1 Let a, b, c be positive real numbers. Prove the inequality
\frac{1}{a\left(b+1\right)}+\frac{1}{b\left(c+1\right)}+\frac{1}{c\left(a+1\right)}\geq \frac{3}{1+abc}.
2 Let ABC be a triangle and m a line which intersects the sides AB and AC at interior points D and F, respectively, and intersects the line BC at a point E such that C lies between B and E. The parallel lines from the points A, B, C to the line m intersect the circumcircle of triangle ABC at the points A_1, B_1 and C_1, respectively (apart from A, B, C). Prove that the lines A_1E , B_1F and C_1D pass through the same point.

4 Let m be a positive integer and \{a_n\}_{n\geq 0} be a sequence given by a_0 = a \in \mathbb N, and a_{n+1} = \begin{cases} \displaystyle \frac{a_n}2 & \textrm { if } a_n \equiv 0 \pmod 2, \\ a_n + m & \textrm{ otherw...
