You call a number gregorian if a number n and all posible digit subsequences of n divide n. For example 48 is gregorian because 4 and 8 divde it. 312 is not a gregorian number because 31 doesn't divide it. Find ALL gregorian numbers.

Private Forum for Geometry Study
fossasor   256
Hi all,

I've recently been trying to improve my skill at competition math, but I consistently struggle with geometry. Since doing math is more fun and motivating with others, I've created the GeoPrepClub. This is a private forum to increase geometry skill and help others increase theirs: we'll have problems, marathons, and much more. This is similar to forums such as "AMC8 Prep Buddies" by PatTheKing, but is focused exclusively on this subject. We welcome all skill levels and hope those with greater mathematical knowledge can assist those lacking in it.

If this sounds interesting to you, sing up below and I'll let you know once I've added you. Although the forum may not have much now, that's because I've only just released it, and I hope once I build a community, It will be a very useful and motivating space for those interested in improving their geometry. The link is
here.

I look forward to seeing you all in the forum!

Problem 1
a) Let \( a, b, c \in \mathbb{R} \) such that \( ab + bc + ca = 1 \). Compute the value of the expression:
\[
P = \frac{a}{1 + a^2} + \frac{b}{1 + b^2} + \frac{c}{1 + c^2} - \frac{2}{(a + b)(b + c)(c + a)}.
\]
b) Let \( x, y, z \in \mathbb{R} \) such that
\[
27(x + y + z)^3 = 240 + (3x + y - z)^3 + (3y + z - x)^3 + (3z + x - y)^3.
\]Prove that \( (x + 2y)(y + 2z)(z + 2x) = 10 \).

Problem 2

a) Let \( p \) be a prime number greater than 5. Prove that \( p^4 + 239 \) is divisible by 240.

b) Do there exist integers \( a, b \) such that
\[
(a + b\sqrt{2026})^2 = 2024 + 2025\sqrt{2026} \ ?
\]
\item[c)] Find all natural number pairs \( (x, y) \) such that
\[
2^x \cdot x^2 = 9y^2 + 6y + 88.
\]
Problem 3

a)Let \( a, b, c \geq 0 \) such that \( a + b + c = 3 \). Prove that
\[
\frac{a}{b^2 + 1} + \frac{b}{c^2 + 1} + \frac{c}{a^2 + 1} \geq \frac{3}{2}.
\]
b) Let \( a, b, c > 0 \). Prove that
\[
\frac{1 + bc + ca}{(1 + a + b)^2} + \frac{1 + ca + ab}{(1 + b + c)^2} + \frac{1 + ab + bc}{(1 + c + a)^2} \geq 1.
\]Problem 4

Let triangle \( ABC \) be acute with \( AB < CA < BC \). Let the altitudes \( BE \) and \( CF \) intersect at \( H \). The line through \( E \) perpendicular to \( EF \) intersects the extensions of \( BC \) and \( AB \) at points \( I \) and \( P \), respectively. The line through \( F \) perpendicular to \( EF \) intersects the extensions of \( BC \) and \( CA \) at points \( K \) and \( Q \), respectively. Let \( M \) be the midpoint of \( BC \).


a) Prove that triangles \( AEF \) and \( ABC \) are similar.

b) Prove that triangle \( MEF \) is isosceles and that \( BK = CI \).

c) Prove that \( \angle EHP = \angle FHQ \).


Problem 5

Mr. Quý chooses two distinct integers \( a \) and \( b \), then writes down the following six numbers:
\[
ab,\quad a(a + 4),\quad ab(a + 4),\quad b(a + 4),\quad b(b + 4),\quad (a + 4)(b + 4).
\]Among these six numbers, what is the maximum number of perfect squares that can appear? Explain why.

