Let G be an abelian group, $0\leq\varepsilon<1$ and $f : G\to\Bbb R^n$ a function that satisfies the inequality.

The computer "Intel stump-V" can do only one operation with a number: add 1 to it, then rearrange all the zeros in the decimal representation to the end and rearrenge the left digits in any order. (For example from 1004 you could get 1500 or 5100). The number $12345$ was written on the computer and after performing 400 operations, the number 100000 appeared on the screen. How many times has a number with the last digit 0 appeared on the screen?

10000 children came to a camp; every of them is friend of exactly eleven other children in the camp (friendship is mutual). Every child wears T-shirt of one of seven rainbow's colours; every two friends' colours are different. Leaders demanded that some children (at least one) wear T-shirts of other colours (from those seven colours). Survey pointed that 100 children didn't want to change their colours [translator's comment: it means that any of these 100 children (and only them) can't change his (her) colour such that still every two friends' colours will be different]. Prove that some of other children can change colours of their T-shirts such that as before every two friends' colours will be different.

Cozy the Cat and Dash the Dog are going up a staircase with a certain number of steps. However, instead of walking up the steps one at a time, both Cozy and Dash jump. Cozy goes two steps up with each jump (though if necessary, he will just jump the last step). Dash goes five steps up with each jump (though if necessary, he will just jump the last steps if there are fewer than 5 steps left). Suppose the Dash takes 19 fewer jumps than Cozy to reach the top of the staircase. Let $s$ denote the sum of all possible numbers of steps this staircase can have. What is the sum of the digits of $s$?

Let $A$ be the set of permutations $a=(a_1,a_2,…,a_n)$ of $M=\{1,2,…n\}$ with the following property: There doesn’t exist a subset $S$ of $M$ such that $a(S)=S$. For $\forall$ such permutation $a$ let $d(a)=\sum_{k=1}^n (a_k-k)^2$ . Determine the smallest value of $d(a)$.

Let $k$ be a given natural number. Prove that for any positive numbers $x; y; z$ with
the sum $1$ the following inequality holds:
\[\frac{x^{k+2}}{x^{k+1}+y^{k}+z^{k}}+\frac{y^{k+2}}{y^{k+1}+z^{k}+x^{k}}+\frac{z^{k+2}}{z^{k+1}+x^{k}+y^{k}}\geq \frac{1}{7}.\]

Vulcan and Neptune play a turn-based game on an infinite grid of unit squares. Before the game starts, Neptune chooses a finite number of cells to be [i]flooded[/i]. Vulcan is building a [i]levee[/i], which is a subset of unit edges of the grid (called [i]walls[/i]) forming a connected, non-self-intersecting path or loop*.
The game then begins with Vulcan moving first. On each of Vulcan’s turns, he may add up to three new walls to the levee (maintaining the conditions for the levee). On each of Neptune’s turns, every cell which is adjacent to an already flooded cell and with no wall between them becomes flooded as well. Prove that Vulcan can always, in a finite number of turns, build the levee into a closed loop such that all flooded cells are contained in the interior of the loop, regardless of which cells Neptune initially floods.
-----
[size=75]*More formally, there must exist lattice points $\mbox{\footnotesize \(A_0, A_1, \dotsc, A_k\)}$, pairwise distinct except possibly $\mbox{\footnotesize \(A_0 = A_k\)}$, such that the set of walls is exactly $\mbox{\footnotesize \(\{A_0A_1, A_1A_2, \dotsc , A_{k-1}A_k\}\)}$. Once a wall is built it cannot be destroyed; in particular, if the levee is a closed loop (i.e. $\mbox{\footnotesize \(A_0 = A_k\)}$) then Vulcan cannot add more walls. Since each wall has length $\mbox{\footnotesize \(1\)}$, the length of the levee is $\mbox{\footnotesize \(k\)}$.[/size]

In some country several pairs of cities are connected by direct two-way flights. It is possible to go from any city to any other by a sequence of flights. The distance between two cities is defined to be the least possible numbers of flights required to go from one of them to the other. It is known that for any city there are at most $100$ cities at distance exactly three from it. Prove that there is no city such that more than $2550$ other cities have distance exactly four from it.

Two circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ have centers $O_1$ and $O_2$, respectively, and intersect at points $M$ and $N$. The radii of $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are $12$ and $15$, respectively, and $O_1O_2 = 18$. A point $X$ is chosen on segment $MN$. Line $O_1X$ intersects $\omega_2$ at points $A$ and $C$, where $A$ is inside $\omega_1$. Similarly, line $O_2X$ intersects $\omega_1$ at points $B$ and $D$, where $B$ is inside $\omega_2$. The perpendicular bisectors of segments $AB$ and $CD$ intersect at point $P$. Given that $PO_1 = 30$, find $PO_2^2$.
