Find all functions $f$ $N \rightarrow N$ such for any $a,b$:
$(a+b)|a^{f(b)} + b^{f(a)}$.

Turbo's en route to visit each cell of the board

by Lukaluce, Apr 14, 2025, 11:01 AM

Let $n > 1$ be an integer. In a configuration of an $n \times n$ board, each of the $n^2$ cells contains an arrow, either pointing up, down, left, or right. Given a starting configuration, Turbo the snail starts in one of the cells of the board and travels from cell to cell. In each move, Turbo moves one square unit in the direction indicated by the arrow in her cell (possibly leaving the board). After each move, the arrows in all of the cells rotate $90^{\circ}$ counterclockwise. We call a cell good if, starting from that cell, Turbo visits each cell of the board exactly once, without leaving the board, and returns to her initial cell at the end. Determine, in terms of $n$, the maximum number of good cells over all possible starting configurations.

sequence infinitely similar to central sequence

by InterLoop, Apr 13, 2025, 12:38 PM

An infinite increasing sequence $a_1 < a_2 < a_3 < \dots$ of positive integers is called central if for every positive integer $n$, the arithmetic mean of the first $a_n$ terms of the sequence is equal to $a_n$.

Show that there exists an infinite sequence $b_1$, $b_2$, $b_3$, $\dots$ of positive integers such that for every central sequence $a_1$, $a_2$, $a_3$, $\dots$, there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ with $a_n = b_n$.

one cyclic formed by two cyclic

by CrazyInMath, Apr 13, 2025, 12:38 PM

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle. Points $B, D, E$, and $C$ lie on a line in this order and satisfy $BD = DE = EC$. Let $M$ and $N$ be the midpoints of $AD$ and $AE$, respectively. Suppose triangle $ADE$ is acute, and let $H$ be its orthocentre. Points $P$ and $Q$ lie on lines $BM$ and $CN$, respectively, such that $D, H, M,$ and $P$ are concyclic and pairwise different, and $E, H, N,$ and $Q$ are concyclic and pairwise different. Prove that $P, Q, N,$ and $M$ are concyclic.

Prove that x1=x2=....=x2025

by Rohit-2006, Apr 9, 2025, 5:22 AM

The real numbers $x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_{2025}$ satisfy,
$$x_1+x_2=2\bar{x_1}, x_2+x_3=2\bar{x_2},\cdots, x_{2025}+x_1=2\bar{x_{2025}}$$Where {$\bar{x_1},\cdots,\bar{x_{2025}}$} is a permutation of $x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_{2025}$. Prove that $x_1=x_2=\cdots=x_{2025}$

Number Theory Chain!

by JetFire008, Apr 7, 2025, 7:14 AM

I will post a question and someone has to answer it. Then they have to post a question and someone else will answer it and so on. We can only post questions related to Number Theory and each problem should be more difficult than the previous. Let's start!

Question 1

Squares in an Octagon

by kred9, Apr 5, 2025, 11:50 PM

A regular octagon and all of its diagonals are drawn. Find, with proof, the number of squares that appear in the resulting diagram. (The side of each square must lie along one of the edges or diagonals of the octagon.)

all solutions of (p,n)

by Sayan, Feb 14, 2012, 3:56 PM

Determine all solutions $(p,n)$ of the equation
\[n^3=p^2-p-1\]
where $p$ is a prime number and $n$ is an integer

IMO 2011 Problem 4

by Amir Hossein, Jul 19, 2011, 11:54 AM

Let $n > 0$ be an integer. We are given a balance and $n$ weights of weight $2^0, 2^1, \cdots, 2^{n-1}$. We are to place each of the $n$ weights on the balance, one after another, in such a way that the right pan is never heavier than the left pan. At each step we choose one of the weights that has not yet been placed on the balance, and place it on either the left pan or the right pan, until all of the weights have been placed.
Determine the number of ways in which this can be done.

The oldest, shortest words — "yes" and "no" — are those which require the most thought.
