There is a unique ordered triple of real numbers $(a, b, c)$ that makes the piecewise function \begin{align*} f(x) = \begin{cases} (x - a)^2 + b & \text{if } x \geq c \\ x^3 - x & \text{if } x < c \end{cases} \end{align*} twice continuously differentiable for all real $x.$ The value of $a + b + c$ can be expressed as a common fraction $p/q.$ Compute $p + q.$

Let $f:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ a increasing continuous function, diferentiable in $(0,1)$ and with derivative smaller than 1 in every point. The sequence of sets $A_1,A_2,A_3,\dots$ is define as: $A_1 = f([0,1])$, and for $n \geq 2, A_n = f(A_{n-1}).$ Prove that $\displaystyle \lim_{n\to+\infty} d(A_n) = 0$, where $d(A)$ is the diameter of the set $A$. Note: The diameter of a set $X$ is define as $d(X) = \sup_{x,y\in X} |x-y|.$

Consider an arc of a planar curve such that the total curvature of the arc is less than $ \pi$. Suppose, further, that the curvature and its derivative with respect to the arc length exist at every point of the arc and the latter nowhere equals zero. Let the osculating circles belonging to the endpoints of the arc and one of these points be given. Determine the possible positions of the other endpoint.

Given that $b=1995,$ for how many ordered triples $(a, b, c)$ does such a plane exist?
