2006 Korea National Olympiad, 2

Alice and Bob are playing "factoring game." On the paper, $270000(=2^43^35^4)$ is written and each person picks one number from the paper(call it $N$) and erase $N$ and writes integer $X,Y$ such that $N=XY$ and $\text{gcd}(X,Y)\ne1.$ Alice goes first and the person who can no longer make this factoring loses. If two people use optimal strategy, prove that Alice always win.

Find all triples $(p, x, y)$ consisting of a prime number $p$ and two positive integers $x$ and $y$ such that $x^{p -1} + y$ and $x + y^ {p -1}$ are both powers of $p$. [i]Proposed by Belgium[/i]

A number $x$ is "Tlahuica" if there exist prime numbers $p_1,\ p_2,\ \dots,\ p_k$ such that \[x=\frac{1}{p_1}+\frac{1}{p_2}+\dots+\frac{1}{p_k}.\] Find the largest Tlahuica number $x$ such that $0<x<1$ and there exists a positive integer $m\leq 2022$ such that $mx$ is an integer.

Distinct positive integers $a, b, c, d$ satisfy $$\begin{cases} a \mid b^2 + c^2 + d^2,\\ b\mid a^2 + c^2 + d^2,\\ c \mid a^2 + b^2 + d^2,\\ d \mid a^2 + b^2 + c^2,\end{cases}$$ and none of them is larger than the product of the three others. What is the largest possible number of primes among them?

Find all primes $p,q, r$ such that $\frac{p^{2q}+q^{2p}}{p^3-pq+q^3} = r$. Titu Andreescu, Mathematics Department, College of Texas, USA

2017 JBMO Shortlist, NT5

Find all positive integers $n$ such that there exists a prime number $p$, such that $p^n-(p-1)^n$ is a power of $3$. Note. A power of $3$ is a number of the form $3^a$ where $a$ is a positive integer.

2012 Tournament of Towns, 5

Let $p$ be a prime number. A set of $p + 2$ positive integers, not necessarily distinct, is called [i]interesting [/i] if the sum of any $p$ of them is divisible by each of the other two. Determine all interesting sets.

2012 EGMO, 5

The numbers $p$ and $q$ are prime and satisfy \[\frac{p}{{p + 1}} + \frac{{q + 1}}{q} = \frac{{2n}}{{n + 2}}\] for some positive integer $n$. Find all possible values of $q-p$. [i]Luxembourg (Pierre Haas)[/i]

Determine the smallest integer $k > 1$ such that there exist $k$ distinct primes whose squares sum to a power of $2$.

Find all triples $(p, x, y)$ consisting of a prime number $p$ and two positive integers $x$ and $y$ such that $x^{p -1} + y$ and $x + y^ {p -1}$ are both powers of $p$. [i]Proposed by Belgium[/i]

2013 Danube Mathematical Competition, 2

Let $a, b, c, n$ be four integers, where n$\ge 2$, and let $p$ be a prime dividing both $a^2+ab+b^2$ and $a^n+b^n+c^n$, but not $a+b+c$. for instance, $a \equiv b \equiv -1 (mod \,\, 3), c \equiv 1 (mod \,\, 3), n$ a positive even integer, and $p = 3$ or $a = 4, b = 7, c = -13, n = 5$, and $p = 31$ satisfy these conditions. Show that $n$ and $p - 1$ are not coprime.
