Three points are chosen randomly and independently on a circle. The probability that all three pairwise distance between the points are less than the radius of the circle is $\frac{1}{K}$, $K\in\mathbb{N}$. Find $K$.
Consider the functions $f,g:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $f{}$ is continous. For any real numbers $a<b<c$ there exists a sequence $(x_n)_{n\geqslant 1}$ which converges to $b{}$ and for which the limit of $g(x_n)$ as $n{}$ tends to infinity exists and satisfies \[f(a)<\lim_{n\to\infty}g(x_n)<f(c).\][list=a]
[*]Give an example of a pair of such functions $f,g$ for which $g{}$ is discontinous at every point.
[*]Prove that if $g{}$ is monotonous, then $f=g.$

Evaluate $\lim_{n\to\infty}\left[\left(\prod_{k=1}^{n}\frac{2k}{2k-1}\right)\int_{-1}^{\infty}\frac{(\cos x)^{2n}}{2^x} \, dx\right]$.
Suppose that $P_c(z)=z^2+c$. You are familiar with the Mandelbrot set: $M=\{c\in \mathbb{C} | \lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}P_c^n(0)\neq \infty\}$.
We know that if $c\in M$ then the points of the dynamical system $(\mathbb{C},P_c)$ that don't converge to $\infty$ are connected and otherwise they are completely disconnected. By seeing the properties of periodic points of $P_c$ prove the following ones:
a) Prove the existance of the heart like shape in the Mandelbrot set.
b) Prove the existance of the large circle next to the heart like shape in the Mandelbrot set.
