Title: Games of No Chance 6 Series: Mathematical Sciences Research Institute Publications Author: Larsson, Urban (Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay)(Editor) Publisher: Cambridge University Press ISBN: 9781009565523 Cover: HARDCOVER Date: 2025年06月 DESCRIPTION This collection of 22 research papers and state-of-the-art surveys extends the subseries 'Games of No Chance' pioneered in 1996. Survey topics include Richman bidding combinatorial games, classical subtraction games and absolute additive theory. Other topics discussed include extensions of normal play theory such as Absolute CGT and Affine normal play; additive theory; aspects of generic impartial games arising from the study of nim-values; dead-ending misere reduction theorems; Wythoff-type variations; complexity issues; and aspects of classical games including a rigorous justification of the celebrated result that king, bishop and knight can checkmate a lonely king on an arbitrarily large chessboard. The recurring list of open problems, updated and annotated, will interest all practitioners of CGT and related fields including algebra, computer science, combinatorics, number theory and classical game theory. Presents original research from top minds in the field via 18 groundbreaking research papers Highlights novel abstract games inspired by chess, checkers and Go that rarely appear elsewhere in the scientific literature Extends and generalizes techniques to analyze many classes of games TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.
