APMO 2017 Problem 5

  • Paper
  • Answer

Let nn be a positive integer. A pair of nn-tuples (a1,…,an)\left(a_{1}, \ldots, a_{n}\right) and (b1,…,bn)\left(b_{1}, \ldots, b_{n}\right) with integer entries is called an exquisite pair if

∣a1b1+⋯+anbn∣≤1\left|a_{1} b_{1}+\cdots+a_{n} b_{n}\right| \leq 1

Determine the maximum number of distinct nn-tuples with integer entries such that any two of them form an exquisite pair.
