Let $a,b,c$ be positive reals. Prove that
\[ \frac{(a-b)(a-c)}{2a^2 + (b+c)^2} + \frac{(b-c)(b-a)}{2b^2 + (c+a)^2} + \frac{(c-a)(c-b)}{2c^2 + (a+b)^2} \geq 0. \]

Let $a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_n$ be a finite sequence of non negative integers, its subsequences are the sequences of the form $a_i,a_{i+1},\ldots,a_j$ with $1\le i\le j \le n$. Two subsequences are said to be equal if they have the same length and have the same terms, that is, two subsequences $a_i,a_{i+1},\ldots,a_j$ and $a_u,a_{u+1},\ldots a_v$ are equal iff $j-i=u-v$ and $a_{i+k}=a_{u+k}$ forall integers $k$ such that $0\le k\le j-1$. Finally, we say that a subsequence $a_i,a_{i+1},\ldots,a_j$ is palindromic if $a_{i+k}=a_{j-k}$ forall integers $k$ such that $0\le k \le j-i$
What is the greatest number of different palindromic subsequences that can a palindromic sequence of length $n$ contain?
Are there integers $k$ and $m$ for which

At a math contest there are $2n$ students participating. Each of them submits a problem to the jury, which thereafter gives each students one of the $2n$ problems submitted. One says that the contest is [i]fair[/i] is there are $n$ participants which receive their problems from the other $n$ participants.
Prove that the number of distributions of the problems in order to obtain a fair contest is a perfect square.
