2017-17 An infimum
For an integer \( n \geq 3 \), evaluate
\[
\inf \left\{ \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i^2}{(1-x_i)^2} \right\},
\]
where the infimum is taken over all \( n \)-tuple of real numbers \( x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n \neq 1 \) satisfying that \( x_1 x_2 \dots x_n = 1 \).

Solution: 2017-15 Infinite product
For \( x \in (1, 2) \), prove that there exists a unique sequence of positive integers \( \{ x_i \} \) such that \( x_{i+1} \geq x_i^2 \) and
\[
x = \prod_{i=1}^{\infty} (1 + \frac{1}{x_i}).
\]

Solution: 2017-16 Finding a rectangle
Is it possible to color all lattice points (\(\mathbb Z\times \mathbb Z\)) in the plane into two colors such that if four distinct points \( (a,b), (a+c,b), (a,b+d), (a+c,b+d)\) have the same color, then \( d/c\notin \{1,2,3,4,6\}\)?
