Find all pairs of positive integers $(m,n)$ satisfying $2^m+21^n$ is a perfect square

Simply equation but hard

by giangtruong13, Apr 16, 2025, 3:29 PM

Find all integer pairs $(x,y)$ satisfy that: $$(x^2+y)(y^2+x)=(x-y)^3$$

Let \( a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n \) and \( b_1, b_2, \dots, b_n \) be nonzero real nu

Let \( a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n \) and \( b_1, b_2, \dots, b_n \) be nonzero real numbers satisfying
\[
a_1^2 b_1^2 (a_1 + b_1) + a_2^2 b_2^2 (a_2 + b_2) + \cdots + a_n^2 b_n^2 (a_n + b_n) \leq 7,
\]\[
\frac{1}{a_1} + \cdots + \frac{1}{a_n} = \frac{1}{4}, \quad \frac{1}{b_1} + \cdots + \frac{1}{b_n} = \frac{1}{3}.
\]Find the maximum value of
\[
a_1 b_1 + a_2 b_2 + \cdots + a_n b_n.

Hard Polynomial Problem

by MinhDucDangCHL2000, Apr 16, 2025, 2:44 PM

Let $P(x)$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients. Suppose there exist infinitely many integer pairs $(a,b)$ such that $P(a) + P(b) = 0$. Prove that the graph of $P(x)$ is symmetric about a point (i.e., it has a center of symmetry).

Let M be any point inside triangle ABC, and let G be the centroid of triangle ABC. Prove that:

\[
|MA|^2 + |MB|^2 + |MC|^2 = |GA|^2 + |GB|^2 + |GC|^2 + 3|MG|^2
\]

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

Numbers not power of 5

by Kayak, Jul 17, 2019, 12:28 PM

Show that there do not exist natural numbers $a_1, a_2, \dots, a_{2018}$ such that the numbers \[ (a_1)^{2018}+a_2, (a_2)^{2018}+a_3, \dots, (a_{2018})^{2018}+a_1 \]are all powers of $5$

Silly Sequences

by whatshisbucket, Jun 28, 2018, 7:11 AM

Consider infinite sequences $a_1,a_2,\dots$ of positive integers satisfying $a_1=1$ and $$a_n \mid a_k+a_{k+1}+\dots+a_{k+n-1}$$for all positive integers $k$ and $n.$ For a given positive integer $m,$ find the maximum possible value of $a_{2m}.$

IMO LongList 1985 CYP2 - System of Simultaneous Equations

by Amir Hossein, Sep 10, 2010, 10:57 PM

Solve the system of simultaneous equations
\[\sqrt x - \frac 1y - 2w + 3z = 1,\]\[x + \frac{1}{y^2} - 4w^2 - 9z^2 = 3,\]\[x \sqrt x - \frac{1}{y^3} - 8w^3 + 27z^3 = -5,\]\[x^2 + \frac{1}{y^4} - 16w^4 - 81z^4 = 15.\]

Fun with Math and Science!

  • WOAH I JUST CAME HERE, CSS IS CRAZY

    by HacheB2031, Apr 8, 2025, 5:05 AM

  • Thanks! I'm happy to hear that! How is the new CSS? If you don't like it, I can go back.

    by aoum, Apr 8, 2025, 12:42 AM

  • This is such a cool blog! Just a suggestion, but I feel like it would look a bit better if the entries were wider. They're really skinny right now, which makes the posts seem a lot longer.

    by Catcumber, Apr 4, 2025, 11:16 PM

  • The first few posts for April are out!

    by aoum, Apr 1, 2025, 11:51 PM

  • Sure! I understand that it would be quite a bit to take in.

    by aoum, Apr 1, 2025, 11:08 PM

  • No, but it is a lot to take in. Also, could you do the Gamma Function next?

  • Am I going too fast? Would you like me to slow down?

    by aoum, Mar 31, 2025, 11:34 PM

  • Seriously, how do you make these so fast???

    by HacheB2031, Mar 31, 2025, 6:45 AM

  • I am now able to make clickable images in my posts! :)

    by aoum, Mar 29, 2025, 10:42 PM

  • Am I doing enough? Are you all expecting more from me?

    by aoum, Mar 29, 2025, 12:31 AM

  • That's all right.

    by aoum, Mar 28, 2025, 10:46 PM

  • sorry i couldn't contribute, was working on my own blog and was sick, i'll try to contribute more
