Find the following limit:
\[
\lim_{n \to \infty} \left( \frac{\sum_{k=1}^{n+2} k^k}{\sum_{k=1}^{n+1} k^k} – \frac{\sum_{k=1}^{n+1} k^k}{\sum_{k=1}^{n} k^k} \right)

Can we find a sequence \(a_i, i=0,1,2,…\) with the following property: for each given integer \(n\geq 0\), we have \[\lim_{L\to +\infty}\sum_{i=0}^L 2^{ni} |a_i|\leq 23^{(n+11)^{10}} \quad \text{ and }\quad \lim_{L\to +\infty}\sum_{i=0}^L 2^{ni} a_i = (-1)^n ?\]
Let \(N\) be the number of ordered tuples of positive integers \( (a_1,a_2,\ldots, a_{27} )\) such that \( \frac{1}{a_1} + \frac{1}{a_2} + \cdots +\frac{1}{a_{27}} = 1\). Compute the remainder of \(N\) when \(N\) is divided by \(3\).
Find all integers \( n \geq 8 \) such that there exists a simple graph with \( n \) vertices whose degrees are as follows:
(i) \( (n-4) \) vertices of the graph are with degrees \( 4, 5, 6, \dots, n-2, n-1 \), respectively.
(ii) The other \( 4 \) vertices are with degrees \( n-2, n-2, n-1, n-1 \), respectively.
Let \(f(x) = x^4 + (2-a)x^3 – (2a+1)x^2 + (a-2)x + 2a\) for some \(a \geq 2\). Draw two tangent lines of its graph at the point \((-1,0)\) and \((1,0)\) and let \(P\) be the intersection point. Denote by \(T\) the area of the triangle whose vertices are \((-1,0), (1,0)\) and \(P\). Let \(A\) be the area of domain enclosed by the interval \([-1,1]\) and the graph of the function on this interval. Show that \(T \leq 3A/2.\)
Define the sequence \( x_n \) by \( x_1 = 0 \) and
\[
x_n = x_{\lfloor n/2 \rfloor} + (-1)^{n(n+1)/2}
\]
for \( n \geq 2\). Find the number of \( n \leq 2023 \) such that \( x_n = 0 \).
Let \(f(t)=(t^{pq}-1)(t-1) \) and \(g(t)=(t^{p}-1)(t^q-1) \) where \(p\) and \(q\) are relatively prime positive integers. Prove that \(\frac{f(t)}{g(t)}\) can be written as a polynomial where it has just \(1\) or \(-1\) as coefficients. (For example, when \(p=2\) and \(q=3\), we have that \(\frac{f(t)}{g(t)} = t^2-t+1\).)
Prove or disprove the existence of a function \( f:[0, 1] \to [0, 1] \) with the following property:
for any interval \( (a, b) \subset [0, 1] \) with \( a<b \), \( f((a, b)) = [0, 1] \).
Let \(p\) be a prime number at least three and let \(k\) be a positive integer smaller than \(p\). Given \(a_1,\dots, a_k\in \mathbb{F}_p\) and distinct elements \(b_1,\dots, b_k\in \mathbb{F}_p\), prove that there exists a permutation \(\sigma\) of \([k]\) such that the values of \(a_i + b_{\sigma(i)}\) are distinct modulo \(p\).
