We present two variants of Wythoff's game. The first game is a restriction of Wythoff's game in which removing tokens from the smaller pile is not allowed if the two entries are not equal. The second game is an extension of Wythoff's game…
We study the problem whether there exist variants of {\sc Wythoff}'s game whose $\P$-positions, except for a finite number, are obtained from those of {\sc Wythoff}'s game by adding a constant $k$ to each $\P$-position. We solve this…
We introduce a variant of Wythoff's Game that we call $m$-Modular Wythoff's Game. In the original Wythoff's Game, players can take a positive number of tokens from one pile, or they can take a positive number of tokens from both piles if…
In this paper, we study a variant of the classical Wythoff's game. The classical form is played with two piles of stones, from which two players take turns to remove stones from one or both piles. When removing stones from both piles, an…
Wythoff's Nim is a variant of 2-pile Nim in which players are allowed to take any positive number of stones from pile 1, or any positive number of stones from pile 2, or the same positive number from both piles. The player who makes the…
We study a variant of the classical Wythoff's game. The classical form is played with two piles of stones, from which two players take turns to remove stones from one or both piles. When removing stones from both piles, an equal number must…
Wythoff's Game is a variation of Nim in which players may take an equal number of stones from each pile or make valid Nim moves. W. A. Wythoff proved that the set of P-Positions (losing position), $C$, for Wythoff's Game is given by $C :=…
This paper describes Wythoff's game with a pass, which is a variant of the classical Wythoff's game. The classical form is played with two piles of stones, from which two players take turns to remove stones from one or both piles. When…
We study impartial take away games on 2 unordered piles of finite nonnegative numbers of tokens $(x,y)$. Two players alternate in removing at least one and at most all tokens from the respective piles, according to certain rules, and the…
Wythoff's Game is a game for two players playing alternately on two stacks of tiles. On her turn, a player can either remove a positive number of tiles from one stack, or remove an equal positive number of tiles from both stacks. The last…
We prove three conjectures of Fraenkel and Ho regarding two classes of variants of Wythoff's game. The two classes of variants of Wythoff's game feature restrictions of the diagonal moves. Each conjecture states that the Sprague-Grundy…
The 2-player impartial game of Wythoff Nim is played on two piles of tokens. A move consists in removing any number of tokens from precisely one of the piles or the same number of tokens from both piles. The winner is the player who removes…
In this paper we study a family of 2-pile Take Away games, that we denote by Generalized Diagonal Wythoff Nim (GDWN). The story begins with 2-pile Nim whose sets of options and $P$-positions are $\{\{0,t\}\mid t\in \N\}$ and $\{(t,t)\mid…
We modify Wythoff's game by allowing an additional move, which we call a "split", and show how the $P$-positions are coded by the Tribonacci word. We analyze the table of letter positions of arbitrary $k$-bonacci words and find a…
On a semi-infinite strip of squares rightward numbered $0, 1, 2, \ldots$ with at most one coin in each square, in Welter's game, two players alternately move a coin to an empty square on its left. Jumping over other coins is legal. The…
We show how the software Walnut can be used to obtain concise proofs of results concerning variants of the famous Wythoff game, in which blocking maneuvers or terminal positions are added, as discussed respectively by Larsson (2011) and…
We study a variation of the combinatorial game of 2-pile Nim. Move as in 2-pile Nim but with the following constraint: Suppose the previous player has just removed say $x>0$ tokens from the shorter pile (either pile in case they have the…
The authors introduce the impartial game of the generalized Ry\=u\=o Nim, a variant of the classical game of Wythoff Nim. In the latter game, two players take turns in moving a single queen on a large chessboard, attempting to be the first…
We introduce a new generalization of Wythoff Nim using three piles of stones. We show that its P-positions have finite difference properties and produce a partition of positive integers. Further, we give a conjecture that the P-positions…
We study a variant of 3-pile Nim in which a move consists of taking tokens from one pile and, instead of removing then, topping up on a smaller pile provided that the destination pile does not have more tokens then the source pile after the…
