Problem 3

For nonnegative integers mm and nn , define the sequence a(m,n)a(m,n) of real numbers as follows. Set a(0,0)=2a(0,0)=2 and for every natural number nn , set a(0,n)=1a(0,n)=1 and a(n,0)=2a(n,0)=2 . Then for m,n≥1m,n\geq1 , define a(m,n)=a(m−1,n)+a(m,n−1).a(m,n)=a(m-1,n)+a(m,n-1). Prove that for every natural number kk , all the roots of the polynomial Pk(x)=∑i=0ka(i,2k+1−2i)xiP_{k}(x)=\sum_{i=0}^{k}a(i,2k+1-2i)x^{i} are real.

Problem 4

mm and nn are two nonnegative integers. In the Philosopher's Chess, The chessboard is an infinite grid of identical regular hexagons and a new piece named the Donkey moves on it as follows:

Starting from one of the hexagons, the Donkey moves mm cells in one of the 66 directions, then it turns 6060 degrees clockwise and after that moves nn cells in this new direction until it reaches it's final cell.

At most how many cells are in the Philosopher's chessboard such that one cannot go from anyone of them to the other with a finite number of movements of the Donkey?
