The BStat and BMath Entrance of ISI Entrance is ‘different’ from IIT JEE or other engineering entrances. It tests creativity and ingenuity of the problem solver that requires more than mechanical application of formulae. Many of these problems are inspired from erstwhile Soviet Union math contests and other math olympiads. The entrance has two sections: […]

Problem 1. Let $x_1, x_2, x_3, \ldots$ be a sequence of positive integers defined as follows: $x_1=1$ and for each $n \geqslant 1$ we have $$x_{n+1}=x_n+\left\lfloor\sqrt{x_n}\right\rfloor$$ Determine all positive integers $m$ for which $x_n=m^2$ for some $n \geqslant 1$. (Here $\lfloor x\rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer less or equal to $x$ for every real number […]
