A set of vertices $W$ of a graph $G$ is a resolving set if every vertex of $G$ is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to $W$. In this paper, the Maker-Breaker resolving game is introduced. The game is played on a graph $G$ by…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V$. A set $S \subseteq V$ is a \emph{strong resolving set} of $G$ if, for distinct $x,y\in V$, there exists $z\in S$ such that either $x$ lies on a $y-z$ geodesic or $y$ lies on an $x-z$ geodesic in $G$.…

The Maker-Breaker domination game is played on a graph $G$ by two players, called Dominator and Staller. They alternately select an unplayed vertex in $G$. Dominator wins the game if he forms a dominating set while Staller wins the game if…

Let $d(x,y)$ denote the length of a shortest path between vertices $x$ and $y$ in a graph $G$ with vertex set $V$. For a positive integer $k$, let $d_k(x,y)=\min\{d(x,y), k+1\}$ and $R_k\{x,y\}=\{z\in V: d_k(x,z) \neq d_k(y,z)\}$. A set $S…

Maker-Breaker games are played on a hypergraph $(X,\mathcal{F})$, where $\mathcal{F} \subseteq 2^X$ denotes the family of winning sets. Both players alternately claim a predefined amount of edges (called bias) from the board $X$, and Maker…

We investigate a game played between two players, Maker and Breaker, on a countably infinite complete graph where the vertices are the rational numbers. The players alternately claim unclaimed edges. It is Maker's goal to have after…

We introduce the Maker-Breaker domination game, a two player game on a graph. At his turn, the first player, Dominator, select a vertex in order to dominate the graph while the other player, Staller, forbids a vertex to Dominator in order…

In the Maker-Breaker domination game played on a graph $G$, Dominator's goal is to select a dominating set and Staller's goal is to claim a closed neighborhood of some vertex. We study the cases when Staller can win the game. If Dominator…

We introduce and analyze the Walker-Breaker game, a variant of Maker-Breaker games where Maker is constrained to choose edges of a walk or path in a given graph G, with the goal of visiting as many vertices of the underlying graph as…

In a Maker-Breaker game on a graph $G$, Breaker and Maker alternately claim edges of $G$. Maker wins if, after all edges have been claimed, the graph induced by his edges has some desired property. We consider four Maker-Breaker games…
