Let function $f : \mathbb Z_{\geq 0}^0 \to \mathbb N$ satisfy the following conditions: (i) $ f(0, 0, 0) = 1;$ (ii) $f(x, y, z) = f(x - 1, y, z) + f(x, y - 1, z) + f(x, y, z - 1);$ (iii) when applying above relation iteratively, if any of $x', y', z$' is negative, then $f(x', y', z') = 0.$ Prove that if $x, y, z$ are the side lengths of a triangle, then $\frac{\left(f(x,y,z) \right) ^k}{ f(mx ,my, mz)}$ is not an integer for any integers $k, m > 1.$
Find all functions $ f: \mathbb{N^{*}}\to \mathbb{N^{*}}$ satisfying \[ \left(f^{2}\left(m\right)+f\left(n\right)\right) \mid \left(m^{2}+n\right)^{2}\] for any two positive integers $ m$ and $ n$. [i]Remark.[/i] The abbreviation $ \mathbb{N^{*}}$ stands for the set of all positive integers: $ \mathbb{N^{*}}=\left\{1,2,3,...\right\}$. By $ f^{2}\left(m\right)$, we mean $ \left(f\left(m\right)\right)^{2}$ (and not $ f\left(f\left(m\right)\right)$). [i]Proposed by Mohsen Jamali, Iran[/i]
