Given a polygon with $n$ sides, we assign the numbers $0,1,...,n-1$ to the vertices, and to each side is assigned the sum of the numbers assigned to its ends. The figure shows an example for $n = 5$. Notice that the numbers assigned to the sides are still in arithmetic progression.

Given an endless supply of white, blue and red cubes. In a circle arrange any $N$ of them. The robot, standing in any place of the circle, goes clockwise and, until one cube remains, constantly repeats this operation: destroys the two closest cubes in front of him and puts a new one behind him a cube of the same color if the destroyed ones are the same, and the third color if the destroyed two are different colors. We will call the arrangement of the cubes [i]good [/i] if the color of the cube remaining at the very end does not depends on where the robot started. We call $N$ [i]successful [/i] if for any choice of $N$ cubes all their arrangements are good. Find all successful $N$. I. Bogdanov

Cai and Lai are eating cookies. Their cookies are in the shape of $2$ regular hexagons glued to each other, and the cookies have area $18$ units. They each make a cut along the $2$ long diagonals of a cookie; this now makes four pieces for them to eat and enjoy. What is the minimum area among the four pieces? [i]Proposed by Richard Chen[/i]

Call the [i]improvement [/i] of a positive number its replacement by a power of two. (i.e. one of the numbers $1, 2, 4, 8, ...$), for which it increases, but not more than than $3$ times.

Prove that you can erase some of them, and [i]improve [/i] each of the other numbers so that the sum the resulting numbers were again $2^{100}$.

A random such coloring is chosen: what is the probability there is a path of black squares going from the top row to the bottom row where any two consecutive squares in the path are adjacent?
