two players play the following game. Player $A$ gives a distance and $B$ gives a direction and the robot will move the indicated distance along the indicated direction. Player $A$ aims to move the robot to either $(0,0)$ or $(1,0)$. Player $B$'s aim is to stop $A$ from achieving his aim. For which $P$ can $A$ win?

Yu Semo and Yu Sejmo have created sequences of symbols $\mathcal{U} = (\text{U}_1, \ldots, \text{U}_6)$ and $\mathcal{J} = (\text{J}_1, \ldots, \text{J}_6)$. These sequences satisfy the following properties.
[list]
[*] Each of the twelve symbols must be $\Sigma$, $\#$, $\triangle$, or $\mathbb{Z}$.
[*] In each of the sets $\{\text{U}_1, \text{U}_2, \text{U}_4, \text{U}_5\}$, $\{\text{J}_1, \text{J}_2, \text{J}_4, \text{J}_5\}$, $\{\text{U}_1, \text{U}_2, \text{U}_3\}$, $\{\text{U}_4, \text{U}_5, \text{U}_6\}$, $\{\text{J}_1, \text{J}_2, \text{J}_3\}$, $\{\text{J}_4, \text{J}_5, \text{J}_6\}$, no two symbols may be the same.
[*] If integers $d \in \{0, 1\}$ and $i, j \in \{1, 2, 3\}$ satisfy $\text{U}_{i + 3d} = \text{J}_{j + 3d}$, then $i < j$.

having exactly $4$ divisors. If the good set $M$ has $n$ elements, we denote by
$S_{M}$ the sum of all $4n$ divisors of its members (the sum may contain
repeating terms).

There is an $n\times n$ chessboard where $n\geq 4$ is a positive even number. The cells of the chessboard are coloured black and white such that adjacent cells sharing a common side have different colours. Let $A$ and $B$ be two interior cells (which means cells not lying on an edge of the chessboard) of distinct colours. Prove that a chess piece can move from $A$ to $B$ by moving across adjacent cells such that every cell of the chessboard is passed through exactly once.

Let $a$ be a positive real number. Collinear points $Z_1, Z_2, Z_3, Z_4$ (in that order) are plotted on the $(x, y)$ Cartesian plane. Suppose that the graph of the equation
\[
x^2 + (y+a)^2 + x^2 + (y-a)^2 = 4a^2 + \sqrt{(x^2 + (y+a)^2)(x^2 + (y-a)^2)}
\]
passes through points $Z_1$ and $Z_4$, and the graph of the equation
\[
x^2 + (y+a)^2 + x^2 + (y-a)^2 = 4a^2 - \sqrt{(x^2 + (y+a)^2)(x^2 + (y-a)^2)}
\]
passes through points $Z_2$ and $Z_3$. If $Z_1Z_2 = 5$, $Z_2Z_3 = 1$, and $Z_3Z_4 = 3$, then $a^2$ can be written as $\frac{m + n\sqrt{p}}{q}$, where $m$, $n$, $p$, and $q$ are positive integers, $m$, $n$, and $q$ are relatively prime, and $p$ is squarefree. Find $m + n + p + q$.