Mental Block
CatDog76   12
Hi, I'm curently experiencing a mental block, I want to qualify for AIME and get a good score next year, currently I'm a ninth grader, I haven't grinded much since 5th grade and I feel because of that, I think I'm bad and that I cant learn because of my laziness and lack of discipline. I have a mental block and I feel like I cant get better no matter what. I really want to make Olympiad level my 11th grade year. I need to get through my mental block and how not to get nervous on tests, can anyone help.

The AoPSMO committee presents to you the AoPSMO (Art Of Problem Solving Mathematics Olympiad)!
[center]IMAGE
AI-generated Logo
[/center]

[center]If you truly want to compete or acknowledge about the competition,
please Carefully read the following paragraph.


Introduction
This a contest is designed to bridge the gap between junior Math Olympiads and the IMO. It consists of $6$ problems, one day 3 ones, to be solved in $4\tfrac12$ hours a day, each of which is proof-style, and may only be awarded an integral score between $[0,7]$.

real time

The papers will be released on in 4 days after at least 75 competitors have signed up. And submissions will end on <time>, by which we will release the problems and solutions in High School Olympiad Forum

Signing up
If you are interested, please sign up by typing $\verb|/signup|$ in this thread. We hope that you sign up if and only if you truly want to take the test and submit your answers.
no other things!
Our committee would continue to hold a series of such Olympiads on a regular basis if they are popular.
When you sign up, we will let you access the
participants forum.
caution

Numbers of Competitors
We don’t have many to correct your answers, so we need to control the number of competitors: no higher than 200 competitors, so be quick on signing up!

Rules
Please follow the instructions below in order to guarantee the best experience for everyone.
[list=1]
[*]Please control your time, we recommend you to use and only use $4\frac{1}{2}$ hours one day, for the fairness of our competition


[*]We will not allow a second chance for your answer, so be careful posting them to us


[*]Do the contest by Yourself! Communicating, using Bots, computers are not permitted!
[/list]

Submissions and the Leaderboard
Write your answers in English and submit a $\verb|.pdf|$ file to one of Jackson0423, JerryZYang, or MathMaxGreat by AoPS Private Message m. Both legible scans of handwritten work and typeset answers are acceptable.
Caution

You will be informed of your score shortly after the submission, and you may then decide whether your user name and score will be displayed on the leaderboard. In addition, you will be added to the participants' forum where you can discuss about the problems (after the competition ends).

Leaderboard (0)

Awards
Just like $IMO$,
the first $\tfrac{1}{12}$ takes Gold awarding 5 points,
first $\tfrac{1}{6}$ Silver awarding 4 points,
and $\tfrac{1}{4}$ Bronze awarding 2 points.
And we will award the First Place 7 points.

Problem making and selecting
We found that many of you want to post your problems in the shortlist or select them.
We recommend you to do it carefully, if you have a problem made by yourself, then you please improve it by yourself and please Do not post any problem you make. There are many problems which is insanely to hard or too obvious to be in the shortlist or using college math etc. and make sure you have a solution for you problem!
The ones who makes the final problem in the competition will be awarded 4.5 points.
The competitor/problem maker with the most points in a year will be awarded the title: Yearly Champion!

Contacts and Suggestions
If you have any problem or suggestions with the contest or any part of the information above, feel free to contact Jackson0423, JerryZYang, or MathMaxGreat by AoPS Private Message m, or by email

AMC 10/12 trainer
grapecoder   13
Hey guys, I created an AMC 8/10/12 trainer a while back which has a bunch of different resources. It saves statistics and has multiple modes, allowing you to do problems in an alcumus style or full exam mode with a timer and multiple solutions scraped from the AOPS wiki. If anyone's interested, I can work on adding AIME and more.

Here's the link: https://amctrainer.org
And here's the code (if anyone's interested): https://github.com/megagames-me/amc-trainer

Any feedback/suggestions are appreciated!

Geometry problems
Not__Infinity   46
So i have bad Geometry intuition for geometry olympiad problems. That's why I have decided that should we create a forum for geometry study for people like me. Where we can explain concepts, and solving questions with each other. Also, if anybody who is pro at olympiad geometry is also welcomed as he/she will help us better bcz of experience.

