A classical multi-agent fence patrolling problem asks: What is the maximum length $L$ of a line that $k$ agents with maximum speeds $v_1,\ldots,v_k$ can patrol if each point on the line needs to be visited at least once every unit of time.…

We study the Moran process as adapted by Lieberman, Hauert and Nowak. This is a model of an evolving population on a graph or digraph where certain individuals, called "mutants" have fitness r and other individuals, called non-mutants have…

A random jigsaw puzzle is constructed by arranging $n^2$ square pieces into an $n \times n$ grid and assigning to each edge of a piece one of $q$ available colours uniformly at random, with the restriction that touching edges receive the…

In a strong game played on the edge set of a graph G there are two players, Red and Blue, alternating turns in claiming previously unclaimed edges of G (with Red playing first). The winner is the first one to claim all the edges of some…
