Game values of arithmetic functions
-
Douglas E. Iannucci
Abstract
Arithmetic functions in number theory meet the Sprague-Grundy function from combinatorial game theory. We study a variety of two-player games induced by standard arithmetic functions, such as Euclidian division, divisors, remainders and relatively prime numbers, and their negations.
