There exist $4$ positive integers $a,b,c,d$ such that $abcd \neq 1$ and each pair of them have a GCD of $1$. Two functions $f,g : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \{0,1\}$ are multiplicative functions such that for each positive integer $n$ we have :
$$f(an+b)=g(cn+d)$$
Prove that at least one of the followings hold.
$i)$ for each positive integer $n$ we have $f(an+b)=g(cn+d)=0$
$ii)$ There exists a positive integer $k$ such that for all $n$ where $(n,k)=1$ we have $g(n)=f(n)=1$
(Function $f$ is multiplicative if for any natural numbers $a,b$ we have $f(ab)=f(a)f(b)$)

Tina and Paul are playing a game on a square $S$. First, Tina selects a point $T$ inside $S$. Next, Paul selects a point $P$ inside $S$. Paul then colors blue all the points inside $S$ that are closer to $P$ than $T$ . Tina wins if the blue region thus produced is the interior of a triangle. Assuming that Paul is lazy and simply selects his point at random (and that Tina knows this), find, with proof, a point Tina can select to maximize her probability of winning, and compute this probability.

Consider a triple $(a, b, c)$ of pairwise distinct positive integers satisfying $a + b + c = 2013$. A step consists of replacing the triple $(x, y, z)$ by the triple $(y + z - x,z + x - y,x + y - z)$. Prove that, starting from the given triple $(a, b,c)$, after $10$ steps we obtain a triple containing at least one negative number.
