In a triangle $ABC$ with $\angle B<\angle C$, denote its incenter and midpoint of $BC$ by $I$, $M$, respectively. Let $C'$ be the reflected point of $C$ wrt $AI$. Let the lines $MC'$ and $CI$ meet at $X$. Suppose that $\angle XAI=\angle XBI=90^{\circ}$. Prove that $\angle C=2\angle B$.

Let $M$ be the midpoint of side $BC$ in $\triangle ABC$, and $P \neq B$ is such that the quadrilateral $ABMP$ is cyclic and the circumcircle of $\triangle BPC$ is tangent to the line $AB$. If $E$ is the second common point of the line $BP$ and the circumcircle of $\triangle ABC$, determine the ratio $BE: BP$.

Let triangle $ABC$ be triangle with orthocenter $H$ and circumcircle $O$. A point $X$ lies on line $BC$. $AH$ intersects the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ again at $H'$. $AX$ intersects circumcircle of triangle $H'HX$ again at $Y$ and intersects circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ again at $Z$. Let $G$ be the intersection of $BC$ with $H'O$. Let $P$ lies on $AB$ such that $PH'A = 90^\circ - \angle BAC$. Prove that
1. the ratio and the angle between $YH$ and $ZG$ do not depend on the choices of $X$.
2. $\angle PYH = \angle BZG$.

A function $f$ from the positive integers to the positive integers is called Canadian if it satisfies $$\gcd\left(f(f(x)), f(x+y)\right)=\gcd(x, y)$$for all pairs of positive integers $x$ and $y$.

Find all positive integers $m$ such that $f(m)=m$ for all Canadian functions $f$.

Bushy and Jumpy and the unhappy walnut reordering

N 2 hours ago by lksb
Source: IMO 2021 P5
Two squirrels, Bushy and Jumpy, have collected 2021 walnuts for the winter. Jumpy numbers the walnuts from 1 through 2021, and digs 2021 little holes in a circular pattern in the ground around their favourite tree. The next morning Jumpy notices that Bushy had placed one walnut into each hole, but had paid no attention to the numbering. Unhappy, Jumpy decides to reorder the walnuts by performing a sequence of 2021 moves. In the $k$-th move, Jumpy swaps the positions of the two walnuts adjacent to walnut $k$.

Prove that there exists a value of $k$ such that, on the $k$-th move, Jumpy swaps some walnuts $a$ and $b$ such that $a<k<b$.

Interesting combinatoric problem on rectangles

Source: Own
Define act <Castle> as following:
For rectangle with dimensions i * j, doing <Castle> means to change its dimensions to (i+p) * (j+q) where p,q is a natural number smaller than 3.

Define 1*1 rectangle as "C0" rectangle, and define "Cn" ("n" is a natural number) as a rectangle that can be created with "n" <Castle>s.
Plus, there is a constraint for "Cn" rectangle. The constraint is that "Cn" rectangle's area must be bigger than n^2 and be same or smaller than (n+1)^2. (n^2 < Area =< (n+1)^2)

Let all "C20" rectangle's area's sum be A, and let all "C20" rectangles perimeter's sum be B.
What is A-B?
