Other problems

Problem 1

For any positive integer mm , denote by di(m)d_i(m) the number of positive divisors of mm that are congruent to ii modulo 22 . Prove that if nn is a positive integer, then ∣∑k=1n(d0(k)−d1(k))∣≤n.\left|\sum_{k=1}^n \left(d_0(k)-d_1(k)\right)\right|\le n.

Problem 2

Given a triangle on the plane, construct inside the triangle the point PP for which the centroid of the triangle formed by the three projections of PP onto the sides of the triangle happens to be PP .

Problem 3

We are given more than 2k2^k integers, where k∈Nk\in\mathbb{N} . Prove that we can choose k+2k+2 of them such that if some of our selected numbers satisfy x1+x2+⋯+xm=y1+y2+⋯+ymx_1+x_2+\dots+x_m=y_1+y_2+\dots+y_m where x1<⋯<xmx_1<\dots<x_m and y1<⋯<ymy_1<\dots<y_m , then xi=yix_i=y_i for any 1≤i≤m1\le i\le m .
