KURSCHAK 1982 Problem 3

    The set of integers is coloured in 100100 colours in such a way that all the colours are used and the following is true. For any choice of intervals [a,b][a, b] and [c,d][c,d] of equal length and with integral endpoints, if a and c as well as bb and dd , respectively, have the same colour, then the whole intervals [a,b][a, b] and [c,d][c,d] are identically coloured in that, for any integer xx , 0≤x≤b−a0 \le x \le b - a , the numbers a+xa + x and c+xc + x are of the same colour. Prove that −1982-1982 and 19821982 are of different colours
