Let $w$ be a circle and $AB$ a line not intersecting $w$. Given a point $P_{0}$ on $w$, define the sequence $P_{0},P_{1},\ldots $ as follows: $P_{n+1}$ is the second intersection with $w$ of the line passing through $B$ and the second intersection of the line $AP_{n}$ with $w$. Prove that for a positive integer $k$, if $P_{0}=P_{k}$ for some choice of $P_{0}$, then $P_{0}=P_{k}$ for any choice of $P_{0}$. Gheorge Eckstein
