Advances in finding ideal play on poset games
Abstract
Poset games are a class of combinatorial game that remain unsolved. Soltys and Wilson proved that computing wining strategies is in PSPACE and aside from special cases such as Nim and N-Free games, P time algorithms for finding ideal play are unknown. This paper presents methods calculate the nimber of posets games allowing for the classification of winning or losing positions. The results present an equivalence of ideal strategies on posets that are seemingly unrelated.