If everybody agree, i will work on it :).

Also, if anybody knows these types of forum, pls invite me.

Two triangles in the incircle are congruent
v_Enhance   6
Source: ELMO Shortlist 2013: Problem G1, by Owen Goff
Let $ABC$ be a triangle with incenter $I$. Let $U$, $V$ and $W$ be the intersections of the angle bisectors of angles $A$, $B$, and $C$ with the incircle, so that $V$ lies between $B$ and $I$, and similarly with $U$ and $W$. Let $X$, $Y$, and $Z$ be the points of tangency of the incircle of triangle $ABC$ with $BC$, $AC$, and $AB$, respectively. Let triangle $UVW$ be the David Yang triangle of $ABC$ and let $XYZ$ be the Scott Wu triangle of $ABC$. Prove that the David Yang and Scott Wu triangles of a triangle are congruent if and only if $ABC$ is equilateral.

Consider an acute-angled triangle $\triangle ABC$ ($AC>AB$) with its orthocenter $H$ and circumcircle $\Gamma$.Points $M$,$P$ are midpoints of $BC$ and $AH$ respectively.The line $\overline{AM}$ meets $\Gamma$ again at $X$ and point $N$ lies on the line $\overline{BC}$ so that $\overline{NX}$ is tangent to $\Gamma$.
Points $J$ and $K$ lie on the circle with diameter $MP$ such that $\angle AJP=\angle HNM$ ($B$ and $J$ lie one the same side of $\overline{AH}$) and circle $\omega_1$, passing through $K,H$, and $J$, and circle $\omega_2$ passing through $K,M$, and $N$, are externally tangent to each other. Prove that the common external tangents of $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ meet on the line $\overline{NH}$.

Source: IMC 2025, Problem 1
Let $P \in \mathbb{R}[x]$ be a polynomial with real coefficients, and suppose $\operatorname{deg}(P) \geq 2$. For every $x \in \mathbb{R}$, let $\ell_x \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ denote the line tangent to the graph of $P$ at the point ( $x, P(x)$ ).
a) Suppose that the degree of $P$ is odd. Show that $\bigcup_{x \in \mathbb{R}} \ell_x=\mathbb{R}^2$.
b) Does there exist a polynomial of even degree for which the above equality still holds?

Bijection on set of maps
enter16180   0
Source: IMC 2025, Problem 5
For a positive integer $n$, let $[n]=\{1,2, \ldots, n\}$. Denote by $S_n$ the set of all bijections from $[n]$ to $[n]$, and let $T_n$ be the set of all maps from $[n]$ to $[n]$. Define the order $\operatorname{ord}(\tau)$ of a map $\tau \in T_n$ as the number of distinct maps in the set $\{\tau, \tau \circ \tau, \tau \circ \tau \circ \tau, \ldots\}$ where o denotes composition. Finally, let
$$
f(n)=\max _{\tau \in S_n} \operatorname{ord}(\tau) \quad \text { and } \quad g(n)=\max _{\tau \in T_n} \operatorname{ord}(\tau) .
$$Prove that $g(n)<f(n)+n^{0.501}$ for sufficiently large $n$.

If other person is using my phone, he often makes something in my phone bad(like sending bad messages). How to enhance my phone’s security? I think the reason why he often makes something in my phone bad is my weak security(I do not even do 2nd certification.)

Classroom Problem
Joyful_Sapling   8
Hello guys!

I noticed something weird (it happened a lot), in the AoPS classroom, it wouldn't let me enter something twice. (Error image attached) I know this is something common, but if you want to say "no" for a question, and the next question your response is "no" as well, then you got to make it fancy so that it would let you send to the instructor. That is a problem. If a student doesn't want to waste a second making it fancy, then that is the problem. Maybe making it fancy would take so long that it might just make the person be less-possible to be pinned.

thank you
