Spaces are still available - don’t miss your chance to have an enriching summer experience. There are middle and high school competition math camps as well as Math Beasts camps that review key topics coupled with fun explorations covering areas such as graph theory (Math Beasts Camp 6), cryptography (Math Beasts Camp 7-8), and topology (Math Beasts Camp 8-9)!

Be sure to mark your calendars for the following upcoming events:

Something weird with this one FE in integers (probably challenging, maybe not)
Gaunter_O_Dim_of_math   1
N 12 minutes ago by Rayanelba
Source: Pang-Cheng-Wu, FE, problem number 52.
During FE problems' solving I found a very specific one:

Find all such f that f: Z -> Z and for all integers a, b, c
f(a^3 + b^3 + c^3) = f(a)^3 + f(b)^3 + f(c)^3.

Everything what I've got is that f is odd, f(n) = n or -n or 0
for all n from 0 to 11 (just bash it), but it is very simple and do not give the main idea.
I actually have spent not so much time on this problem, but definitely have no clue. As far as I see, number theory here or classical FE solving or advanced methods, which I know, do not work at all.
Is here a normal solution (I mean, without bashing and something with a huge number of ugly and weird inequalities)?
Or this is kind of rubbish, which was put just for bash?

Source: Macedonian Mathematical Olympiad 2025 Problem 2
Let \( n > 2 \) be an integer, \( k > 1 \) a real number, and \( x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n \) be positive real numbers such that \( x_1 \cdot x_2 \cdots x_n = 1 \). Prove that:

\[
\frac{1 + x_1^k}{1 + x_2} + \frac{1 + x_2^k}{1 + x_3} + \cdots + \frac{1 + x_n^k}{1 + x_1} \geq n.
\]
When does equality hold?

I should have created this topic long ago.

Olympiad Archive (AoPS Wiki)

Since adding links to the tables in the Wiki page might not be easy for everyone, you can post the link and the description of the contest that you want to be added under this topic (you don't need to create the whole list again; just paste your link here and I'll take care of it). I will update the page once in a while to add the new links/fix the broken ones.


I have also created a Dropbox folder for this purpose. If you have the problems of olympiads of some countries (except the ones that are already present on AoPS Contests page) and want to share it with us, please
[list]
[*] Compress all your files into one ZIP/RAR/7z file.
[*] Rename the file in the following format:
[center][Country]_[Competition Name]_[Competition Years]_[With/Without Solutions]_[Language][/center]
[*] For instance, if you want to upload the problems (but not solutions) of the second round national olympiad of Iran between the years 2010 to 2017 and in Farsi, the name of the file that you upload must be:
[center]Iran_Second Round_2010-2017_Without Solutions_Farsi[/center]
[/list]

Dropbox links: to upload files in the Dropbox folder, use this link and to view the uploaded files, use this link.

Thank you!

EDIT. Updated. I will create the Wiki page as soon as we get 50 competitions in the list.

There is an extra / at last. That usually is checkable manually because we use that at last when navigating to a webpage of the website.

I actually did. Please compress all the files you have into one ZIP/RAR file, rename it in the format I explained in the first post, and then upload it here.

Yes! That would be excellent. In fact, I created this topic for the people who don't have time to post all the problems in AoPS so that they can share the links to problems/upload them. This way, other people can add the problems to the contests section.

You had an extra www in the beginning of the link, which resulted in the error.
