We have $p$ players participating in a tournament, each player playing against every other player exactly once. A point is scored for each victory, and there are no draws. A sequence of nonnegative integers $s_1 \le s_2 \le s_3 \le\cdots\le s_p$ is given. Show that it is possible for this sequence to be a set of final scores of the players in the tournament if and only if \[(i)\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{p} s_i =\frac{1}{2}p(p-1)\] \[\text{and}\] \[(ii)\text{ for all }k < p,\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{k} s_i \ge \frac{1}{2} k(k - 1).\]

In Mexico City, in order to limit traffic flow, for each private car is given one day a week on which it cannot go on the city streets. A wealthy family of 10 bribed the police, and for each car they are given 2 days, one of which the police chooses as a ''no travel'' day. What is the smallest number of cars a family needs to buy so that each family member can drive independently every day, if the approval of “no travel” days for cars occurs sequentially? [hide=original wording]В городе Мехико в целях ограничения транспортного потока для каждой частной автомашины устанавливаются один деньв неделю, в который она не может выезжать на улицы города. Состоятельная семья из 10 человек подкупила полицию, и для каждой машины они называют 2 дня, один из которых полиция выбирает в качестве ''невыездного'' дня. Какое наименьшее количество машин нужно купить семье, чтобы каждый день каждый член семьи мог самостоятельно ездить, если утверждение ''невыездных'' дней для автомобилей идет последовательно?[/hide]

It is well-known that the $n^{\text{th}}$ triangular number can be given by the formula $n(n+1)/2$. A Pythagorean triple of $\textit{square numbers}$ is an ordered triple $(a,b,c)$ such that $a^2+b^2=c^2$. Let a Pythagorean triple of $\textit{triangular numbers}$ (a PTTN) be an ordered triple of positive integers $(a,b,c)$ such that $a\leq b<c$ and \[\dfrac{a(a+1)}2+\dfrac{b(b+1)}2=\dfrac{c(c+1)}2.\] For instance, $(3,5,6)$ is a PTTN ($6+15=21$). Here we call both $a$ and $b$ $\textit{legs}$ of the PTTN. Find the smallest natural number $n$ such that $n$ is a leg of $\textit{at least}$ six distinct PTTNs.
