Which of the following claims are true, and which of them are false? If a fact is true you should prove it, if it isn't, find a counterexample. a) Let $a,b,c$ be real numbers such that $ a^{2013} + b^{2013} + c^{2013} = 0 $. Then $ a^{2014} + b^{2014} + c^{2014} = 0 $. b) Let $a,b,c$ be real numbers such that $ a^{2014} + b^{2014} + c^{2014} = 0 $. Then $ a^{2015} + b^{2015} + c^{2015} = 0 $. c) Let $a,b,c$ be real numbers such that $ a^{2013} + b^{2013} + c^{2013} = 0 $ and $ a^{2015} + b^{2015} + c^{2015} = 0 $. Then $ a^{2014} + b^{2014} + c^{2014} = 0 $. [i]Proposed by Matko Ljulj[/i]
Integers $1 \le n \le 200$ are written on a blackboard just one by one. We surrounded just $100$ integers with circle. We call a square of the sum of surrounded integers minus the sum of not surrounded integers $score$ of this situation. Calculate the average score in all ways.

There are seven piles with $2014$ pebbles each and a pile with $2008$ pebbles. Ana and Beto play in turns and Ana always plays first. One move consists of removing pebbles from all the piles. From each pile is removed a different amount of pebbles, between $1$ and $8$ pebbles. The first player who cannot make a move loses. a) Who has a winning strategy? b) If there were seven piles with $2015$ pebbles each and a pile with $2008$ pebbles, who has a winning strategy?
There are $90$ cards and two different digits are written on each one: $01$, $02$, $03$, $04$, $05$, $06$, $07$, $08$, $09$, $10$, $12$, and so on up to $98$. A set of cards is [i]correct [/i]if it does not contain any cards whose first digit is the same as the second digit of another card in the set. We call the [i]value [/i]of a set of cards the sum of the numbers written on each card. For example, the four cards $04$, $35$, $78$ and $98$ form a correct set and their value is $215$, since$ 04+35+78+98=215$. Find a correct set that has the largest possible value. Explain why it is impossible to achieve a correct set of higher value.

How many [i]lit[/i] functions $g$ are there such that for all integers $x$, $p$ divides $g(x^2)-g(x)-x^8+x$? [i]Proposed by Monkey_king1[/i]
