In the coordinate space, define a square $S$, defined by the inequality $|x|\leq 1,\ |y|\leq 1$ on the $xy$-plane, with four vertices $A(-1,\ 1,\ 0),\ B(1,\ 1,\ 0),\ C(1,-1,\ 0), D(-1,-1,\ 0)$. Let $V_1$ be the solid by a rotation of the square $S$ about the line $BD$ as the axis of rotation, and let $V_2$ be the solid by a rotation of the square $S$ about the line $AC$ as the axis of rotation.
(1) For a real number $t$ such that $0\leq t<1$, find the area of cross section of $V_1$ cut by the plane $x=t$.
(2) Find the volume of the common part of $V_1$ and $V_2$.

Let $n$ points be given inside a rectangle $R$ such that no two of them lie on a line parallel to one of the sides of $R$. The rectangle $R$ is to be dissected into smaller rectangles with sides parallel to the sides of $R$ in such a way that none of these rectangles contains any of the given points in its interior. Prove that we have to dissect $R$ into at least $n + 1$ smaller rectangles.

Lucy starts by writing $s$ integer-valued $2022$-tuples on a blackboard. After doing that, she can take any two (not necessarily distinct) tuples $\mathbf{v}=(v_1,\ldots,v_{2022})$ and $\mathbf{w}=(w_1,\ldots,w_{2022})$ that she has already written, and apply one of the following operations to obtain a new tuple:
\begin{align*}
\mathbf{v}+\mathbf{w}&=(v_1+w_1,\ldots,v_{2022}+w_{2022}) \\
\mathbf{v} \lor \mathbf{w}&=(\max(v_1,w_1),\ldots,\max(v_{2022},w_{2022}))
\end{align*}
and then write this tuple on the blackboard.
It turns out that, in this way, Lucy can write any integer-valued $2022$-tuple on the blackboard after finitely many steps. What is the smallest possible number $s$ of tuples that she initially wrote?

At a university dinner, there are 2017 mathematicians who each order two distinct entrées, with no two mathematicians ordering the same pair of entrées. The cost of each entrée is equal to the number of mathematicians who ordered it, and the university pays for each mathematician's less expensive entrée (ties broken arbitrarily). Over all possible sets of orders, what is the maximum total amount the university could have paid?

In a forest each of $n$ animals ($n\ge 3$) lives in its own cave, and there is exactly one separate path between any two of these caves. Before the election for King of the Forest some of the animals make an election campaign. Each campaign-making animal visits each of the other caves exactly once, uses only the paths for moving from cave to cave, never turns from one path to another between the caves and returns to its own cave in the end of its campaign. It is also known that no path between two caves is used by more than one campaign-making animal.
a) Prove that for any prime $n$, the maximum possible number of campaign-making animals is $\frac{n-1}{2}$.
b) Find the maximum number of campaign-making animals for $n=9$.

Consider the closed plane curves $C_i$ and $C_o,$ their respective lengths $|C_i|$ and $|C_o|,$ the closed surfaces $S_i$ and $S_o,$ and their respective areas $|S_i|$ and $|S_o|.$ Assume that $C_i$ lies inside $C_o$ and $S_i$ inside $S_o.$ (Subscript $i$ stands for "inner," $o$ for "outer.") Prove the correct assertions among the following four, and disprove the others.
(i) If $C_i$ is convex, $|C_i| \le |C_o|.$
(ii) If $S_i$ is convex, $|S_i| \le |S_o|.$
(iii) If $C_o$ is the smallest convex curve containing $C_i,$ then $|C_o| \le |C_i|.$
(iv) If $S_o$ is the smallest convex surface containing $S_i,$ then $|S_o| \le |S_i|.$
You may assume that $C_i$ and $C_o$ are polygons and $S_i$ and $S_o$ polyhedra.
