چکیده

We study the (1 : b) Maker–Breaker component game, played on the edge set of a d-regular graph. MAKER’s aim in this game is to build a large connected component, while BREAKER’s aim is to not let him do so. For all values of BREAKER’s bias b, we determine whether BREAKER wins (on any d-regular graph) or MAKER wins (on almost every d-regular graph) and provide explicit winning strategies for both players. To this end, we prove an extension of a theorem by Gallai–Hasse–Roy–Vitaver about graph orientations without long directed simple paths.

Best Response Games on Regular Graphs

With the growth of the internet it is becoming increasingly important to understand how the behaviour of players is affected by the topology of the network interconnecting them. Many models which involve networks of interacting players have been proposed and best response games are amongst the simplest. In best response games each vertex simultaneously updates to employ the best response to the...

The isolation game for regular graphs

Robinson, A.G. and A.J. Goldman, The isolation game for regular graphs, Discrete Mathematics 112 (1993) 173-184. In Ringeisen’s Isolation Game on a graph, two players alternately ‘switch’ at successive vertices v not previously switched: the switching operation deletes all edges incident with v, and creates new edges between t’ and those vertices not previously adjacent to it. The game is won w...

D-Spectrum and D-Energy of Complements of Iterated Line Graphs of Regular Graphs

The D-eigenvalues {µ1,…,µp} of a graph G are the eigenvalues of its distance matrix D and form its D-spectrum. The D-energy, ED(G) of G is given by ED (G) =∑i=1p |µi|. Two non cospectral graphs with respect to D are said to be D-equi energetic if they have the same D-energy. In this paper we show that if G is an r-regular graph on p vertices with 2r ≤ p - 1, then the complements of iterated lin...

Evolutionary Games of Multiplayer Cooperation on Graphs

There has been much interest in studying evolutionary games in structured populations, often modeled as graphs. However, most analytical results so far have only been obtained for two-player or linear games, while the study of more complex multiplayer games has been usually tackled by computer simulations. Here we investigate evolutionary multiplayer games on graphs updated with a Moran death-B...

Finite-State Strategies in Regular Infinite Games

Abs t rac t . This paper surveys work on the synthesis of reactive programs which implement winning strategies in infinite two-person games. The representation of such games by Muller automata and by game graphs (as introduced by McNaughton) is considered, and the construction of winning strategies is described in three stages, covering "guarantee games", "recurrence games", and generM regular ...
