Let $a_1, a_2, \cdots, a_{2n+1}$ be a set of integers such that, if any one of them is removed, the remaining ones can be divided into two sets of $n$ integers with equal sums. Prove $a_1 = a_2 = \cdots = a_{2n+1}$.
Assume $a_1 \le a_2 \le \cdots \le a_{2n+1}$. By subtracting the smallest number from the set, the remaining set still maintain the the property. Therefore we may assume $a_1=0$. The sum of any $2n$ members must be even, hence any two members must be of the same parity. (otherwise, we may swap members to form two groups of $2n$ elements which are of different parity). Therefore
$$0=a_1\equiv a_1 \equiv a_2 \equiv \cdots \equiv a_{2n+1} \pmod{2}$$
Dividing by 2, we note the new sequence will maintain the same property. using the same reasoning, we see that $$0=a_1\equiv a_1 \equiv a_2 \equiv \cdots \equiv a_{2n+1} \pmod{2^2}$$
This process can be repeated infinitely. This is possible only if the initial members are all equal.
