ILL 1986 Problem 25

    Let real numbers x1,x2,⋯ ,xnx_1, x_2, \cdots , x_n satisfy 0<x1<x2<⋯<xn<10 < x_1 < x_2 < \cdots< x_n < 1 and set x0=0,xn+1=1x_0 = 0, x_{n+1} = 1. Suppose that these numbers satisfy the following system of equations: ∑j=0,j≠in+11xi−xj=0where i=1,2,...,n.\sum_{j=0, j \neq i}^{n+1} \frac{1}{x_i-x_j}=0 \text{where } i = 1, 2, . . ., n.

    Prove that xn+1−i=1−xix_{n+1-i} = 1- x_i for i=1,2,...,n.i = 1, 2, . . . , n.
