چکیده

Subtraction games is a class of impartial combinatorial games, They with finite subtraction sets are known to have periodic nim-sequences. So people try to find the regular of the games. But for specific of Sprague-Grundy Theory, it is too difficult to find, they obtained some conclusions just by simple observing. This paper used PTFN algorithm to analyze the period of the Subtraction games. It is more suitable than Sprague-Grundy Theory, and this paper obtained four conclusions by PTFN algorithm . This algorithm provide a new direction to study the subtraction games’ period.

Superlinear Period Lengths in Some Subtraction Games

Subtraction games are \simple" variants of the famous Nim game Bou 01]. In this note we will show that in some subtraction games the sequences of Win/Loss states have superlinear period lengths. Our most prominent observation is: For all s with 1 s 26 the (s,4s,12s+1,16s+1)-game has the cubic period length 56s 3 + 52s 2 + 9s + 1. Possibly, the (s,8s,30s+1,37s+1,38s+1)-games with s 2 N have su-p...

A New Algorithm for the Subtraction Games

Subtraction games is a class of combinatorial games. It was solved since the Sprague-Grundy Theory was put forward. This paper described a new algorithm for subtraction games. The new algorithm can find win or lost positions in subtraction games. In addition, it is much simpler than Sprague-Grundy Theory in one pile of the games.
