Let $ p $ and $ q $ be given primes and the sequence $ \{ p_n \}_{n = 1}^{\infty} $ defined recursively as follows: $ p_1 = p $, $ p_2 = q $, and $ p_{n+2} $ is the largest prime divisor of the number $( p_n + p_{n + 1} + 2016) $ for all $ n \geq 1 $. Prove that this sequence is bounded. That is, there exists a positive real number $ M $ such that $ p_n < M $ for all positive integers $ n $.

Let $ n \geq 3 $ be an integer and let \begin{align*} x_1,x_2, \ldots, x_n \end{align*} be $ n $ distinct integers. Prove that \begin{align*} (x_1 - x_2)^2 + (x_2 - x_3)^2 + \ldots + (x_n - x_1)^2 \geq 4n - 6. \end{align*}
