Bridg-it by David Gale

Bridg-it on Graphs Two players and alternately claim edges from the blue and the red lattice respectively. Edges must not cross. Objective: build a bridge 1: connect left and right 2: connect bottom and top Who wins Bridg-it?

Who wins Bridg-it? Theorem The player who makes the first move wins Bridg-it. Proof (Strategy stealing) Suppose Player 2 has a winning strategy. Player 1’s first move is arbitrary. Then Player 1 pretends to be Player 2 by playing his strategy. (Note: here we use that the field is symmetric!) Hence, Player 1 wins, which contradicts our assumption.

How does Player 1 win?

The Tool for Player 1 Proposition Suppose T and T’ are spanning trees of a connected graph G and e 2 E(T) n E(T’). Then there exists an edge e’ 2 E(T’) n E(T) such that T – e + e’ is a spanning tree of G.
