Because of some serious problems, this contest might be the last atcoder contest this year. So please treasure this precious oppotunity!

    I found that it was your first time participating in AGC as a rated contestant. It showed that you actually attached importance to the contest. Wish you good luck!

Wow, very cute A! Good old $$$1/7=0.(142857)$$$ :D (but with 1/1019 this time)

B seems great too, though I couldn't figure it out even though I got a lot of good observations. I can prove that the result without forbidding anything is $$$2n^n$$$, but it still seems like a long way to go...

What made you think of decimal expansion when solving A? I OEIS'ed it :(

I brute forced when X and 2*X have a lot of digits in common, and searched the digit sequence in OEIS. Found decimal expansion of 19

It also referred me here, to try 383 after 19: magic-square-something

Then I wrote the checker to see if all multiples are present, and indeed 19 and 383 worked.

Next item on that list was 32327, which is too big. So I just guessed that maybe the first primes after 1000 would work instead. 1009 and 1013 didn't work, but 1019 worked. Proof by AC!

Problem C can also be solved somewhat easily if you google the right keywords and dig out this paper.

Solution

Thanks for the contest! This is probably the highest delta I've ever received for solving a single problem.

I have a question for the editorial of the problem B. Suppose $$$n = 2, p_2 = 1$$$ and $$$G = \{1 \rightarrow 2, 2 \rightarrow 2\}$$$. Then $$$f(G, \emptyset) = 1, f(G, \{1\}) = 0, f(G, \{2\}) = 1, f(G, \{1, 2\}) = 1$$$ and the sum will be $$$3$$$ instead of $$$2$$$, what am I missing ? For $$$S = \{1, 2\}$$$ "consists solely of several vertex-disjoint cycles." does not work.

    Thanks! The editorial has been corrected.

Thanks a lot for the round!

My screencast with mumbling and a short recap of the solutions at the end. Unfortunately my docking station stopped working about 20 minutes before the end, so there are a few minutes that are cut out, and afterwards there is no screencast, only camera.
