Find the smallest $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}$ such that for all $n \in \mathbb{N}_+$, there exists $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n$ satisfying $n = x_1 x_2 \ldots x_{2023}$, where $x_i$ is either a prime or a positive integer not exceeding $n^\lambda$ for all $i \in \left\{ 1,2, \ldots, 2023 \right\}$.

In a triangle $ABC$, the excircle $\omega_a$ opposite $A$ touches $AB$ at $P$ and $AC$ at $Q$, while the excircle $\omega_b$ opposite $B$ touches $BA$ at $M$ and $BC$ at $N$. Let $K$ be the projection of $C$ onto $MN$ and let $L$ be the projection of $C$ onto $PQ$. Show that the quadrilateral $MKLP$ is cyclic. ([i]Bulgaria[/i])
On side, $BC, AB$ of a parallelogram $ABCD$ lie points $M,N$ respectively such that $|AM| =|CN|$. Let $P$ be the intersection of $AM$ and $CN$. Prove that the angle bisector of $\angle APC$ passes through $D$.
A chocolate bar has five lengthwise dents and eight crosswise ones, which can be used to break up the bar into sections (one can get a total of $ 9 \times 6 = 54$ cells). Two players play the following game with such a bar. At each move (the two players move alternatively) one player breaks off a section of width one from the bar along a single dent and eats it, the other player does the same with what’s left of the bar, and so on. When one of the players breaks up a section of width two into two strips of width one, he eats one of the strips and the other player eats the other strip. Prove that the player who has the first move can play so as to eat at least $6$ cells more than his opponent (no matter how his opponent plays). (R Fedorov)
Given is a quadrilateral $ABCD$ in which we can inscribe circle. The segments $AB, BC, CD$ and $DA$ are the diameters of the circles $o1, o2, o3$ and $o4$, respectively. Prove that there exists a circle tangent to all of the circles $o1, o2, o3$ and $o4$.

(a) Prove that if $n$ is a integer such that $n \geq 4011^2$ then there exists an integer $l$ such that \[ n < l^2 < (1 + \frac{1}{{2005}})n . \] (b) Find the smallest positive integer $M$ for which whenever an integer $n$ is such that $n \geq M$ then there exists an integer $l$ such that \[ n < l^2 < (1 + \frac{1}{{2005}})n . \]

Let $ABCD$ be a square, and let $E$ and $F$ be points on $\overline{AB}$ and $\overline{BC}$, respectively. The line through $E$ parallel to $\overline{BC}$ and the line through $F$ parallel to $\overline{AB}$ divide $ABCD$ into two squares and two non square rectangles.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle such that it's circumcircle radius is equal to the radius of outer inscribed circle with respect to $A$. Suppose that the outer inscribed circle with respect to $A$ touches $BC,AC,AB$ at $M,N,L$. Prove that $O$ (Center of circumcircle) is the orthocenter of $MNL$.
A quarry wants to sell a large pile of gravel. At full price, the gravel would sell for $3200$ dollars. But during the first week the quarry only sells $60\%$ of the gravel at full price. The following week the quarry drops the price by $10\%$, and, again, it sells $60\%$ of the remaining gravel. Each week, thereafter, the quarry reduces the price by another $10\%$ and sells $60\%$ of the remaining gravel. This continues until there is only a handful of gravel left. How many dollars does the quarry collect for the sale of all its gravel?

There are $9$ visually indistinguishable coins, and one of them is fake and thus lighter.

Show that the fake coin can still be found with $4$ weighings.
