Suppose that \( z_1, z_2, \dots, z_n \) are complex numbers satisfying \( \sum_{k=1}^n z_k = 0 \). Prove that
\[
\sum_{k=1}^n |z_{k+1} – z_k|^2 \geq 4 \sin^2 \left( \frac{\pi}{n} \right) \sum_{k=1}^n |z_k|^2,
\]
where we let \( z_{n+1} = z_1 \).

Let \(M_n=(a_{ij})_{ij}\) be an \(n\times n\) matrix such that \[a_{ij}=\binom{2(i+j-1)}{i+j-1}.\] What is \(\det M_n\)?
