  • A Combinatorial Game Theoretic Analysis of Chess Endgames

    A Combinatorial Game Theoretic Analysis of Chess Endgames

    A COMBINATORIAL GAME THEORETIC ANALYSIS OF CHESS ENDGAMES QINGYUN WU, FRANK YU,¨ MICHAEL LANDRY 1. Abstract In this paper, we attempt to analyze Chess endgames using combinatorial game theory. This is a challenge, because much of combinatorial game theory applies only to games under normal play, in which players move according to a set of rules that define the game, and the last player to move wins. A game of Chess ends either in a draw (as in the game above) or when one of the players achieves checkmate. As such, the game of chess does not immediately lend itself to this type of analysis. However, we found that when we redefined certain aspects of chess, there were useful applications of the theory. (Note: We assume the reader has a knowledge of the rules of Chess prior to reading. Also, we will associate Left with white and Right with black). We first look at positions of chess involving only pawns and no kings. We treat these as combinatorial games under normal play, but with the modification that creating a passed pawn is also a win; the assumption is that promoting a pawn will ultimately lead to checkmate. Just using pawns, we have found chess positions that are equal to the games 0, 1, 2, ?, ", #, and Tiny 1. Next, we bring kings onto the chessboard and construct positions that act as game sums of the numbers and infinitesimals we found. The point is that these carefully constructed positions are games of chess played according to the rules of chess that act like sums of combinatorial games under normal play.
  • Little Chess Evaluation Compendium by Lyudmil Tsvetkov, Sofia, Bulgaria

    Little Chess Evaluation Compendium by Lyudmil Tsvetkov, Sofia, Bulgaria

    Little Chess Evaluation Compendium By Lyudmil Tsvetkov, Sofia, Bulgaria Version from 2012, an update to an original version first released in 2010 The purpose will be to give a fairly precise evaluation for all the most important terms. Some authors might find some interesting ideas. For abbreviations, p will mean pawns, cp – centipawns, if the number is not indicated it will be centipawns, mps - millipawns; b – bishop, n – knight, k- king, q – queen and r –rook. Also b will mean black and w – white. We will assume that the bishop value is 3ps, knight value – 3ps, rook value – 4.5 ps and queen value – 9ps. In brackets I will be giving purely speculative numbers for possible Elo increase if a specific function is implemented (only for the functions that might not be generally implemented). The exposition will be split in 3 parts, reflecting that opening, middlegame and endgame are very different from one another. The essence of chess in two words Chess is a game of capturing. This is the single most important thing worth considering. But in order to be able to capture well, you should consider a variety of other specific rules. The more rules you consider, the better you will be able to capture. If you consider 10 rules, you will be able to capture. If you consider 100 rules, you will be able to capture in a sufficiently good way. If you consider 1000 rules, you will be able to capture in an excellent way. The philosophy of chess Chess is a game of correlation, and not a game of fixed values.

  • Touring Problems – a Mathematical Approach

    Touring Problems – a Mathematical Approach

    TOURING PROBLEMS – A MATHEMATICAL APPROACH VIPUL NAIK Abstract. The article surveys “touring”, a problem of “fun” math, and employs serious techniques to attack it. The text is suitable for high school students interested in Olympiad mathematics, as well as undergraduate students studying combinatorics and discrete math- ematics. It can be used to introduce the concept of a graph. A sequel to this article, on a similar analysis for “tiling” problems, shall also appear soon. 1. Prebeginnings 1.1. The knight’s tour. Chess pieces, with their variously defined moves, are a rich source of puzzles in recreational mathematics. Chess puzzles include the following types : • Nonattacking pieces puzzle : Given a piece with some moves defined, place as many copies of this piece as possible so that no two can kill each other. The proto- typical example of this is the eight queens problem – placing eight queens on the chessboard so that no two can kill each other. • Board domination puzzle : Given a piece with some moves defined, place as few copies of the piece as possible so that every square is either covered by some copy or is under direct attack by a copy of the piece. • Touring puzzle : Given a piece with some moves defined, construct a tour of the entire chessboard with that piece. The only nontrivial case of this for a standard chess piece is the knight’s tour. Each of these problems revolves around a piece, with certain moves defined for that piece. Instead of standard chess pieces, we may sometimes be interested in defining chess pieces with somewhat different moves.

Resultsː After the time of applying tactical coordination exercises, the results of tests performed by the experimental groups and control groups both increased, but the experimental group’s growth was more superior than control group’s (Means of of all 6 tests were significant difference with P <0.05). It shows that the rationality and effectiveness of the tactics coordination exercises selected to be included in the chess curriculum to improve the calculating capacity for students after a period of 4 months of experiment.
