Fast winning strategies in positional games

For the unbiased Maker-Breaker game, played on the hypergraph ${\cal H}$, let $\tau_M({\cal H})$ be the smallest integer $t$ such that Maker can win the game within $t$ moves (here we don't necessarily play until all elements of the board are claimed but stop as soon as Maker claims some winning set).

In this talk, we determine the value of $\tau_M$ for various Maker-Breaker games (focusing on connectivity).

The talk will include a short introduction on Maker-Breaker games.

Joint work with Michael Krivelevich, Miloš Stojaković and Tibor Szabó.
