Let $p_n(k)$ be the number of permutations of the set $\{1,2,3,\ldots,n\}$ which have exactly $k$ fixed points. Prove that $\sum_{k=0}^nk p_n(k)=n!$.

In an acute-angled triangle $ABC$ the interior bisector of angle $A$ meets $BC$ at $L$ and meets the circumcircle of $ABC$ again at $N$. From $L$ perpendiculars are drawn to $AB$ and $AC$, with feet $K$ and $M$ respectively. Prove that the quadrilateral $AKNM$ and the triangle $ABC$ have equal areas.

Let $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n$ be real numbers satisfying $x_1^2+x_2^2+\ldots+x_n^2=1$. Prove that for every integer $k\ge2$ there are integers $a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_n$, not all zero, such that $|a_i|\le k-1$ for all $i$, and $|a_1x_1+a_2x_2+\ldots+a_nx_n|\le{(k-1)\sqrt n\over k^n-1}$.

Prove that there is no function $f$ from the set of non-negative integers into itself such that $f(f(n))=n+1987$ for all $n$.

Let $n\ge3$ be an integer. Prove that there is a set of $n$ points in the plane such that the distance between any two points is irrational and each set of three points determines a non-degenerate triangle with rational area.

Let $n\ge2$ be an integer. Prove that if $k^2+k+n$ is prime for all integers $k$ such that $0\le k\le\sqrt{n\over3}$, then $k^2+k+n$ is prime for all integers $k$ such that $0\le k\le n-2$.
