Period-2m2m conjecture for arithmetic-progression Max-Welter positions

About 14 years old · traced to

Let a≥0a\geq 0, m≥1m\geq 1, and k≥1k\geq 1. Then the sequence

{G(a+i,a+m+i,…,a+km+i)}i≥0\{\mathcal{G}(a+i,a+m+i,\ldots,a+km+i)\}_{i\geq 0}

is ultimately periodic with period p=2mp=2m. This conjectures periodicity of the Sprague–Grundy values for positions whose coordinates form an arithmetic progression with common difference mm.
