Show (or deny) that there exists an absolute constant
that, for all

positive real numbers
, there is

For an
table filled with natural numbers, we say it is a divisor table if:
- the numbers in the
-th row are exactly all the divisors of some natural number
,
- the numbers in the
-th column are exactly all the divisors of some natural number
,
-
for every
.
A prime number
is given. Determine the smallest natural number
, divisible by
, such that there exists an
divisor table, or prove that such
does not exist.

2- player game on a strip of n squares with two game pieces
by parmenides51, Mar 26, 2024, 3:48 PM
Alice and Bob play a game on a strip of
squares with two game pieces. At the beginning, Alice’s piece is on the first square while Bob’s piece is on the last square. The figure shows the starting position for a strip of
squares.

The players alternate. In each move, they advance their own game piece by one or two squares in the direction of the opponent’s piece. The piece has to land on an empty square without jumping over the opponent’s piece. Alice makes the first move with her own piece. If a player cannot move, they lose.
For which
can Bob ensure a win no matter how Alice plays?
