Let $O$, $I$ be the circumcenter and the incenter of triangle $ABC$, respectively, and let the incircle tangents $BC$ at $D$. Furthermore, suppose that $H$ is the orthocenter of triangle $BIC$, $N$ is the midpoint of the arc $BAC$, and $X$ is the intersection of $OI$ and $NH$. If $P$ is the reflection of $A$ with respect to $OI$, show that $\odot(IDP)$ and $\odot(IHX)$ are tangent to each other.

Numbers in an $n$ by $n$ table may be changed by adding $1$ to each number on an arbitrary closed non-selfintersecting “rook path” (a broken line with segments parallel to the borders of the table). Originally $1$’s stand on one of the diagonals, and $0S’s in the other cells of the table. Can one get (after several transformations) a table in which all numbers are equal to each other? (A “rook path” contains all cells through which it passes.) (AA Egorov)

Given a polynomial $f(x) = x^4+ax^3+bx^2+cx$. It is known that each of the equations $f(x) = 1$ and $f(x) = 2$ has four real roots (not necessarily distinct). Prove that if the roots of the first equation satisfy the equality $x_1 + x_2 = x_3 + x_4$, then the same equation holds for the roots of the second equation

Given an acute-angled triangle $ABC$ in which $|AB| <|AC|$. Point $D$ is the midpoint of the shorter arc $BC$ of its circumcircle. The point $I$ is the center of its incircle, and the point $J$ is symmetric point of $I$ wrt line $BC$. The line $DJ$ intersects the circumcircle of the triangle $ABC$ at the point $E$ belonging to the arc $AB$. Prove that $|AI |= |IE|$.

Let $k$ be a positive integer. Determine the least positive integer $n$, with $n\geq k+1$, for which the game below can be played indefinitely: Consider $n$ boxes, labelled $b_1,b_2,...,b_n$. For each index $i$, box $b_i$ contains exactly $i$ coins. At each step, the following three substeps are performed in order: [b](1)[/b] Choose $k+1$ boxes; [b](2)[/b] Of these $k+1$ boxes, choose $k$ and remove at least half of the coins from each, and add to the remaining box, if labelled $b_i$, a number of $i$ coins. [b](3)[/b] If one of the boxes is left empty, the game ends; otherwise, go to the next step. [i]Proposed by Demetres Christofides, Cyprus[/i]
