Fool's solitaire on joins and Cartesian products of graphs

Peg solitaire is a game generalized to connected graphs by Beeler and Hoilman. In the game pegs are placed on all but one vertex. If xyz form a 3-vertex path and x and y each have a peg but z does not, then we can remove the pegs at x and y and place a peg at z. By analogy with the moves in the original game, this is called a jump. The goal of the peg solitaire game on graphs is to find jumps t...

Reversible peg solitaire on graphs

The game of peg solitaire on graphs was introduced by Beeler and Hoilman in 2011. In this game, pegs are initially placed on all but one vertex of a graph GG. If xyz forms a path in GG and there are pegs on vertices x and y but not z, then a jump places a peg on z and removes the pegs from x and y. A graph is called solvable if, for some configuration of pegs occupying all but one vertex, some ...

Peg solitaire on the windmill and the double star graphs

In a recent work by Beeler and Hoilman, the game of peg solitaire is generalized to arbitrary boards. These boards are treated as graphs in the combinatorial sense. In this paper, we extend this study by considering the windmill and the double star. Simple necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the solvability of each graph. We also discuss an open problem concerning the range of val...

On polytopality of Cartesian products of graphs

We study the polytopality of Cartesian products of non-polytopal graphs. On the one hand, we prove that a product of graphs is the graph of a simple polytope if and only if its factors are. On the other hand, we provide a general construction of polytopal products of a polytopal graph by a non-polytopal graph.

One-Dimensional Peg Solitaire

We solve the problem of one-dimensional peg solitaire. In particular, we show that the set of configurations that can be reduced to a single peg forms a regular language, and that a linear-time algorithm exists for playing the game.
