In this infinite tree, degree of each vertex is equal to 3. A real number $ \lambda$ is given. We want to assign a real number to each node in such a way that for each node sum of numbers assigned to its neighbors is equal to $ \lambda$ times of the number assigned to this node. Find all $ \lambda$ for which this is possible.

What is the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $15! \, m$ can be expressed in more than one way as a product of $16$ distinct positive integers, up to order?

Consider the diagonals $A_1A_3, A_2A_4, A_3A_5, A_4A_6, A_5A_4$ and $A_6A_2$ of a convex hexagon $A_1A_2A_3A_4A_5A_6$. The hexagon whose vertices are the points of intersection of the diagonals is regular. Can we conclude that the hexagon $A_1A_2A_3A_4A_5A_6$ is also regular?

Alice and Bob play a game, in which they take turns drawing segments of length $1$ in the Euclidean plane. Alice begins, drawing the first segment, and from then on, each segment must start at the endpoint of the previous segment. It is not permitted to draw the segment lying over the preceding one. If the new segment shares at least one point - except for its starting point - with one of the previously drawn segments, one has lost. a) Show that both Alice and Bob could force the game to end, if they don’t care who wins. b) Is there a winning strategy for one of them?

Let $ABCD$ be a convex quadrilateral with $AD = BC$, $\angle BAC+\angle DCA = 180^{\circ}$, and $\angle BAC \neq 90^{\circ}.$ Let $O_1$ and $O_2$ be the circumcenters of triangles $ABC$ and $CAD$, respectively. Prove that one intersection point of the circumcircles of triangles $O_1BC$ and $O_2AD$ lies on $AC$.

Four congruent semicircular half-disks are arranged inside a circle with radius $4$ so that each semicircle is internally tangent to the circle, and the diameters of the semicircles form a $2\times 2$ square centered at the center of the circle as shown. The radius of each semicircular half-disk is $\frac{m}{n}$ , where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$.

Let $a$ and $b$ be distinct real numbers. Prove that there exist integers $m$ and $n$ such that $am+bn<0$, $bm+an>0$.

MTRPia in $2044$ is highly advanced and a lot of the work is done by disc-shaped robots, each of radius $1$ unit. In order to not collide with each other, there robots have a smaller $360$-degree camera mounted on top, as shown in the figure (robot $r_1$ 'sees' robot $r_2$). Each of there cameras themselves are smaller discs of radius $c$. Suppose there are three robots $r_1, r_2, r_3$ placed 'consecutively' such that $r_2$ is roughly in the middle. The angle between the lines joining the centres of $r_1, r_2$ and $r_2, r_3$ is given to be $\theta$. The distance between the centres of $r_1,r_2 = $ distance between centres of $r_2,r_3 = d$. Show (with the aid of clear diagrams) that $r_1$ and $r_3$ can see each other iff $\sin{\theta} > \frac{1-c}{d}$. As a bonus, try to show that in a longer 'chain' of such robots (same $d$, $\theta$), if $\sin{\theta} > \frac{1-c}{d}$ then all robots can see each other.

There are $100$ points of general position marked on the plane (i.e. no three lie on the same straight line). Prove that it is possible to select three marked points $A, B, C$ so that for any point $D$ of the remaining $97$ marked points, the lines $AD$ and $CD$ would not contain points lying inside the triangle $ABC$.

Farmer John owns 2013 cows. Some cows are enemies of each other, and Farmer John wishes to divide them into as few groups as possible such that each cow has at most 3 enemies in her group. Each cow has at most 61 enemies. Compute the smallest integer $G$ such that, no matter which enemies they have, the cows can always be divided into at most $G$ such groups?

In triangle $ABC$, medians $AA'$, $BB'$, $CC'$ are extended until they intersect with the circumcircle at points $A_0$, $B_0$, $C_0$, respectively. It is known that the intersection point M of the medians of triangle $ABC$ divides the segment $AA_0$ in half. Prove that the triangle $A_0B_0C_0$ is isosceles.

Ada and Charles play the following game:at the beginning, an integer n>1 is written on the blackboard.In turn, Ada and Charles remove the number k that they find on the blackboard.In turn Ad and Charles remove the number k that they find on the blackboard and they replace it : 1 -either with a positive divisor k different from 1 and k 2- or with k+1 At the beginning each players have a thousand points each.When a player choses move 1, he/she gains one point;when a player choses move 2, he/she loses one point.The game ends when one of the tho players is left with zero points and this player loses the game.Ada moves first.For what values Chares has a winning strategy?
