Game values of arithmetic functions

Number Theory 2021-07-06 v3 Discrete Mathematics Combinatorics

Abstract

Arithmetic functions in Number Theory meet the Sprague-Grundy function from Combinatorial Game Theory. We study a variety of 2-player games induced by standard arithmetic functions, such as Euclidian division, divisors, remainders and relatively prime numbers, and their negations.
