Joaquim, José and João participate of the worship of triangle $ABC$. It is well known that $ABC$ is a random triangle, nothing special. According to the dogmas of the worship, when they form a triangle which is similar to $ABC$, they will get immortal. Nevertheless, there is a condition: each person must represent a vertice of the triangle. In this case, Joaquim will represent vertice $A$, José vertice $B$ and João will represent vertice $C$. Thus, they must form a triangle which is similar to $ABC$, in this order. Suppose all three points are in the Euclidean Plane. Once they are very excited to become immortal, they act in the following way: in each instant $t$, Joaquim, for example, will move with constant velocity $v$ to the point in the same semi-plan determined by the line which connects the other two points, and which would create a triangle similar to $ABC$ in the desired order. The other participants act in the same way. If the velocity of all of them is same, and if they initially have a finite, but sufficiently large life, determine if they can get immortal. [i]Observation: Initially, Joaquim, José and João do not represent three collinear points in the plane[/i]

Given a natural number $n\geqslant 2$, find the smallest possible number of edges in a graph that has the following property: for any coloring of the vertices of the graph in $n{}$ colors, there is a vertex that has at least two neighbors of the same color as itself.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. $S$ is a set of points such that the points in $S$ are arranged in a regular $2016$-simplex grid, with an edge of the simplex having $n$ points in $S$. (For example, the $2$-dimensional analog would have $\dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}$ points arranged in an equilateral triangle grid). Each point in $S$ is labeled with a real number such that the following conditions hold: (a) Not all the points in $S$ are labeled with $0$. (b) If $\ell$ is a line that is parallel to an edge of the simplex and that passes through at least one point in $S$, then the labels of all the points in $S$ that are on $\ell$ add to $0$. (c) The labels of the points in $S$ are symmetric along any such line $\ell$. Find the smallest positive integer $n$ such that this is possible. Note: A regular $2016$-simplex has $2017$ vertices in $2016$-dimensional space such that the distances between every pair of vertices are equal. [i]Proposed by James Lin[/i]
