In a school with some students, for any three student, there exists at least one student who are friends with all these three students.(Friendships are mutual) For any friends $A$ and $B$, any two of their common friends are also friends with each other. It's not possible to partition these students into two groups, such that every student in each group are friends with all the students in the other gruop. Prove that any two people who aren't friends with each other, has the same number of common friends.(Each person is a friend of him/herself.)

Positive integers are written on all the faces of a cube, one on each. At each corner of the cube, the product of the numbers on the faces that meet at the vertex is written. The sum of the numbers written on the corners is 2004. If T denotes the sum of the numbers on all the faces, find the possible values of T.

Let $k$ be a positive integer. Two players $A$ and $B$ play a game on an infinite grid of regular hexagons. Initially all the grid cells are empty. Then the players alternately take turns with $A$ moving first. In his move, $A$ may choose two adjacent hexagons in the grid which are empty and place a counter in both of them. In his move, $B$ may choose any counter on the board and remove it. If at any time there are $k$ consecutive grid cells in a line all of which contain a counter, $A$ wins. Find the minimum value of $k$ for which $A$ cannot win in a finite number of moves, or prove that no such minimum value exists.

The managing director of AS Mull, a brokerage company for soap bubbles, air castles and cheese holes, kissed the sales manager lazily, claiming that the company's sales volume in December had decreased by more than $10\%$ compared to October. Muugijuht, on the other hand, wrote in his quarterly report that although each, in the first half of the month, sales decreased compared to the second half of the previous month $30\%$ of the time, it increased in the second half of each month compared to the first half of the same month by $35\%$. Was the CEO wrong when the sales manager's report is true?

For a given natural number $n$, two players randomly (uniformly distributed) select a common number $0 \le j \le n$, and then each of them independently randomly selects a subset of $\{1,2, \cdots, n \}$ with $j$ elements. Let $p_n$ be the probability that the same set was chosen. Prove that \[ \sum_{k=1}^{n} p_k = 2 \log{n} + 2 \gamma - 1 + o(1), \quad (n \to \infty),\] where $\gamma$ is the Euler constant.
