Problem 2

Suppose f(x)f(x) is a function satisfying ∣f(m+n)−f(m)∣≤nm\left | f(m+n)-f(m) \right | \leq \frac{n}{m} for all positive integers mm , nn . Show that for all positive integers kk : ∑i=1k∣f(2k)−f(2i)∣≤k(k−1)2\sum_{i=1}^{k}\left |f(2^k)-f(2^i) \right |\leq \frac{k(k-1)}{2}.

Problem 5

A permutation a1,a2,⋯ ,a6a_1,a_2,\cdots ,a_6 of numbers 1,2,⋯ ,61,2,\cdots ,6 can be transformed to 1,2,⋯ ,61,2,\cdots,6 by transposing two numbers exactly four times. Find the number of such permutations.
