ELMO 2012 Problem 2

    Find all ordered pairs of positive integers (m,n)(m,n) for which there exists a set C={c1,…,ck}C=\{c_1,\ldots,c_k\} ( k≥1k\ge1 ) of colors and an assignment of colors to each of the mnmn unit squares of a m×nm\times n grid such that for every color ci∈Cc_i\in C and unit square SS of color cic_i , exactly two direct (non-diagonal) neighbors of SS have color cic_i .
