Two players, Maker and Breaker claim unclaimed edges of $G$ in turns, and Maker wins if by the end of the game she claims all the edges of a pre-defined goal tournament. Given a tournament $T_k$ on $k$ vertices, we determine the threshold bias for the $(1:b)$ $T_k$-tournament game on $K_n$. We also look at the $(1:1)$ $T_k$-tournament game played on the edge set of a random graph ${\\mathcal{G}_{n,p}}$ and determine the threshold probability for Maker's win. We compare these games with the clique game and discuss whether a random graph intuition is satisfied.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-03-10T12:42:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "edge set", "breaker claim unclaimed edges", "random graph intuition", "maker-breaker tournament game", "maker wins" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150302885C" } } }
