Problem B. 4783. (March 2016)

B. 4783. A flea is jumping on the vertices of a square \(\displaystyle ABCD\). It starts at vertex \(\displaystyle A\), and in each jump he moves to an adjacent vertex with a probability of \(\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\) for each. The flea will stop when it has reached all vertices at least once. For each vertex, determine the probability of its being the last vertex.
