2015 Czech and Slovak Olympiad III A, 2

Let $A=[0,0]$ and $B=[n,n]$. In how many ways can we go from $A$ to $B$, if we always want to go from lattice point to its neighbour (i.e. point with one coordinate the same and one smaller or bigger by one), we never want to visit the same point twice and we want our path to have length $2n+2$? (For example, path $[0,0],[0,1],[-1,1],[-1,2],[0,2],[1,2],[2,2],[2,3],[3,3]$ is one of the paths for $n=3$)

A sequence of positive integers $a_1, a_2, \ldots$ satisfies $a_k + a_l = a_m + a_n$ for all positive integers $k,l,m,n$ satisfying $kl = mn$. Prove that if $p$ divides $q$ then $a_p \le a_q$.

For every positive integer $n$, let $p(n)$ denote the number of sets $\{x_1, x_2, \dots, x_k\}$ of integers with $x_1 > x_2 > \dots > x_k > 0$ and $n = x_1 + x_3 + x_5 + \dots$ (the right hand side here means the sum of all odd-indexed elements). As an example, $p(6) = 11$ because all satisfying sets are as follows: $$\{6\}, \{6, 5\}, \{6, 4\}, \{6, 3\}, \{6, 2\}, \{6, 1\}, \{5, 4, 1\}, \{5, 3, 1\}, \{5, 2, 1\}, \{4, 3, 2\}, \{4, 3, 2, 1\}.$$ Show that $p(n)$ equals to the number of partitions of $n$ for every positive integer $n$.
