We investigate the transfinite game values arising in infinite chess, providing both upper and lower bounds on the supremum of these values---the omega one of chess---with two senses depending on whether one considers only finite positions or also positions with infinitely many pieces. For lower bounds, we present specific infinite positions with transfinite game values of omega, omega^2, omega^2 times k, and omega^3. By embedding trees into chess, we show that there is a computable infinite chess position that is a win for white if the players are required to play according to a deterministic computable strategy, but which is a draw without that restriction. Finally, we prove that every countable ordinal arises as the game value of a position in infinite three-dimensional chess, and consequently the omega one of infinite three-dimensional chess is as large as it can be, namely, true omega one.
We present a position in infinite chess exhibiting an ordinal game value of $omega^4$, thereby improving on the previously largest-known values of $omega^3$ and $omega^3cdot 4$.
A traversal of a connected graph is a linear ordering of its vertices all of whose initial segments induce connected subgraphs. Traversals, and their refinements such as breadth-first and depth-first traversals, are computed by various graph searchin
N. Hindman, I. Leader and D. Strauss proved that it is consistent that there is a finite colouring of $mathbb R$ so that no infinite sumset $X+X={x+y:x,yin X}$ is monochromatic. Our aim in this paper is to prove a consistency result in the opposite d
This article discusses some recent trends in Ramsey theory on infinite structures. Trees and their Ramsey theory have been vital to these investigations. The main ideas behind the authors recent method of trees with coding nodes are presented, showin
We study new relations of the following statements with weak choice principles in ZF and ZFA. 1. For every infinite set X, there exists a permutation of X without fixed points. 2. There is no Hausdorff space X such that every infinite subset of X con
