For any positive integers $a,b,c,n$, we define
$$D_n(a,b,c)=\mathrm{gcd}(a+b+c,a^2+b^2+c^2,a^n+b^n+c^n).$$
1. Prove that if $n$ is a positive integer not divisible by $3$, then for any positive integer $k$, there exist three integers $a,b,c$ such that $\mathrm{gcd}(a,b,c)=1$, and $D_n(a,b,c)>k$.
2. For any positive integer $n$ divisible by $3$, find all values of $D_n(a,b,c)$, where $a,b,c$ are three positive integers such that $\mathrm{gcd}(a,b,c)=1$.

Charlotte writes the integers $1,2,3,\ldots,2025$ on the board. Charlotte has two operations available: the GCD operation and the LCM operation.
[list]
[*]The GCD operation consists of choosing two integers $a$ and $b$ written on the board, erasing them, and writing the integer $\operatorname{gcd}(a, b)$.
[*]The LCM operation consists of choosing two integers $a$ and $b$ written on the board, erasing them, and writing the integer $\operatorname{lcm}(a, b)$.
[/list]
An integer $N$ is called a [i]winning number[/i] if there exists a sequence of operations such that, at the end, the only integer left on the board is $N$. Find all winning integers among $\{1,2,3,\ldots,2025\}$ and, for each of them, determine the minimum number of GCD operations Charlotte must use.
[b]Note:[/b] The number $\operatorname{gcd}(a, b)$ denotes the [i]greatest common divisor[/i] of $a$ and $b$, while the number $\operatorname{lcm}(a, b)$ denotes the [i]least common multiple[/i] of $a$ and $b$.

Let $n > 1$ be an integer.
Determine the greatest common divisor of the set of numbers $\left\{ \left( \begin{matrix}

i.e. the largest positive integer, dividing $\left( \begin{matrix}

Suppose $ \,G\,$ is a connected graph with $ \,k\,$ edges. Prove that it is possible to label the edges $ 1,2,\ldots ,k\,$ in such a way that at each vertex which belongs to two or more edges, the greatest common divisor of the integers labeling those edges is equal to 1.

Each pair of vertices $ \,u,v\,$ belongs to at most one edge.
