Stone Game IV

Two players play a game with a single pile of stones of initial size n. They take stones from the pile in turn, according to the following rules which depend on a fixed real number r>0:

  • In the first turn, the first player may take k stones with 1k<n.
  • If a player takes m stones in a turn, then in the next turn the opponent may take k stones with 1krm.

Whoever cannot make a legal move loses the game.

Let L(r) be the set of initial pile sizes n for which the second player has a winning strategy. For example, L(0.5)={1}, L(1)={1,2,4,8,16,}, L(2)={1,2,3,5,8,}.

A real number q>0 is a transition value if L(s) is different from L(t) for all s<q<t.

Let T(i) be the i-th transition value. For example, T(1)=1, T(2)=2, T(22)6.3043478261.

Find T(123456) and give your answer rounded to 10 digits after the decimal point.


取石子游戏(四)

两位玩家正在玩一个游戏,游戏开始时有一堆共n枚石子。两位玩家轮流从堆中取走石子,但必须遵循以下基于固定实数r>0的规则:

  • 在第一轮中,先手玩家可以取走的石子数k需满足1k<n
  • 如果一名玩家在某一轮取走m枚石子,则下一轮其对手可以取走的石子数k需满足1krm

首先无法行动的玩家输掉游戏。

L(r)为使得后手玩家有必胜策略的石子数n所构成的集合。例如,L(0.5)={1}L(1)={1,2,4,8,16,}L(2)={1,2,3,5,8,}

考虑实数q>0,若对于任意s<q<t均满足L(s)不等于L(t),则称其为过渡值
T(i)为第i个过渡值。例如,T(1)=1T(2)=2T(22)6.3043478261

T(123456),并四舍五入保留10位小数作为你的答案。
