Every of $n$ guests invited to a dinner has got an invitation denoted by a number from $1$ to $n$. The guests will be sitting around a round table with $n$ seats. The waiter has decided to derve them according to the following rule. At first, he selects one guest and serves him/her at any place. Thereafter, he selects the guests one by one: having chosen a guest, he goes around the table for the number of seats equal to the preceeding guest's invitation number (starting from the seat of the preceeding guest), and serves the guest there.
Find all $n$ for which he can select the guests in such an order to serve all the guests.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Consider $2n$ distinct lines on the plane, no two of which are parallel. Of the $2n$ lines, $n$ are colored blue, the other $n$ are colored red. Let $\mathcal{B}$ be the set of all points on the plane that lie on at least one blue line, and $\mathcal{R}$ the set of all points on the plane that lie on at least one red line. Prove that there exists a circle that intersects $\mathcal{B}$ in exactly $2n - 1$ points, and also intersects $\mathcal{R}$ in exactly $2n - 1$ points.

Let ( M , g ) be a Riemannian manifold. Extend the metric tensor g to the set of tangents TM with the following specification: if $a,b\in T_v TM \, (v\in T_p M)$, then $$\tilde g_v (a, b): = g_p (\dot {\alpha} (0), \dot {\beta} (0) ) + g_p (D _ {\alpha} X(0) , D_{\beta} Y(0) )$$ where $\alpha, \beta$ are curves in M such that $\alpha(0) = \beta(0) = p$. X and Y are vector fields along $\alpha,\beta$ respectively, with the condition $\dot X (0) = a,\dot Y(0) = b$. $D _{\alpha}$ and $D _{\beta}$ are the operators of the covariant derivative along the corresponding curves according to the Levi-Civita connection. Is the eigenfunction from the Riemannian manifold (M,g) to the Riemannian manifold $(TM, \tilde g)$ harmonic?

Let $m$ be a positive integer, and consider a $m\times m$ checkerboard consisting of unit squares. At the centre of some of these unit squares there is an ant. At time $0$, each ant starts moving with speed $1$ parallel to some edge of the checkerboard. When two ants moving in the opposite directions meet, they both turn $90^{\circ}$ clockwise and continue moving with speed $1$. When more than $2$ ants meet, or when two ants moving in perpendicular directions meet, the ants continue moving in the same direction as before they met. When an ant reaches one of the edges of the checkerboard, it falls off and will not re-appear.
Considering all possible starting positions, determine the latest possible moment at which the last ant falls off the checkerboard, or prove that such a moment does not necessarily exist.

Let [i]n[/i] $\ge$ 3 be an integer and let ([i]$p_1$[/i], [i]$p_2$[/i], [i]$p_3$[/i], $\dots$, [i]$p_n$[/i]) be a permutation of {1, 2, 3, $\dots$ [i]n[/i]}. For this permutation we say that [i]$p_t$[/i] is a [i]turning point[/i] if 2$\le$ [i]t[/i] $\le$ [i]n[/i]-1 and
