2022 Indonesia MO, 7
Let $A$ be the sequence of zeroes and ones (binary sequence). The sequence can be modified by the following operation: we may pick a block or a contiguous subsequence where there are an unequal number of zeroes and ones, and then flip their order within the block (so block $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_r$ becomes $a_r, a_{r-1}, \ldots, a_1$).
As an example, let $A$ be the sequence $1,1,0,0,1$. We can pick block $1,0,0$ and flip it, so the sequence $1,\boxed{1,0,0},1$ becomes $1,\boxed{0,0,1},1$. However, we cannot pick block $1,1,0,0$ and flip their order since they contain the same number of $1$s and $0$s.
Two sequences $A$ and $B$ are called [i]related[/i] if $A$ can be transformed into $B$ using a finite number the operation mentioned above.
Determine the largest natural number $n$ for which there exists $n$ different sequences $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_n$ where each sequence consists of 2022 digits, and for every index $i \neq j$, the sequence $A_i$ is not related to $A_j$.

Let's name a point $P$ [i]special [/i] if more than half of the points connected with $P$ has a color other than point $P$. Juku selects one special point and reverses its color. Then Juku selects a new special point and changes its color, etc. Prove that by a finite number of integers Juku ends up in a situation where the paper has not made a special point.

Let $P(x)$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients that has at least one rational root. Let $n$ be a positive integer.
Alan and Allan are playing a game. First, Alan writes down $n$ integers at $n$ different locations on a board. Then Allan may make moves of the following kind: choose a position that has integer $a$ written, then choose a different position that has integer $b$ written, then at the first position erase $a$ and in its place write $a+P(b)$. After any nonnegative number of moves, Allan may choose to end the game. Once Allan ends the game, his score is the number of times the mode (most common element) of the integers on the board appears.
Find, in terms of $P(x)$ and $n$, the maximum score Allan can guarantee.
