Large Peg-Army Maneuvers
Luciano Gualà ; Stefano Leucci ; Emanuele Natale ; Roberto Tauraso ;
Date 2 Mar 2016
AbstractDespite its long history, the classical game of peg solitaire continues to attract the attention of the scientific community. In this paper, we consider two problems with an algorithmic flavour which are related with this game, namely Solitaire-Reachability and Solitaire-Army. In the first one, we show that deciding whether there is a sequence of jumps which allows a given initial configuration of pegs to reach a target position is NP-complete. Regarding Solitaire-Army, the aim is to successfully deploy an army of pegs in a given region of the board in order to reach a target position. By solving an auxiliary problem with relaxed constraints, we are able to answer some open questions raised by Cs’ak’any and Juh’asz (Mathematics Magazine, 2000).
