Let $\alpha$ be a non-zero real number. Find all functions $f: \mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ such that \[ xf(x+y)=(x+\alpha y)f(x)+xf(y) \]for all $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$.

Let $\mathbb{R}^+$ be the set of all positive real numbers. Find all functions $f: \mathbb{R}^+\to\mathbb{R}^+$ such that \[ \frac{f(a)}{1+a+ca}+\frac{f(b)}{1+b+ab}+\frac{f(c)}{1+c+bc} = 1 \]for all $a,b,c \in \mathbb{R}^+$ that satisfy $abc=1$.

Positive real numbers $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_{2024}$ are written on the blackboard. A move consists of choosing two numbers $x$ and $y$ on the blackboard, erasing them and writing the number $\frac{x^2+6xy+y^2}{x+y}$ on the blackboard. After $2023$ moves, only one number $c$ will remain on the blackboard. Prove that \[ c<2024 (a_1+a_2+\ldots+a_{2024}).\]

Find the largest real number $\alpha$ such that, for all non-negative real numbers $x$, $y$ and $z$, the following inequality holds: \[ (x+y+z)^3 + \alpha (x^2z + y^2x + z^2y) \geq \alpha (x^2y + y^2z + z^2x). \]

Find all positive real numbers $\lambda$ such that every sequence $a_1, a_2, \ldots$ of positive real numbers satisfying \[ a_{n+1}=\lambda\cdot\frac{a_1+a_2+\ldots+a_n}{n} \]for all $n\geq 2024^{2024}$ is bounded. Remark: A sequence $a_1,a_2,\ldots$ of positive real numbers is \emph{bounded} if there exists a real number $M$ such that $a_i<M$ for all $i=1,2,\ldots$

A labyrinth is a system of $2024$ caves and $2023$ non-intersecting (bidirectional) corridors, each of which connects exactly two caves, where each pair of caves is connected through some sequence of corridors. Initially, Erik is standing in a corridor connecting some two caves. In a move, he can walk through one of the caves to another corridor that connects that cave to a third cave. However, when doing so, the corridor he was just in will magically disappear and get replaced by a new one connecting the end of his new corridor to the beginning of his old one (i.e., if Erik was in a corridor connecting caves $a$ and $b$ and he walked through cave $b$ into a corridor that connects caves $b$ and $c$, then the corridor between caves $a$ and $b$ will disappear and a new corridor between caves $a$ and $c$ will appear). Since Erik likes designing labyrinths and has a specific layout in mind for his next one, he is wondering whether he can transform the labyrinth into that layout using these moves. Prove that this is in fact possible, regardless of the original layout and his starting position there.

A $45 \times 45$ grid has had the central unit square removed. For which positive integers $n$ is it possible to cut the remaining area into $1 \times n$ and $n\times 1$ rectangles?

Let $a$, $b$, $n$ be positive integers such that $a + b \leq n^2$. Alice and Bob play a game on an (initially uncoloured) $n\times n$ grid as follows: - First, Alice paints $a$ cells green. - Then, Bob paints $b$ other (i.e.uncoloured) cells blue. Alice wins if she can find a path of non-blue cells starting with the bottom left cell and ending with the top right cell (where a path is a sequence of cells such that any two consecutive ones have a common side), otherwise Bob wins. Determine, in terms of $a$, $b$ and $n$, who has a winning strategy.

Let $S$ be a finite set. For a positive integer $n$, we say that a function $f\colon S\to S$ is an $n$-th power if there exists some function $g\colon S\to S$ such that \[ f(x) = \underbrace{g(g(\ldots g(x)\ldots))}_{\mbox{\scriptsize $g$ applied $n$ times}} \]for each $x\in S$. Suppose that a function $f\colon S\to S$ is an $n$-th power for each positive integer $n$. Is it necessarily true that $f(f(x)) = f(x)$ for each $x\in S$?

A frog is located on a unit square of an infinite grid oriented according to the cardinal directions. The frog makes moves consisting of jumping either one or two squares in the direction it is facing, and then turning according to the following rules: i) If the frog jumps one square, it then turns $90^\circ$ to the right; ii) If the frog jumps two squares, it then turns $90^\circ$ to the left. Is it possible for the frog to reach the square exactly $2024$ squares north of the initial square after some finite number of moves if it is initially facing: a) North; b) East?
