Consider a $N\times N$ square board where $N\geq 3$ is an odd integer. The caterpillar Carl sits at the center of the square; all other cells contain distinct positive integers. An integer $n$ weights $1\slash n$ kilograms. Carl wants to leave the board but can eat at most $2$ kilograms. Determine whether Carl can always find a way out when a) $N=2003.$ b) $N$ is an arbitrary odd integer.

a) Do there exist four equilateral triangles in the plane such that each two have exactly one vertex in common, and every point in the plane lies on the boundary of at most two of them? b) Do there exist four squares in the plane such that each two have exactly one vertex in common, and every point in the plane lies on the boundary of at most two of them? (Note that in both parts, there is no assumption on the intersection of interior of polygons.) [i]Proposed by Hesam Rajabzadeh[/i]
