A function $f:\mathbb N\to\mathbb N$, where $\mathbb N$ is the set of positive integers, satisfies the following condition: for any positive integers $m$ and $n$ ($m>n$) the number $f(m)-f(n)$ is divisible by $m-n$. Is the function $f$ necessarily a polynomial? (In other words, is it true that for any such function there exists a polynomial $p(x)$ with real coefficients such that $f(n)=p(n)$ for all positive integers $n$?) [i](Folklore)[/i]

2012 Balkan MO, 3

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Let $P_n=\{2^n,2^{n-1}\cdot 3, 2^{n-2}\cdot 3^2, \dots, 3^n \}.$ For each subset $X$ of $P_n$, we write $S_X$ for the sum of all elements of $X$, with the convention that $S_{\emptyset}=0$ where $\emptyset$ is the empty set. Suppose that $y$ is a real number with $0 \leq y \leq 3^{n+1}-2^{n+1}.$ Prove that there is a subset $Y$ of $P_n$ such that $0 \leq y-S_Y < 2^n$

The infinite sequence $a_0,a _1, a_2, \dots$ of (not necessarily distinct) integers has the following properties: $0\le a_i \le i$ for all integers $i\ge 0$, and \[\binom{k}{a_0} + \binom{k}{a_1} + \dots + \binom{k}{a_k} = 2^k\] for all integers $k\ge 0$. Prove that all integers $N\ge 0$ occur in the sequence (that is, for all $N\ge 0$, there exists $i\ge 0$ with $a_i=N$).

Let $n$ be a positive integer. We start with $n$ piles of pebbles, each initially containing a single pebble. One can perform moves of the following form: choose two piles, take an equal number of pebbles from each pile and form a new pile out of these pebbles. Find (in terms of $n$) the smallest number of nonempty piles that one can obtain by performing a finite sequence of moves of this form.

2024 Singapore MO Open, Q4

Alice and Bob play a game. Bob starts by picking a set $S$ consisting of $M$ vectors of length $n$ with entries either $0$ or $1$. Alice picks a sequence of numbers $y_1\le y_2\le\dots\le y_n$ from the interval $[0,1]$, and a choice of real numbers $x_1,x_2\dots,x_n\in \mathbb{R}$. Bob wins if he can pick a vector $(z_1,z_2,\dots,z_n)\in S$ such that $$\sum_{i=1}^n x_iy_i\le \sum_{i=1}^n x_iz_i,$$otherwise Alice wins. Determine the minimum value of $M$ so that Bob can guarantee a win. [i]Proposed by DVDthe1st[/i]

Let the two base angles of a triangle be $A$ and $B$, with $B$ larger than $A$. The altitude to the base divides the vertex angle $C$ into two parts, $C_1$ and $C_2$, with $C_2$ adjacent to side $a$.
