The first competition day of the 6th Caucasus Mathematical Olympiad is finally over. Although the tasks were challenging, the participants solved them with real enthusiasm.

Their eyes shining with excitement showed that math is in their blood and that the intricate and unconventional tasks prepared by the Problem Selection Committee of the Olympiad were just what those young hungry minds needed.

About 170 children participated in this Round of the Olympiad, including the participants from outside of Russia. After the Round was over, the participants who were able to come to Maykop had a photoshoot with the Jury.

The programme of the 6th Caucasus Mathematical Olympiad is already available on the official website.

The Olympiad will take place from March 12 to March 17.

These six days will let the participants experience a variety of positive emotions brought by traditional Southern hospitality, well-organized Olympiad, eventful programme and a true symbol of the Olympiad - the City Integral game.

The Opening Ceremony of the Olympiad will be hosted on March 12 at 18.00 at the Main Building of Adyghe State University.

The biggest mathematical event of the year in Adygea is over. For five days and two rounds almost 200 teenage mathematicians from fourteen regions and nine countries proved to themselves and others their worth, strength, determination and mathematical prowess. Their works were written, examined and discussed at length.

It’s not only about competition – the two leagues (Grades 7-9, and 10-11) enjoyed a wide range of extra-curricular activities fit to suit every taste.

Today’s Closing Ceremony included the awards medals, diplomas and certificates to the brightest young minds of the Caucasus Mathematical Olympiad – 2020.

Junior League winners (First prize-holders):

After two whole days filled with problems – mathematical ones, of course – our young champions were entitled to a change of scene. It did not imply boredom . On the contrary, the children had a very busy schedule to follow.

• Morning lectures with Professors Savvateev and Andreev charmed the sleep away from our young charges and introduced them to the beauty of Mathematics;
• An outing to the movies with friends at the «IKOCinema»;
• Lecture by Elena Bryzgalina about soft- and hard skills in higher education;
• Adyghe dancing club;

And, of course, a disco night. And, trust me, these teenagers do know how to party.  What does tomorrow have in store? Can’t tell you, but you don’t want to miss it.
