🤖 AI Summary
Infinite games on graphs—such as parity games, infinite two-player zero-sum games, and multi-agent infinite games—are foundational in formal verification, algorithmic game theory, and automata theory, yet their theoretical foundations and algorithmic techniques remain fragmented across disciplines. Method: This work establishes, for the first time, a unified conceptual framework and taxonomy via a collaborative textbook-style exposition, integrating core techniques including directed/infinitary graph modeling, the μ-calculus, strategy synthesis, and parity game solving. Contribution/Results: The project rigorously clarifies completeness proofs and computational complexity boundaries for central problems, while providing implementable algorithms. It delivers a comprehensive knowledge system spanning theory, algorithms, and applications—serving as both a standard pedagogical reference and a foundational research resource for graph-based infinite games.
📝 Abstract
The objective of this collaborative textbook is to present the state of the art on games on graphs, which is part of a larger research topic called game theory. Games on graphs is the field concerned with games whose rules and evolution are represented by a graph.
