Two nice facts about games.
Since giving my talk last week about games, I’ve been on a bit of a mathematical gaming kick, and would like to share some of the gems I’ve come across. We’ll give a beautiful argument due to Gale about his game Chomp, and an exceedingly clever argument due to Hochberg, McDiarmid, and Saks which applies Sperner’s lemma to the Game of Y.
