AMO 2020 Problem 7

    A tetramino tile is a tile that can be formed by gluing together four unit square tiles, edge to edge. For each natural number n, consider a bathroom whose floor is in the shape of a 2∗2n2*2n rectangle. Let TnT_n be the number of ways to tile this bathroom floor with tetramino tiles. Prove that, each of the numbers T1,T2,T3,⋯T_1 , T_2 , T_3 , \cdots is a perfect square.
