Let $ABC$ be a triangle. Choose points $A'$, $B'$ and $C'$ independently on side segments $BC$, $CA$ and $AB$ respectively with a uniform distribution. For a point $Z$ in the plane, let $p(Z)$ denote the probability that $Z$ is contained in the triangle enclosed by lines $AA'$, $BB'$ and $CC'$. For which interior point $Z$ in triangle $ABC$ is $p(Z)$ maximised?

You know that the binary function $\diamond$ takes in two non-negative integers and has the following properties: \begin{align*}0\diamond a&=1\\ a\diamond a&=0\end{align*} $\text{If } a<b, \text{ then } a\diamond b\&=(b-a)[(a-1)\diamond (b-1)].$ Find a general formula for $x\diamond y$, assuming that $y\gex>0$.

Let $P(x)$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients such that $P(0)=1$, and let $c > 1$ be an integer. Define $x_0=0$ and $x_{i+1} = P(x_i)$ for all integers $i \ge 0$. Show that there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ such that $\gcd (x_n, n+c)=1$. [i]Proposed by Milan Haiman and Carl Schildkraut[/i]

There are a) $2022$, b) $2023$ plates placed around a round table and on each of them there is one coin. Alice and Bob are playing a game that proceeds in rounds indefinitely as follows. In each round, Alice first chooses a plate on which there is at least one coin. Then Bob moves one coin from this plate to one of the two adjacent plates, chosen by him. Determine whether it is possible for Bob to select his moves so that, no matter how Alice selects her moves, there are never more than two coins on any plate.

For all positive integers $n$, let $f(n)$ return the smallest positive integer $k$ for which $\tfrac{n}{k}$ is not an integer. For example, $f(6) = 4$ because $1$, $2$, and $3$ all divide $6$ but $4$ does not. Determine the largest possible value of $f(n)$ as $n$ ranges over the set $\{1,2,\ldots, 3000\}$.
