There are $32$ boxers in a tournament. Each boxer can fight no more often than once per day. It is known that the boxers are of different strength, and the stronger man always wins. Prove that a $15$ day tournament can be organised so as to determine their classification (put them in the order of strength). The schedule of fights for each day is fixed on the evening before and cannot be changed during the day. (A. Andjans, Riga)

Find the least positive integer, which may not be represented as ${2^a-2^b\over 2^c-2^d}$, where $a,\,b,\,c,\,d$ are positive integers.

According to the estimated number of participants who gave a correct solution, this was the hardest (!) problem from today's paper. So here is this great German killer - be warned! Given a circle k and three pairwisely distinct points A, B, C on this circle. Let h and g be the perpendiculars to the line BC at the points B and C. The perpendicular bisector of the segment AB meets the line h at a point F; the perpendicular bisector of the segment AC meets the line g at a point G. Prove that the product $BF\cdot CG$ is independent from the position of the point A, as long as the points B and C stay fixed. The actual problem behind the problem: Why on hell should the points B and C stay fixed? Darij

A polygon $\mathcal{P}$ is drawn on the $2\text{D}$ coordinate plane. Each side of $\mathcal{P}$ is either parallel to the $x$ axis or the $y$ axis (the vertices of $\mathcal{P}$ do not have to be lattice points). Given that the interior of $\mathcal{P}$ includes the interior of the circle $x^2+y^2=2022,$ find the minimum possible perimeter of $\mathcal{P}.$

Carl chooses a [i]functional expression[/i]* $E$ which is a finite nonempty string formed from a set $x_1, x_2, \dots$ of variables and applications of a function $f$, together with addition, subtraction, multiplication (but not division), and fixed real constants. He then considers the equation $E = 0$, and lets $S$ denote the set of functions $f \colon \mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ such that the equation holds for any choices of real numbers $x_1, x_2, \dots$. (For example, if Carl chooses the functional equation $$ f(2f(x_1)+x_2) - 2f(x_1)-x_2 = 0, $$ then $S$ consists of one function, the identity function. (a) Let $X$ denote the set of functions with domain $\mathbb R$ and image exactly $\mathbb Z$. Show that Carl can choose his functional equation such that $S$ is nonempty but $S \subseteq X$. (b) Can Carl choose his functional equation such that $|S|=1$ and $S \subseteq X$? *These can be defined formally in the following way: the set of functional expressions is the minimal one (by inclusion) such that (i) any fixed real constant is a functional expression, (ii) for any positive integer $i$, the variable $x_i$ is a functional expression, and (iii) if $V$ and $W$ are functional expressions, then so are $f(V)$, $V+W$, $V-W$, and $V \cdot W$.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. We are given a $3n \times 3n$ board whose unit squares are colored in black and white in such way that starting with the top left square, every third diagonal is colored in black and the rest of the board is in white. In one move, one can take a $2 \times 2$ square and change the color of all its squares in such way that white squares become orange, orange ones become black and black ones become white. Find all $n$ for which, using a finite number of moves, we can make all the squares which were initially black white, and all squares which were initially white black.
