Binary dicots, a core of dicot games

Combinatorics 2014-05-14 v1

Abstract

We study combinatorial games under mis\`ere convention. Several sets of games have been considered earlier to better understand the behaviour of mis\`ere games. We here connect several of these sets. In particular, we prove that comparison modulo binary dicot games is often the same as comparison modulo dicot games, and that equivalence modulo dicot games and modulo impartial games are the same when they are restricted to impartial games.
