The nonassociative loop-switch strategy conjecture
The nonassociative loop-switch strategy conjecture
Let be the smallest loop that is not a group, with multiplication operation . Loop-switch strategy conjecture. There exists a nontrivial adversarial group such that the generalized spinning switches puzzle with switches behaving like has a winning strategy for the puzzle-solver. This asks whether the group-based framework extends to nonassociative switches; the source introduces it as an open question and gives no candidate group .
