By adapting techniques of Arhangel'skii, Barman, and Dow, we may equate the existence of perfect-information, Markov, and tactical strategies between two interesting selection games. These results shed some light on Gruenhage's question…

Game-theoretic characterizations of selection principles provide a powerful framework for analyzing covering properties through strategic interactions. For a Tychonoff space $X$ and a non-trivial metrizable arc-connected topological group…

A separable space is strongly sequentially separable if, for each countable dense set, every point in the space is a limit of a sequence from the dense set. We consider this and related properties, for the spaces of continous and Borel…

The two main results of this work are the following: if a space $X$ is such that player II has a winning strategy in the game $\gone(\Omega_x, \Omega_x)$ for every $x \in X$, then $X$ is productively countably tight. On the other hand, if a…

We study two form of selective selective separability, $SS$ and $SS^+$, on countable spaces with an analytic topology. We show several Ramsey type properties which imply $SS$. For analytic spaces $X$, $SS^+$ is equivalent to have that the…

In this note we study the open-point topological games in order to analyze the least upper bound for density of dense subsets of a topological space. This way we may also analyze the behavior of such cardinal invariants in taking products…

Topological Ramsey theory studies a class of combinatorial topological spaces, known as topological Ramsey spaces, unifying the essential features of those combinatorial frames where the Ramsey property is equivalent to the Baire property.…

For a topological space $X$ and a point $x \in X$, consider the following game -- related to the property of $X$ being countably tight at $x$. In each inning $n\in\omega$, the first player chooses a set $A_n$ that clusters at $x$, and then…

A space $X$ is called selectively separable(R-separable) if for every sequence of dense subspaces $(D_n : n\in\omega)$ one can pick finite (respectively, one-point) subsets $F_n\subset D_n$ such that $\bigcup_{n\in\omega}F_n$ is dense in…

For a Tychonoff space $X$, we denote by $(C(X), \tau_k, \tau_p)$ the bitopological space of all real-valued continuous functions on $X$ where $\tau_k$ is the compact-open topology and $\tau_p$ is the topology of pointwise convergence. In…

Let S be a topological property of sequences (such as, for example, "to contain a convergent subsequence" or "to have an accumulation point"). We introduce the following open-point game OP(X,S) on a topological space X. In the n'th move,…

We consider two-player stochastic games played on a finite state space for an infinite number of rounds. The games are concurrent: in each round, the two players (player 1 and player 2) choose their moves independently and simultaneously;…

In this paper, we prove the following Theorems 1. An extremally disconnected space $X$ has the semi-Menger property if and only if One does not have a winning strategy in the game $G_{fin}(sO,sO)$. 2. An extremally disconnected space $X$…

We study Recursive Concurrent Stochastic Games (RCSGs), extending our recent analysis of recursive simple stochastic games to a concurrent setting where the two players choose moves simultaneously and independently at each state. For…

We present the notion of separable game with respect to a forward directed hypergraph (FDH-graph), which refines and generalizes that of graphical game. First, we show that there exists a minimal FDH-graph with respect to which a game is…

We introduce natural strengthenings of sequential compactness called the $r$-Ramsey property for each natural number $r\geq 1$. We prove that metrizable compact spaces are $r$-Ramsey for all $r$ and give examples of compact spaces that are…

We present a general way of defining various reduction games on \omega\ which "represent" corresponding topologically defined classes of functions. In particular, we will show how to construct games for piecewise defined functions, for…

We apply the theory of infinite two-person games to two well-known problems in topology: Suslin's Problem and Arhangel'skii's problem on $G_\delta$ covers of compact spaces. More specifically, we prove results of which the following two are…

We add to the theory of preservation of topological properties under forcing. In particular, we answer a question of Gilton and Holshouser in a strong sense, showing that if player II has a winning strategy in the strong countable fan…

We relate the property of discrete selectivity and its corresponding game, both recently introduced by V.V. Tkachuck, to a variety of selection principles and point picking games. In particular we show that player II can win the discrete…
