Putnam 1982 B4

  • Session B

Let n1,n2,…,nsn_1,n_2,\ldots,n_s be distinct integers such that (n1+k)(n2+k)⋯(ns+k)(n_1+k)(n_2+k)\cdots(n_s+k) is an integral multiple of n1n2⋯nsn_1n_2\cdots n_s for every integer kk . For each of the following assertions give a proof or a counterexample: (a)(\text a) ∣ni∣=1|n_i|=1 for some ii (b)(\text b) If further all nin_i are positive, then {n1,n2,…,n2}={1,2,…,s}.\{n_1,n_2,\ldots,n_2\}=\{1,2,\ldots,s\}.
