Below is a $4\times4$ grid. We wish to fill in the grid such that each row, each column, and each $2\times2$ square outlined by the double lines contains the digits 1 through 4. The first row has already been filled in. Find, with proof, the number of ways we can complete the rest of the grid. \[ \begin{tabular}{||c|c||c|c||}\hline\hline 1 & 2 & 3 & 4\\ \hline &&&\\ \hline\hline &&&\\ \hline &&&\\ \hline\hline \end{tabular} \]

Points $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$ and $E$ are placed on the circle. In how many ways can the resulting five arcs be designated by the letters $a$, $b$, $c$, $d$ and $e$, if it is forbidden to designate an arc with the same letter as one of its ends? (For example, an arc with ends $A$ and $B$ cannot be designated by the letter $a$ or $b$.)

Circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ intersect at two points $P$ and $Q$, and their common tangent line closer to $P$ intersects $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ at points $A$ and $B$, respectively. The line parallel to line $AB$ that passes through $P$ intersects $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ for the second time at points $X$ and $Y$, respectively. Suppose $PX = 10, PY = 14,$ and $PQ = 5$. Then the area of trapezoid $XABY$ is $m\sqrt{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are positive integers and $n$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $m + n$.

Let $n$ be a positive integer, and let $A$ be a subset of $\{ 1,\cdots ,n\}$. An $A$-partition of $n$ into $k$ parts is a representation of n as a sum $n = a_1 + \cdots + a_k$, where the parts $a_1 , \cdots , a_k $ belong to $A$ and are not necessarily distinct. The number of different parts in such a partition is the number of (distinct) elements in the set $\{ a_1 , a_2 , \cdots , a_k \} $. We say that an $A$-partition of $n$ into $k$ parts is optimal if there is no $A$-partition of $n$ into $r$ parts with $r<k$. Prove that any optimal $A$-partition of $n$ contains at most $\sqrt[3]{6n}$ different parts.

In Wonderland, the government of each country consists of exactly $a$ men and $b$ women, where $a$ and $b$ are fixed natural numbers and $b > 1$. For improving of relationships between countries, all possible working groups consisting of exactly one government member from each country, at least $n$ among whom are women, are formed (where $n$ is a fixed non-negative integer). The same person may belong to many working groups. Find all possibilities how many countries can be in Wonderland, given that the number of all working groups is prime.

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$, consider non-negative valued functions $f$ on $\{1,2, \cdots , n\}$ satisfying $f(i) \geqslant f(j)$ for $i>j$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{n} (i+ f(i))=2023.$ Choose $n$ such that $\sum_{i=1}^{n} f(i)$ is at least. How many such functions exist in that case?

A pair of positive integers $m, n$ is called [i]guerrera[/i], if there exists positive integers $a, b, c, d$ such that $m=ab$, $n=cd$ and $a+b=c+d$. For example the pair $8, 9$ is [i]guerrera[/i] cause $8= 4 \cdot 2$, $9= 3 \cdot 3$ and $4+2=3+3$. We paint the positive integers if the following order: We start painting the numbers $3$ and $5$. If a positive integer $x$ is not painted and a positive $y$ is painted such that the pair $x, y$ is [i]guerrera[/i], we paint $x$. Find all positive integers $x$ that can be painted.

On the last afternoon of the Kubik family vacation, Michael puts down a copy of $\textit{Mathematical Olympiad Challenges}$ and goes out to play tennis. Wendy notices the book and decides to see if there are a few problems in it that she can solve. She decides to focus her energy on one problem in particular: \[\begin{array}{l}\text{Given 69 distinct positive integers not exceeding 100, prove that one can}\\\text{choose four of them }a,b,c,d\text{ such that }a<b<c\text{ and } a+b+c=d. \text{ Is this}\\\text{statement true for 68 numbers?}\end{array}\] After some time working on the problem, Wendy finally feels like she has a grip on the solution. When Michael returns, she explains her solutions to him. "Well done!" he tells her. "Now, see if you can solve this generalization. Consider the set \[S=\{1,2,3,\ldots,2007,2008\}.\] Find the smallest value of $t$ such that given any subset $T$ of $S$ where $|T|=t$, then there are necessarily distinct $a,b,c,d\in T$ for which $a+b+c=d$." Find the answer to Michael's generalization.
