IMO 2024 Q1 #
Determine all real numbers $\alpha$ such that, for every positive integer $n$, the integer [ \lfloor \alpha \rfloor + \lfloor 2\alpha \rfloor + \cdots + \lfloor n\alpha \rfloor ] is a multiple of~$n$.
We follow Solution 3 from the official solutions. First reducing modulo 2, any answer that is not a multiple of 2 is inductively shown to be contained in a decreasing sequence of intervals, with empty intersection.
The condition of the problem.
