A Winning Strategy for the Ramsey Graph Game



Author: Aleksandar Pekec

ABSTRACT

We consider a "Maker-Breaker" version of the Ramsey Graph Game, RG(n), and present a winning strategy for maker requiring less than n(2^n) moves. This is the fastest winning strategy known so far. We also demonstrate how the ideas presented can be used to develop winning strategies for some related combinatorial games.
