[b]D[/b]enote $\phi=\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{2}$ and consider the set of all finite binary strings without leading zeroes. Each string $S$ has a “base-$\phi$” value $p(S)$. For example, $p(1101)=\phi^3+\phi^2+1$. For any positive integer n, let $f(n)$ be the number of such strings S that satisfy $p(S) =\frac{\phi^{48n}-1}{\phi^{48}-1}$. The sequence of fractions $\frac{f(n+1)}{f(n)}$ approaches a real number $c$ as $n$ goes to infinity. Determine the value of $c$.

2000 Canada National Olympiad, 2

A [i]permutation[/i] of the integers $1901, 1902, \cdots, 2000$ is a sequence $a_1, a_2, \cdots, a_{100}$ in which each of those integers appears exactly once. Given such a permutation, we form the sequence of partial sums \[s_1 = a_1,\;\;s_2 = a_1 + a_2,\;\;s_3 = a_1 + a_2 + a_3, \; \ldots\;, \; s_{100} = a_1 + a_2 + \cdots + a_{100}.\] How many of these permutations will have no terms of the sequence $s_1, \ldots, s_{100}$ divisible by three?

Antonio and Bernardo play the following game. They are given two piles of chips, one with $m$ and the other with $n$ chips. Antonio starts, and thereafter they make in turn one of the following moves: (i) take a chip from one pile; (ii) take a chip from each of the piles; (ii) remove a chip from one of the piles and put it onto the other. Who cannot make any more moves, loses. Decide, as a function of $m$ and $n$ if one of the players has a winning strategy, and in the case of the affirmative answer describe that strategy.

Let $k>1$. Fix a circle $\omega$ with center $O$ and radius $r$, and fix a point $A$ with $OA=kr$. Let $AB$, $AC$ be tangents to $\omega$. Choose a variable point $P$ on the minor arc $BC$ in $\omega$. Lines $AB$ and $CP$ intersect at $X$ and lines $AC$ and $BP$ intersect at $Y$. The circles $(BPX)$ and $(CPY)$ meet at another point $Z$. Prove that the line $PZ$ always passes through a fixed point except for one value of $k>1$, and determine this value.
