There are \(n\) people participating to a chess tournament and every two players play one game. There are no draws. Let \(a_i\) be the number of wins of the \(i\)-th player and \(b_i\) be the number of losses of the \(i\)-th player. Prove that
\[\sum_{i\in [n]} a_i^2 = \sum_{i\in [n]} b_i^2.\]

Let \(F\) be a family of nonempty subsets of \([n]=\{1,\dots,n\}\) such that no two disjoint subsets of \(F\) have the same union. In other words, for \(F =\{ A_1,A_2,\dots, A_k\},\) there exists no two sets \(I, J\subseteq [k]\) with \(I\cap J =\emptyset\) and \(\bigcup_{i\in I}A_i = \bigcup_{j\in J} A_j\). Determine the maximum possible size of \(F\).
