MEMO 2011 I1

    Initially, only the integer 4444 is written on a board. An integer a on the board can be re- placed with four pairwise different integers a1,a2,a3,a4a_1, a_2, a_3, a_4 such that the arithmetic mean 14(a1+a2+a3+a4)\frac 14 (a_1 + a_2 + a_3 + a_4) of the four new integers is equal to the number aa . In a step we simultaneously replace all the integers on the board in the above way. After 3030 steps we end up with n=430n = 4^{30} integers b1,b2,…,bnb_1, b2,\ldots, b_n on the board. Prove that b12+b22+b32+⋯+bn2n≥2011.\frac{b_1^2 + b_2^2+b_3^2+\cdots+b_n^2}{n}\geq 2011.
