Let $\Lambda= \{1, 2, \ldots, 2v-1,2v\}$ and $P=\{\alpha_1, \alpha_2, \ldots, \alpha_{2v-1}, \alpha_{2v}\}$ be a permutation of the elements of $\Lambda$. (a) Prove that $$\sum_{i=1}^v \alpha_{2i-1}\alpha_{2i} \leq \sum_{i=1}^v (2i-1)2i.$$(b) Determine the largest positive integer $m$ such that we can partition the $m\times m$ square into $7$ rectangles for which every pair of them has no common interior points and their lengths and widths form the following sequence: $$1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14.$$
