IR-TST 2022 Problem 6

    Let m,nm,n and a1,a2,…,ama_1,a_2,\dots,a_m be arbitrary positive integers. Ali and Mohammad Play the following game. At each step, Ali chooses b1,b2,…,bm∈Nb_1,b_2,\dots,b_m \in \mathbb{N} and then Mohammad chosses a positive integers ss and obtains a new sequence {ci=ai+bi+s}i=1m\{c_i=a_i+b_{i+s}\}_{i=1}^m , where bm+1=b1, bm+2=b2,…, bm+s=bsb_{m+1}=b_1,\ b_{m+2}=b_2, \dots,\ b_{m+s}=b_s The goal of Ali is to make all the numbers divisible by nn in a finite number of steps. FInd all positive integers mm and nn such that Ali has a winning strategy, no matter how the initial values a1,a2,…,ama_1, a_2,\dots,a_m are.
