Abstract

We introduce a new impartial game, named Multiple Hook Removing Game (MHRG for short). We also determine the G\mathcal{G}-values of some game positions (including the starting positions) in MHRG(m,n)(m,n), the MHRG whose starting position is the rectangular Young diagram of size m×nm\times n with the unimodal numbering. In addition, we prove that MHRG(m,n)(m,n) is isomorphic, as games, to MHRG(m,n+1)(m,n+1) (if mnm\le n and m+nm+n is even), and give a relationship between MHRG(n,n+1)(n,n+1) (and MHRG(n,n)(n,n)) and HRG(Sn)(S_n), the Hook Removing Game in terms of shifted Young diagrams.
