The connected greedy coloring game

CVGC Lima, T Marcilon, N Martins… - Theoretical Computer …, 2023 - Elsevier
In 2020, Costa et al. answered a long-standing open question, proposed by Bodlaender in
1991: the graph coloring game is PSPACE-complete. They also proved that the greedy …

The maker-breaker largest connected subgraph game

J Bensmail, F Fioravantes, F Mc Inerney… - Theoretical Computer …, 2023 - Elsevier
Given a graph G and k∈ N, we introduce the following game played in G. Each round, Alice
colours an uncoloured vertex of G red, and then Bob colours one blue (if any remain). Once …

Maker-Breaker is solved in polynomial time on hypergraphs of rank 3

F Galliot, S Gravier, I Sivignon - arXiv preprint arXiv:2209.12819, 2022 - arxiv.org
In the Maker-Breaker positional game, Maker and Breaker take turns picking vertices of a
hypergraph $ H $, and Maker wins if and only if he claims all the vertices of some edge of …

Avoidance games are PSPACE-complete

V Gledel, N Oijid - arXiv preprint arXiv:2209.11698, 2022 - arxiv.org
Avoidance games are games in which two players claim vertices of a hypergraph and try to
avoid some structures. These games are studied since the introduction of the game of SIM in …

The Maker–Maker domination game in forests

E Duchêne, A Dumas, N Oijid, A Parreau… - Discrete Applied …, 2024 - Elsevier
Abstract We study the Maker–Maker version of the domination game introduced in 2018 by
Duchêne et al. Given a graph, two players alternately claim vertices. The first player to claim …

Complexity of maker-breaker games on edge sets of graphs

E Duchene, V Gledel, FM Inerney, N Nisse… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
We initiate the study of the algorithmic complexity of Maker-Breaker games played on the
edge sets of general graphs. We mainly consider the perfect matching game and the $ H …

On the complexity of Client-Waiter and Waiter-Client games

V Gledel, N Oijid, S Tavenas, S Thomassé - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Positional games were introduced by Hales and Jewett in 1963, and their study became
more popular after Erdos and Selfridge's first result on their connection to Ramsey theory …

Incidence, a scoring positional game on graphs

G Bagan, Q Deschamps, E Duchêne, B Durain… - Discrete …, 2024 - Elsevier
Positional games have been introduced by Hales and Jewett in 1963 and have been
extensively investigated in the literature since then. These games are played on a …

Maker-Breaker resolving game played on corona products of graphs

T James, S Klavžar, D Kuziak, A Vijayakumar - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
The Maker-Breaker resolving game is a game played on a graph $ G $ by Resolver and
Spoiler. The players taking turns alternately in which each player selects a not yet played …

Maker-Breaker domination game played on corona products of graphs

A Divakaran, T James, S Klavžar, LS Nair - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
In the Maker-Breaker domination game, Dominator and Staller play on a graph $ G $ by
taking turns in which each player selects a not yet played vertex of $ G $. Dominator's goal is …
