IrMO 2017 Problem 10

  • Paper 2

Given a positive integer mm , a sequence of real numbers a=(a1,a2,a3,...)a= (a_1,a_2,a_3,...) is called mm -powerful if it satisfies (∑k=1nak)m=∑k=1nakm(\sum_{k=1}^{n} a_k )^{m} = \sum_{k=1}^{n} a_k^{m} for all positive integers nn . (a) Show that a sequence is 3030 -powerful if and only if at most one of its terms is non-zero. (b) Find a sequence none of whose terms are zero but which is 20172017 -powerful.
