USAMO 2015 Problem 3

  • Day 1

Let S={1,2,…,n}S = \left\{ 1,2,\dots,n \right\} , where n≥1n \ge 1 . Each of the 2n2^n subsets of SS is to be colored red or blue. (The subset itself is assigned a color and not its individual elements.) For any set T⊆ST \subseteq S , we then write f(T)f(T) for the number of subsets of TT that are blue.

Determine the number of colorings that satisfy the following condition: for any subsets T1T_1 and T2T_2 of SS , f(T1)f(T2)=f(T1∪T2)f(T1∩T2).f(T_1)f(T_2) = f(T_1 \cup T_2)f(T_1 \cap T_2).
