a) We are given $n$ circles $O_1, O_2, . . . , O_n$, passing through one point $O$. Let $A_1, . . . , A_n$ denote the second intersection points of $O_1$ with $O_2, O_2$ with $O_3$, etc., $O_n$ with $O_1$, respectively. We choose an arbitrary point $B_1$ on $O_1$ and draw a line segment through $A_1$ and $B_1$ to the second intersection with $O_2$ at $B_2$, then draw a line segment through $A_2$ and $B_2$ to the second intersection with $O_3$ at $B_3$, etc., until we get a point $B_n$ on $O_n$. We draw the line segment through $B_n$ and $A_n$ to the second intersection with $O_1$ at $B_{n+1}$. If $B_k$ and $A_k$ coincide for some $k$, we draw the tangent to $O_k$ through $A_k$ until this tangent intersects $O_{k+1}$ at $B_{k+1}$. Prove that $B_{n+1}$ coincides with $B_1$. b) for $n=3$ the same problem.
A certain island has some ports along the coast and some towns inland. All roads on this island are one-way, and they do not meet except at a port or a town. Moreover, once you leave a certain port or town by road, there is no way you can return there by road. For any two ports $i$ and $j$, let $f_{ij}$ denote the number of different routes along the roads between $i$ and $j$. (a) Suppose there are four ports on the island: $1, 2, 3$ and $4$, in clockwise order. Show that $$f_{14}f_{23} \ge f_{13}f_{24}$$ (b) Suppose there were six ports on the island: $1, 2, 3, 4, 5$ and $6$, in clockwise order. Show that $$f_{16}f_{25}f_{34} + f_{15}f_{24}f_{36} + f_{14}f_{26}f_{35}\ge f_{16}f_{24}f_{35}+ f_{15}f_{26}f_{34} + f_{14}f_{25}f_{36}$$ (S Fomin}
