An infinite fairytale is a book with pages numbered $1,2,3,\ldots$ where all natural numbers appear.
An author wants to write an infinite fairytale such that a new dwarf is introduced on each page. Afterward, the page contains several discussions between groups of at least two of the already introduced dwarfs. The publisher wants to make the book more exciting and thus requests the following condition:
Every infinite set of dwarfs contains a group of at least two dwarfs, who formed a discussion group at some point as well as a group of the same size for which this is not true.
Can the author fulfill this condition?

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?

Kostas: I have in my mind three positive real numbers with product $1$ and sum equal to the sum of all their pairwise products.
Helene: I think that I know the numbers you have in mind. They are all equal to $1$.

On a straight road, points $1, 2, \ldots, n$ are marked. The distance between any two adjacent points is 1. A "placement" refers to the arrangement of $n$ cars, numbered with the same numbers, at the marked points (there can be multiple cars at one point). The "distance" between two placements is defined as the minimum total length of sections that need to be paved so that cars from the first placement can drive on the asphalt, forming the second one (cars can change places on the road). Prove that for any $\alpha<1$, there exists an integer number $n$ for which there are $100^n$ placements, the pairwise distances between which are greater than $\alpha n$.
