Poset game

In combinatorial game theory, poset games are mathematical games of strategy, generalizing many well-known games such as Nim and Chomp. In such games, two players start with a poset (a partially ordered set), and take turns choosing one point in the poset, removing it and all points that are greater. The player who is left with no point to choose, loses. (Wikipedia).

By Their Powers Combined: Sudoku and LSAT // Logic Games [#20] [LSAT Analytical Reasoning]

When I teach LSAT games, one of the ways I introduce them is that they are like sudoku puzzles if you had to build your own grid every time and didn't have enough information to solve the puzzle. So I was pretty delighted when I worked the closest-to-actual-sudoku LSAT game I've ever seen.

Darij Grinberg - Noncommutative Birational Rowmotion on Rectangles

The operation of birational rowmotion on a finite poset has been a mainstay in dynamical algebraic combinatorics for the last 8 years. Since 2015, it is known that for a rectangular poset of the form [p]x[q], this operation is periodic with period p+q. (This result, as has been observed by

From an algebraic point of view, generalized persistence modules can be interpreted as finitely-generated modules for a poset algebra. We prove an algebraic analogue of the isometry theorem of Bauer and Lesnick for a large class of posets. This theorem shows that for such posets, the int
