Eventual tail conjecture for four-stack Twyst-off positions
Eventual tail conjecture for four-stack Twyst-off positions
Consider positions in Twyst-off with four stacks, written , and let a position be one from which the next player has no winning move.
Eventual tail conjecture. For every , there exist integers such that
This predicts an eventual interval of positions as the third stack grows, for a suitable fixed second stack. The statement appears after observations that remaining four-stack positions are complicated but exhibit long-run patterns; no proof or resolution is supplied.
