Bounded-row conjecture for three-pile Sharing Nim nim-sequences

About 11 years old · traced to

For integers a≥1a\geq 1, consider the nim-sequence

(G(0,a,n))n≥a.(\mathcal{G}(0,a,n))_{n\geq a}.

Bounded-row conjecture. Given a≥1a\geq 1, the nim-sequence (G(0,a,n))n≥a(\mathcal{G}(0,a,n))_{n\geq a} is bounded.

The conjecture is based on computation and is presented as an open question about the distribution of nim-values in the rows of the table; no proof or resolution is given.
