Hello everyone! The 7th Stage of the 1st Universal Cup: Zaporizhzhia, will be held on March 11th, 2023.

The contest is based on the Day 2: Oleksandr Kulkov Contest 3 from the Osijek Competitive Programming Camp 2023. Please, don't participate if you have seen these problems.

Authors of the problems: adamant, fedimser, I would also like to thank -is-this-fft- for the help with the preparation of the contest.

We hope you will like the problems!

You can participate in the contest in the following three time windows:

      Yes you are correct. The ratings marked red are the external ones. And the ratings marked blue are the ratings assigned to the author(s).

    Jeroen wrote a detailed elementary proof here. Otherwise, one can prove through obscure group theoretic stuff that $$$S_n$$$ only has $$$A_n$$$ and $$$S_{n-1}$$$ as subgroups of index $$$\leq n$$$ for $$$n > 4$$$.
