  • Paper

Let f(x)=∣2{x}−1∣f(x)=|2\{x\}-1| where {x}\{x\} denotes the fractional part of xx. The number nn is the smallest positive integer such that the equation nf(xf(x))=xnf(xf(x))=x has at least 20122012 real solutions. What is nn? '''Note:''' the fractional part of xx is a real number y={x}y=\{x\} such that 0≤y<10\le y<1 and x−yx-y is an integer.
