Remarks on strategies in combinatorial games

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 1985
Viewing strategies in combinatorial games as a relation \(S\subset X\times X\) where X is the set of states (instead of a mapping \(S: X\to X)\) the authors give: 1) a very short proof of the existence of a loss-preventing strategy, 2) a proof of the existence of a winning strategy without the axiom of choice, and 3) a proof of the theorem on the value

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

Playing cards: spatial arrangements for observational learning

open access: yesPsychology of Language and Communication, 2018
This paper looks at how players of a card game create spatial arrangements of playing cards, and the cognitive and communicative effects of such arrangements.

An O(n)-Round Strategy for the Magnus-Derek Game

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2010
We analyze further the Magnus-Derek game, a two-player game played on a round table with n positions. The players jointly control the movement of a token. One player, Magnus, aims to maximize the number of positions visited while minimizing the number of

“Electromagnetic barrier” assisted dynamic spectrum access in satellite internet communication confrontation

open access: yesIET Communications, 2022
In this paper, the dynamic spectrum access is investigated in satellite internet. Firstly, to describe the confrontation characteristics of the electromagnetic environment, two opposing teams denoted as the blue team (BT) and red team (RT), are designed.

Solving Probabilistic Combinatorial Games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Probabilistic combinatorial games (PCGs) are a model for Go-like games recently introduced by Ken Chen. They differ from normal combinatorial games since terminal positions in each subgame are evaluated by a probability distribution. The distribution expresses the uncertainty in the local evaluation.

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Universally Balanced Combinatorial Optimization Games [PDF]

open access: yesGames, 2010
This article surveys studies on universally balanced properties of cooperative games defined in a succinct form. In particular, we focus on combinatorial optimization games in which the values to coalitions are defined through linear optimization programs, possibly combinatorial, that is subject to integer constraints. In economic settings, the integer

Combinatorial Game Distributions of Steiner Systems [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2021
The $P$-position sets of some combinatorial games have special combinatorial structures. For example, the $P$-position set of the hexad game, first investigated by Conway and Ryba, is the block set of the Steiner system $S(5, 6, 12)$ in the shuffle numbering, denoted by $D_{\text{sh}}$.
