Given a triangle $A_1 A_2 A_3$, let $a_i$ denote the side opposite to $A_i$, where indices are taken modulo 3. Let $D_1 \in a_1$. For $D_i \in A_i$, let $\omega_i$ be the incircle of the triangle formed by lines $a_i, a_{i+1}, A_iD_i$, and $D_{i+1} \in a_{i+1}$ with $A_{i+1} D_{i+1}$ tangent to $\omega_i$. Show that the set $\{D_i: i \in \mathbb{N}\}$ is finite.

In a classroom there are $m$ students. During the month of July each of them visited the library at least once but none of them visited the library twice in the same day. It turned out that during the month of July each student visited the library a different number of times, furthermore for any two students $A$ and $B$ there was a day in which $A$ visited the library and $B$ did not and there was also a day when $B$ visited the library and $A$ did not do so.
Determine the largest possible value of $m$.

A sequence of integers $a_0, a_1 …$ is called [i]kawaii[/i] if $a_0 =0, a_1=1,$ and $$(a_{n+2}-3a_{n+1}+2a_n)(a_{n+2}-4a_{n+1}+3a_n)=0$$ for all integers $n \geq 0$. An integer is called [i]kawaii[/i] if it belongs to some kawaii sequence.
Suppose that two consecutive integers $m$ and $m+1$ are both kawaii (not necessarily belonging to the same kawaii sequence). Prove that $m$ is divisible by $3,$ and that $m/3$ is also kawaii.

There are 100 positive integers written on a board. At each step, Alex composes 50 fractions using each number written on the board exactly once, brings these fractions to their irreducible form, and then replaces the 100 numbers on the board with the new numerators and denominators to create 100 new numbers.
Find the smallest positive integer $n{}$ such that regardless of the values of the initial 100 numbers, after $n{}$ steps Alex can arrange to have on the board only pairwise coprime numbers.

[b]p1.[/b] Two players play the following game. On the lowest left square of an $8 \times 8$ chessboard there is a rook (castle). The first player is allowed to move the rook up or to the right by an arbitrary number of squares. The second layer is also allowed to move the rook up or to the right by an arbitrary number of squares. Then the first player is allowed to do this again, and so on. The one who moves the rook to the upper right square wins. Who has a winning strategy?

In a group of $2n$ students, each student has exactly $3$ friends within the group. The friendships are mutual and for each two students $A$ and $B$ which are not friends, there is a sequence $C_1, C_2, ..., C_r$ of students such that $A$ is a friend of $C_1$, $C_1$ is a friend of $C_2$, et cetera, and $C_r$ is a friend of $B$.
Every student was asked to assess each of his three friendships with: "acquaintance", "friend" and "BFF". It turned out that each student either gave the same assessment to all of his friends or gave every assessment exactly once.
We say that a pair of students is in conflict if they gave each other different assessments. Let $D$ be the set of all possible values of the total number of conflicts.
Prove that $|D| \geq 3n$ with equality if and only if the group can be partitioned into two subsets such that each student is separated from all of his friends.

Since counting the numbers from 1 to 100 wasn't enough to stymie Gauss, his teacher devised another clever problem that he was sure would stump Gauss. Defining $\zeta_{15} = e^{2\pi i/15}$ where $i = \sqrt{-1}$, the teacher wrote the 15 complex numbers $\zeta_{15}^k$ for integer $0 \le k < 15$ on the board. Then, he told Gauss:
On every turn, erase two random numbers $a, b$, chosen uniformly randomly, from the board and then write the term $2ab - a - b + 1$ on the board instead. Repeat this until you have one number left. What is the expected value of the last number remaining on the board?
