Kolya and Dima play a game on an $8\times 8$ board, making moves in turn. During his turn, Kolya must put one cross in any empty cell (i.e., in a cell in which a cross has not yet been drawn and which has not yet been covered with a domino). Dima must cover two adjacent cells with a domino (which are not yet covered with other dominoes), in which there are an even number of crosses in total (0 or 2). The one who can't make a move loses. Which of does the player have a winning strategy, if [list=a] [*]Dima makes the first move? [*]Kolya makes the first move? [/list] [i]Proposed by M. Didin[/i]

Let $ A_0 \equal{} (a_1,\dots,a_n)$ be a finite sequence of real numbers. For each $ k\geq 0$, from the sequence $ A_k \equal{} (x_1,\dots,x_k)$ we construct a new sequence $ A_{k \plus{} 1}$ in the following way. 1. We choose a partition $ \{1,\dots,n\} \equal{} I\cup J$, where $ I$ and $ J$ are two disjoint sets, such that the expression \[ \left|\sum_{i\in I}x_i \minus{} \sum_{j\in J}x_j\right| \] attains the smallest value. (We allow $ I$ or $ J$ to be empty; in this case the corresponding sum is 0.) If there are several such partitions, one is chosen arbitrarily. 2. We set $ A_{k \plus{} 1} \equal{} (y_1,\dots,y_n)$ where $ y_i \equal{} x_i \plus{} 1$ if $ i\in I$, and $ y_i \equal{} x_i \minus{} 1$ if $ i\in J$. Prove that for some $ k$, the sequence $ A_k$ contains an element $ x$ such that $ |x|\geq\frac n2$. [i]Author: Omid Hatami, Iran[/i]

Find all real-valued functions $f$ defined on pairs of real numbers, having the following property: for all real numbers $a, b, c$, the median of $f(a,b), f(b,c), f(c,a)$ equals the median of $a, b, c$. (The [i]median[/i] of three real numbers, not necessarily distinct, is the number that is in the middle when the three numbers are arranged in nondecreasing order.)

Each of the squares on a $15$×$15$ board has a zero. At every step you choose a row or a column, we delete all the numbers from it and then we write the numbers from $1$ to $15$ in the empty cells, in an arbitrary order. find the sum possible maximum of the numbers on the board that can be achieved after a number finite number of steps.

Let $ABC$ be an equilateral triangle with side 3. A circle $C_1$ is tangent to $AB$ and $AC$. A circle $C_2$, with a radius smaller than the radius of $C_1$, is tangent to $AB$ and $AC$ as well as externally tangent to $C_1$. Successively, for $n$ positive integer, the circle $C_{n+1}$, with a radius smaller than the radius of $C_n$, is tangent to $AB$ and $AC$ and is externally tangent to $C_n$. Determine the possible values for the radius of $C_1$ such that 4 circles from this sequence, but not 5, are contained on the interior of the triangle $ABC$.

Find the sides of the initial trapezoid.

$N$ oligarchs built a country with $N$ cities with each one of them owning one city. In addition, each oligarch built some roads such that the maximal amount of roads an oligarch can build between two cities is $1$ (note that there can be more than $1$ road going through two cities, but they would belong to different oligarchs). A total of $d$ roads were built. Some oligarchs wanted to create a corporation by combining their cities and roads so that from any city of the corporation you can go to any city of the corporation using only corporation roads (roads can go to other cities outside corporation) but it turned out that no group of less than $N$ oligarchs can create a corporation. What is the maximal amount that $d$ can have?
