SYLLABUS
The syllabus for Mathematics Olympiad (Regional, National and International) is pre-degree college
mathematics. The areas covered are, mainly
a)Algebra, b) Geometry, c) Number theory & d) Graph theory & combinatorics.
Algebra:
Polynomials,
Solving
equations,
inequalities
and
complex
numbers.
Geometry: Geometry of triangles and circles.
(Trigonometric methods, vector methods, complex number methods, transformation geometry
methods can also be used to solve problems)
Number Theory: Divisibility, Diophantine equations, congruence relations, prime numbers and
elementary results on prime numbers.
Combinatorics & Graph Theory : Counting techniques, pigeon hole principle, principle of inclusion
and exclusion, basic graph theory.
Problems pertaining to these concepts will be of non-routine type with difficulty level increasing
from RMO to INMO to IMO.
Further to motivate this type of thinking from Class V onwards questions solvable by the best
with clear knowledge of concepts introduced to them applied to problem solving will be set for
primary (V & VI), sub-Junior (VII & VIII), Junior (IX & X) and Inter (XI & XII).
A glance at the Questions & Solutions of previous years and the books published by the AMTI will
facilitate students at all levels to understand the nature of Olympiad examinations. Please see
details given in this file for how to get the books, the mode of payment etc.
