Suppose that $f : \mathbb R^+ \to \mathbb R^+$ is a decreasing function such that \[f(x+y)+f(f(x)+f(y))=f(f(x+f(y))+f(y+f(x)), \quad \forall x,y \in \mathbb R^+.\] Prove that $f(x) = f^{-1}(x).$

Prove that for any finite graph G there is a constant c(G)>0 such that for every n-point graph that does not have an induced subgraph isomorphic to G, there are two disjoint sets of vertices, each with at least $n^{c(G)}$ elements, between which either all edges are connected, or none of the edges are.

Let $A$ be a point outside the circle $\omega$. Two points $B, C$ lie on $\omega$ such that $AB, AC$ are tangent to $\omega$. Let $D$ be any point on $\omega$ ($D$ is neither $B$ nor $C$) and $M$ the foot of perpendicular from $B$ to $CD$. The line through $D$ and the midpoint of $BM$ meets $\omega$ again at $P$. Prove that $AP \perp CP$

A grasshopper is sitting at an integer point in the Euclidean plane. Each second it jumps to another integer point in such a way that the jump vector is constant. A hunter that knows neither the starting point of the grasshopper nor the jump vector (but knows that the jump vector for each second is constant) wants to catch the grasshopper. Each second the hunter can choose one integer point in the plane and, if the grasshopper is there, he catches it. Can the hunter always catch the grasshopper in a finite amount of time?

Stoyan and Nikolai have two $100\times 100$ chess boards. Both of them number each cell with the numbers $1$ to $10000$ in some way. Is it possible that for every two numbers $a$ and $b$, which share a common side in Nikolai's board, these two numbers are at a knight's move distance in Stoyan's board (that is, a knight can move from one of the cells to the other one with a move)?

Ali has $100$ cards with numbers $1,2,\ldots,100$. Ali and Amin play a game together. In each step, first Ali chooses a card from the remaining cards and Amin decides to pick that card for himself or throw it away. In the case that he picks the card, he can't pick the next card chosen by Amin, and he has to throw it away. This action repeats until when there is no remaining card for Ali. Amin wants to pick cards in a way that the sum of the number of his cards is maximized and Ali wants to choose cards in a way that the sum of the number of Amin's cards is minimized. Find the most value of $k$ such that Amin can play in a way that is sure the sum of the number of his cards will be at least equal to $k$.

Seven different positive integers are written on a sheet of paper. The result of the multiplication of the seven numbers is the cube of a whole number. If the largest of the numbers written on the sheet is $N$, determine the smallest possible value of $N$. Show an example for that value of $N$ and explain why $N$ cannot be smaller.
