Initially, $10$ ones are written on a blackboard. Grisha and Gleb are playing game, by taking turns; Grisha goes first. On one move Grisha squares some $5$ numbers on the board. On his move, Gleb picks a few (perhaps none) numbers on the board and increases each of them by $1$. If in $10,000$ moves on the board a number divisible by $2023$ appears, Gleb wins, otherwise Grisha wins. Which of the players has a winning strategy?

Let $S$ be a nonempty subset of the points in the Cartesian plane such that for each $x\in S$ exactly one of $x+(0,1)$ or $x+(1,0)$ also belongs to $S$. Prove that for each positive integer $k$ there is a line in the plane (possibly different lines for different $k$) which contains at least $k$ points of $S$.

Show that there does not exist a function \( f : \mathbb{R}^+ \to \mathbb{R}^+ \) such that for all positive real numbers \( x, y \),
\[
f^2(x) \geq f(x+y)\left(f(x) + y\right).

The $n$ players of a hockey team gather to select their team captain. Initially, they stand in a circle, and each person votes for the person on their left.

The players will update their votes via a series of rounds. In one round, each player $a$ updates their vote, one at a time, according to the following procedure: At the time of the update, if $a$ is voting for $b,$ and $b$ is voting for $c,$ then $a$ updates their vote to $c.$ (Note that $a, b,$ and $c$ need not be distinct; if $b=c$ then $a$'s vote does not change for this update.) Every player updates their vote exactly once in each round, in an order determined by the players (possibly different across different rounds).

They repeat this updating procedure for $n$ rounds. Prove that at this time, all $n$ players will unanimously vote for the same person.

Four points $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$ lie on a semicircle $\omega$ in this order with diameter $AD$, and $AD$ is not parallel to $BC$. Points $X$ and $Y$ lie on segments $AC$ and $BD$ respectively such that $BX\parallel AD$ and $CY\perp AD$. A circle $\Gamma$ passes through $D$ and $Y$ is tangent to $AD$, and intersects $\omega$ again at $Z\neq D$. Prove that the lines $AZ$, $BC$ and $XY$ are concurrent.

Solve the system of equations:
$$\begin{cases}\sqrt{\frac{y(t-y)}{t-x}-\frac4x}+\sqrt{\frac{z(t-z)}{t-x}-\frac4x}=\sqrt x\\\sqrt{\frac{z(t-z)}{t-y}-\frac4y}+\sqrt{\frac{x(t-x)}{t-y}-\frac4y}=\sqrt y\\\sqrt{\frac{x(t-x)}{t-z}-\frac4z}+\sqrt{\frac{y(t-y)}{t-z}-\frac4z}=\sqrt z\\x+y+z=2t\end{cases}$$if the following conditions are satisfied: $0<x<t$, $0<y<t$, $0<z<t$.
