It isn't that GMs are calculating 50 moves ahead, they just know more endings then you do -- so not only are their decisions in the endgame better, but you almost never reach a relatively equal one with a stronger player because they were making better Middlegame moves based on their knowledge of the ensuing ending.

  • 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.

  • Multilinear Algebra and Chess Endgames

    Multilinear Algebra and Chess Endgames

    Games of No Chance MSRI Publications Volume 29, 1996 Multilinear Algebra and Chess Endgames LEWIS STILLER Abstract. This article has three chief aims: (1) To show the wide utility of multilinear algebraic formalism for high-performance computing. (2) To describe an application of this formalism in the analysis of chess endgames, and results obtained thereby that would have been impossible to compute using earlier techniques, including a win requiring a record 243 moves. (3) To contribute to the study of the history of chess endgames, by focusing on the work of Friedrich Amelung (in particular his apparently lost analysis of certain six-piece endgames) and that of Theodor Molien, one of the founders of modern group representation theory and the first person to have systematically numerically analyzed a pawnless endgame. 1. Introduction Parallel and vector architectures can achieve high peak bandwidth, but it can be difficult for the programmer to design algorithms that exploit this bandwidth efficiently. Application performance can depend heavily on unique architecture features that complicate the design of portable code [Szymanski et al. 1994; Stone 1993]. The work reported here is part of a project to explore the extent to which the techniques of multilinear algebra can be used to simplify the design of high- performance parallel and vector algorithms [Johnson et al. 1991]. The approach is this: Define a set of fixed, structured matrices that encode architectural primitives • of the machine, in the sense that left-multiplication of a vector by this matrix is efficient on the target architecture. Formulate the application problem as a matrix multiplication.

    Chess Endgames: 6-Man Data and Strategy

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Central Archive at the University of Reading Chess endgames: 6-man data and strategy M.S. Bourzutschky, J.A. Tamplin, and G.McC. Haworth [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]; http:// http://www.jaet.org/jat/ Abstract While Nalimov’s endgame tables for Western Chess are the most used today, their Depth-to-Mate metric is not the most efficient or effective in use. The authors have developed and used new programs to create tables to alternative metrics and recommend better strategies for endgame play. Key words: chess: conversion, data, depth, endgame, goal, move count, statistics, strategy 1 Introduction Chess endgames tables (EGTs) to the ‘DTM’ Depth to Mate metric are the most commonly used, thanks to codes and production work by Nalimov [10,7]. DTM data is of interest in itself, even if conversion, i.e., change of force, is more often adopted as an interim objective in human play. However, more effective endgame strategies using different metrics can be adopted, particularly by computers [3,4]. A further practical disadvantage of the DTM metric is that, as maxDTM increases, the EGTs take longer to generate and are less compressible. 1 2 Here, we focus on metrics DTC, DTZ and DTZ50 ; the first two were effectively used by Thompson [19], Stiller [14], and Wirth [20]. New programs by Tamplin [15] and Bourzutschky [2] have already enabled a complete suite of 3-to-5-man DTC/Z/Z50 EGTs to be produced [18]. This note is an update, focusing solely on Tamplin’s continuing work, assisted by Bourzutschky, with the latter code on 6-man, pawnless endgames for which DTC ≡ DTZ and DTC50 ≡ DTZ50.
