Some frogs, some red and some others green, are going to move in an $11 \times 11$ grid, according to the following rules. If a frog is located, say, on the square marked with # in the following diagram, then [list] [*]If it is red, it can jump to any square marked with an x. [*]if it is green, it can jump to any square marked with an o.[/list] \[\begin{tabular}{| p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | p{0.08cm} | l} \hline &&&&&&\\ \hline &&x&&o&&\\ \hline &o&&&&x&\\ \hline &&&\small{\#}&&&\\ \hline &x&&&&o&\\ \hline &&o&&x&&\\ \hline &&&&&&\\ \hline \end{tabular} \] We say 2 frogs (of any color) can meet at a square if both can get to the same square in one or more jumps, not neccesarily with the same amount of jumps. [list=a] [*]Prove if 6 frogs are placed, then there exist at least 2 that can meet at a square.

Initially given $31$ tuplets $$(1,0,0,\dots,0),(0,1,0,\dots,0),\dots, (0,0,0,\dots,1)$$ were written on the blackboard. At every move we choose two written $31$ tuplets as $(a_1,a_2,a_3,\dots, a_{31})$ and $(b_1,b_2,b_3,\dots,b_{31})$, then write the $31$ tuplet $(a_1+b_1,a_2+b_2,a_3+b_3,\dots, a_{31}+b_{31})$ to the blackboard too. Find the least possible value of the moves such that one can write the $31$ tuplets $$(0,1,1,\dots,1),(1,0,1,\dots,1),\dots, (1,1,1,\dots,0)$$ to the blackboard by using those moves.

Given that $ \{a_n\}$ is a sequence in which all the terms are integers, and $ a_2$ is odd. For any natural number $ n$, $ n(a_{n \plus{} 1} \minus{} a_n \plus{} 3) \equal{} a_{n \plus{} 1} \plus{} a_n \plus{} 3$. Furthermore, $ a_{2009}$ is divisible by $ 2010$. Find the smallest integer $ n > 1$ such that $ a_n$ is divisible by $ 2010$. P.S.: I saw EVEN instead of ODD. Got only half of the points.

On the plane is give a broken line $ABCD$ in which $AB = BC = CD = 1$, and $AD$ is not equal to $1$. The positions of $B$ and $C$ are fixed but $A$ and $D$ change their positions in turn according to the following rule (preserving the distance rules given): the point $A$ is reflected with respect to the line $BD$, then $D$ is reflected with respect to the line $AC$ (in which $A$ occupies its new position), then $A$ is reflected with respect to the line $BD$ ($D$ occupying its new position), $D$ is reflected with respect to the line $AC$, and so on. Prove that after several steps $A$ and $D$ coincide with their initial positions. (M Kontzewich)
