Suppose that $ a$, $ b$, and $ c$ are positive real numbers such that $ a^{\log_3 7} \equal{} 27$, $ b^{\log_7 11} \equal{} 49$, and $ c^{\log_{11} 25} \equal{} \sqrt {11}$. Find \[ a^{(\log_3 7)^2} \plus{} b^{(\log_7 11)^2} \plus{} c^{(\log_{11} 25)^2}. \]
Let u be a fixed positive integer. Prove that the equation $n! = u^{\alpha} - u^{\beta}$ has a finite number of solutions $(n, \alpha, \beta).$
Let \[N= \sum_{k=1}^{1000}k(\lceil \log_{\sqrt{2}}k\rceil-\lfloor \log_{\sqrt{2}}k \rfloor).\] Find the remainder when N is divided by 1000. (Here $\lfloor x \rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer that is less than or equal to x, and $\lceil x \rceil$ denotes the least integer that is greater than or equal to x.)

(3) Express $ I_{n\plus{}2}$ in terms of $ I_n$. (4) Find $ I_{\minus{}3},\ I_{\minus{}2},\ I_3$. (5) Evaluate the definite integrals $ \int_0^1 \sqrt{x^2\plus{}1}\ dx,\ \int_0^1 \frac{dx}{(x^2\plus{}1)^2}\ dx$ in using the avobe results. You are not allowed to use the formula of integral for $ \sqrt{x^2\plus{}1}$ directively here.
Two sequences of positive reals, $ \left(x_n\right)$ and $ \left(y_n\right)$, satisfy the relations $ x_{n \plus{} 2} \equal{} x_n \plus{} x_{n \plus{} 1}^2$ and $ y_{n \plus{} 2} \equal{} y_n^2 \plus{} y_{n \plus{} 1}$ for all natural numbers $ n$. Prove that, if the numbers $ x_1$, $ x_2$, $ y_1$, $ y_2$ are all greater than $ 1$, then there exists a natural number $ k$ such that $ x_k > y_k$.

Let $a$ and $b$ be positive real numbers such that $\log_{43}{a} = \log_{47} (3a + 4b) = \log_{2021}b^2$. Then, the value of $\tfrac{b^2}{a^2}$ can be written as $m + \sqrt{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are integers. Find $m + n$.
For a positive integer $k$, let $s(k)$ denote the sum of the digits of $k$. Show that there are infinitely many natural numbers $n$ such that $s(2^n) > s(2^{n+1})$.
For each integer $k\ge2$, the decimal expansions of the numbers $1024,1024^2,\dots,1024^k$ are concatenated, in that order, to obtain a number $X_k$. (For example, $X_2 = 10241048576$.) If \[ \frac{X_n}{1024^n} \] is an odd integer, find the smallest possible value of $n$, where $n\ge2$ is an integer. [i]Proposed by Evan Chen[/i]
Let $p$ and $n$ be positive integers, with $p\geq2$, and let $a$ be a real number such that $1\leq a<a+n\leq p$.

From the identity $$ \int_{0}^{\pi \slash 2} \log \sin 2x \, dx = \int_{0}^{\pi \slash 2} \log \sin x \, dx + \int_{0}^{\pi \slash 2} \log \cos x \, dx +\int_{0}^{\pi \slash 2} \log 2 \, dx, $$ deduce the value of $\int_{0}^{\pi \slash 2} \log \sin x \, dx.$
