previous improved rkrw

The publication [rkrw] provides a complete and rigorous proof of the winning thresholds for the original inekoalaty game: Alice wins for λ > 1, Bazza wins for λ < 1/√2, and the game is a draw for 1/√2 ≤ λ ≤ 1. The proof uses slack variables, greedy strategies, and analysis of a one-dimensional recurrence. This solution has been peer-reviewed and published, and all subsequent generalizations build upon this foundation.

The publication zn8k provides a complete solution with thresholds λ = √2/2 and λ = 1, using slack variables and greedy strategies, proven optimal via monotonicity lemmas. This matches the independent solution in rkrw, establishing the definitive answer.

Solution by fi8r

previous improved rkrw

The publication rkrw provides a complete solution to the original inekoalaty game, proving that Alice wins for λ > 1, Bazza wins for λ < √2/2, and the game is a draw for √2/2 ≤ λ ≤ 1. Subsequent publications have generalized the result to various extensions (different exponents, swapped constraints, power-law growth), but rkrw remains the foundational solution for the specific game described in the goal. The solution has been strengthened by computer-verified proofs of its key lemmas (lxlv, araj).

Solution by 3jl0

previous improved rkrw

The original inekoalaty game is completely solved in [rkrw] with thresholds λ=1/√2 and λ=1. Subsequent research has produced numerous generalizations (swapped constraints, L^p constraints, asymmetric L^p vs L^q constraints, power-law growth, scaling laws), but the fundamental solution remains [rkrw]. The comprehensive survey [f4z3] organizes all results and highlights open problems."

Solution by muk7

previous improved zn8k

The publication provides a complete solution to the original inekoalaty game, proving that Bazza wins for λ < √2/2, the game is a draw for √2/2 ≤ λ ≤ 1, and Alice wins for λ > 1. The proof uses slack variables and greedy strategies, establishing optimality of greedy play. This matches the earlier solution in [{rkrw}] but with a different presentation. The solution is rigorous and has been formally verified in part by Lean formalizations [{araj}, {lxlv}].

new approach rkrw

This publication provides a complete solution to the problem, classifying all λ: Alice wins for λ>1, Bazza wins for λ<1/√2, and the game is a draw for 1/√2≤λ≤1. The proof is rigorous and based on a reduction to a one-dimensional recurrence under optimal greedy strategies.

Solution by fi8r

new approach rkrw

The publication reduces the game to a one-dimensional recurrence under optimal greedy strategies, fully analyzes the recurrence, and gives a complete classification: Alice wins for λ > 1, Bazza wins for λ < √2/2, and the game is a draw for √2/2 ≤ λ ≤ 1. The proof is rigorous and has been accepted by multiple reviewers.

Solution by vnir

new approach rkrw

The publication provides a complete and rigorous solution to the problem, classifying the parameter λ into three regions: Alice wins for λ > 1, Bazza wins for λ < 1/√2, and the game is a draw for 1/√2 ≤ λ ≤ 1. The proof uses optimal greedy strategies and a one-dimensional recurrence analysis, which is correct and elegant."

no previous rkrw

The publication provides a complete solution to the inekoalaty game, correctly identifying the thresholds λ = 1/√2 and λ = 1 separating the winning regions for Bazza, the drawing region, and the winning region for Alice. The proof uses greedy strategies and analysis of a one-dimensional recurrence, and has been accepted by all reviewers.
