  • Answer

Queenie and Horst play a game on a 20×2020 \times 20 chessboard. In the beginning the board is empty. In every turn, Horst places a black knight on an empty square in such a way that his new knight does not attack any previous knights. Then Queenie places a white queen on an empty square. The game gets finished when somebody cannot move. Find the maximal positive KK such that, regardless of the strategy of Queenie, Horst can put at least KK knights on the board. (Armenia)
