Determine all integers n≥2 n\geq 2 having the following property: for any integers a1,a2,…,ana_1,a_2,\ldots, a_n whose sum is not divisible by nn, there exists an index 1≤i≤n1 \leq i \leq n such that none of the numbers ai,ai+ai+1,…,ai+ai+1+…+ai+n−1a_i,a_i+a_{i+1},\ldots,a_i+a_{i+1}+\ldots+a_{i+n-1} is divisible by nn. Here, we let ai=ai−na_i=a_{i-n} when i>ni >n. [i]

Determine all integers n≥2 having the following property: for any integers a₁,a₂,…,a_(n) whose sum is not divisible by n, there exists an index 1≤i≤n such that none of the numbers a_(i),a_(i)+a_(i+1),…,a_(i)+a_(i+1)+…+a_(i+n−1) is divisible by n. Here, we let a_(i)=a_(i−n) when i>n.

Original LaTeX notation
Determine all integers $ n\geq 2$ having the following property: for any integers $a_1,a_2,\ldots, a_n$ whose sum is not divisible by $n$, there exists an index $1 \leq i \leq n$ such that none of the numbers $$a_i,a_i+a_{i+1},\ldots,a_i+a_{i+1}+\ldots+a_{i+n-1}$$ is divisible by $n$. Here, we let $a_i=a_{i-n}$ when $i >n$.
