Problem 2

Let FF be a polygon the boundary of which is a broken line with vertices in the knots (units) of a given in advance regular square network. If kk is the count of knots of the network situated over the boundary of FF , and ℓ\ell is the count of the knots of the network lying inside FF , prove that if the surface of every square from the network is 11 , then the surface SS of FF is calculated with the formulae: S=k2+ℓ−1S=\frac k2+\ell-1 V.

Problem 3

Let f(x)=a0x3+a1x2+a2x+a3f(x)=a_0x^3+a_1x^2+a_2x+a_3 be a polynomial with real coefficients ( a0≠0a_0\ne0 ) such that ∣f(x)∣≤1|f(x)|\le1 for every x∈[−1,1]x\in[-1,1] . Prove that

(a) there exist a constant cc (one and the same for all polynomials with the given property), for which (b) ∣a0∣≤4|a_0|\le4 .

Problem 4

In the plane are given a circle kk with radii RR and the points A1,A2,…,AnA_1,A_2,\ldots,A_n , lying on kk or outside kk . Prove that there exist infinitely many points XX from the given circumference for which ∑i=1nAiX2≥2nR2.\sum_{i=1}^n A_iX^2\ge2nR^2. Does there exist a pair of points on different sides of some diameter, XX and YY from kk , such that ∑i=1nAiX2≥2nR2 and ∑i=1nAiY2≥2nR2?\sum_{i=1}^n A_iX^2\ge2nR^2\text{ and }\sum_{i=1}^n A_iY^2\ge2nR^2?

Problem 5

Let the subbishop (a bishop is the figure moving only by a diagonal) be a figure moving only by diagonal but only in the next cells (squares) of the chessboard. Find the maximal count of subbishops over a chessboard n×nn\times n , no two of which are not attacking.

Problem 6

Some of the faces of a convex polyhedron MM are painted in blue, others are painted in white and there are no two walls with a common edge. Prove that if the sum of surfaces of the blue walls is bigger than half surface of MM then it may be inscribed a sphere in the polyhedron given (M)(M) .
