Given an integer ${n>1}$, denote by $P_{n}$ the product of all positive integers $x$ less than $n$ and such that $n$ divides ${x^2-1}$. For each ${n>1}$, find the remainder of $P_{n}$ on division by $n$. [i]Proposed by John Murray, Ireland[/i]
Let $k$ be a positive integer and $r_n$ be the remainder when ${2 n} \choose {n}$ is divided by $k$. Find all $k$ for which the sequence $(r_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is eventually periodic.
Let $K$ be the number of sequences $A_1$, $A_2$, $\dots$, $A_n$ such that $n$ is a positive integer less than or equal to $10$, each $A_i$ is a subset of $\{1, 2, 3, \dots, 10\}$, and $A_{i-1}$ is a subset of $A_i$ for each $i$ between $2$ and $n$, inclusive. For example, $\{\}$, $\{5, 7\}$, $\{2, 5, 7\}$, $\{2, 5, 7\}$, $\{2, 5, 6, 7, 9\}$ is one such sequence, with $n = 5$.

Determine whether it is possible to place the integers $1, 2,...,2012$ in a circle in such a way that the $2012$ products of adjacent pairs of numbers leave pairwise distinct remainders when divided by $2013$.
We say that a permutation $(a_1, \dots, a_n)$ of $(1, 2, \dots, n)$ is good if the sums $a_1 + a_2 + \dots + a_i$ are all distinct modulo $n$. Prove that there exists a positive integer $n$ such that there are at least $2020$ good permutations of $(1, 2, \dots, n)$. [i]Proposed by Ariel García[/i]
Let $a, b$ be two co-prime positive integers. A number is called [i]good [/i] if it can be written in the form $ax + by$ for non-negative integers $x, y$.
