Combinatorial game theory (CGT) is a branch of mathematics and theoretical computer science that typically studies sequential games with perfect information. Study has been largely confined to two-player games that have a position in which the players take turns changing in defined ways or moves to achieve a defined winning condition. CGT has not traditionally studied games of chance or those that use imperfect or incomplete information, favoring games that offer perfect information in which the state of the game and the set of available moves is always known by both players. However, as mathematical techniques advance, the types of game that can be mathematically analyzed expands, thus the boundaries of the field are ever changing. Scholars will generally define what they mean by a "game" at the beginning of a paper, and these definitions often vary as they are specific to the game being analyzed and are not meant to represent the entire scope of the field.

组合博弈论是数学和理论计算机科学的一个分支，主要研究具有完美信息的序贯博弈。研究很大程度上局限于双人游戏，在这种游戏中，玩家轮流以规定的方式或动作来达到规定的制胜条件。CGT传统上并不研究机会博弈，也不研究那些使用不完美或不完整信息的博弈，而是倾向于那些提供完全信息的博弈，在这种博弈中，双方都知道博弈的状态和可用的招数。然而，随着数学技术的进步，可以用数学方法分析的游戏类型不断扩展，因此领域的边界也在不断变化。学者们通常会在论文的开头定义他们所说的“游戏”的含义，这些定义通常因所分析的游戏而异，并不代表整个领域。
Combinatorial games include well-known games such as chess, checkers, and Go, which are regarded as non-trivial, and tic-tac-toe, which is considered as trivial in the sense of being "easy to solve". Some combinatorial games may also have an unbounded playing area, such as infinite chess. In CGT, the moves in these and other games are represented as a game tree.

组合游戏包括著名的游戏，如国际象棋、西洋跳棋和围棋，这些游戏被认为是非常重要的，还有井字棋，这些游戏被认为是微不足道的，因为它们“很容易解决”。一些组合游戏也可能有一个无限的游戏区域，如无限国际象棋。在 CGT 中，这些和其他游戏中的步骤被表示为一个博弈树。
Combinatorial games also include one-player combinatorial puzzles such as Sudoku, and no-player automata, such as Conway's Game of Life, (although in the strictest definition, "games" can be said to require more than one participant, thus the designations of "puzzle" and "automata".)

组合游戏还包括单人组合游戏，如数独游戏，以及无玩家自动机，如康威的生命游戏(虽然在最严格的定义中，“游戏”可以说需要不止一个参与者，因此命名为“拼图”和“自动机”。)
Game theory in general includes games of chance, games of imperfect knowledge, and games in which players can move simultaneously, and they tend to represent real-life decision making situations.

博弈论通常包括机会博弈、不完全知识博弈和参与者可以同时移动的博弈，它们往往代表现实生活中的决策情况。
CGT has a different emphasis than "traditional" or "economic" game theory, which was initially developed to study games with simple combinatorial structure, but with elements of chance (although it also considers sequential moves, see extensive-form game). Essentially, CGT has contributed new methods for analyzing game trees, for example using surreal numbers, which are a subclass of all two-player perfect-information games. The type of games studied by CGT is also of interest in artificial intelligence, particularly for automated planning and scheduling. In CGT there has been less emphasis on refining practical search algorithms (such as the alpha–beta pruning heuristic included in most artificial intelligence textbooks), but more emphasis on descriptive theoretical results (such as measures of game complexity or proofs of optimal solution existence without necessarily specifying an algorithm, such as the strategy-stealing argument).

CGT与“传统”或“经济”博弈论的重点不同，后者最初是研究具有简单组合结构但具有机会元素的博弈的（尽管它也考虑了顺序移动，请参阅扩展形式的博弈)。本质上，CGT 提供了分析博弈树的新方法，例如使用超现实数字，它是所有两人完全信息博弈的一个子类。CGT研究的游戏类型在人工智能中也很受关注，特别是在自动计划和调度方面。在CGT中，很少强调改进实用的搜索算法(例如大多数人工智能教科书中包含的 alpha-beta剪枝算法) ，而更多强调描述性的理论结果(例如对策复杂性的度量或最优解存在性的证明，而无需指定算法，例如策略窃取论点)。
An important notion in CGT is that of the solved game. For example, tic-tac-toe is considered a solved game, as it can be proven that any game will result in a draw if both players play optimally. Deriving similar results for games with rich combinatorial structures is difficult. For instance, in 2007 it was announced that checkers has been weakly solved—optimal play by both sides also leads to a draw—but this result was a computer-assisted proof. Other real world games are mostly too complicated to allow complete analysis today, although the theory has had some recent successes in analyzing Go endgames. Applying CGT to a position attempts to determine the optimum sequence of moves for both players until the game ends, and by doing so discover the optimum move in any position. In practice, this process is torturously difficult unless the game is very simple.

Cgt 中的一个重要概念是求解对策。例如，井字游戏被认为是一个解决的游戏，因为它可以证明，任何游戏都会导致平局，如果双方玩家发挥最佳。对于具有丰富组合结构的对策，获得相似的结果是困难的。例如，在2007年，有人宣布西洋跳棋一直没有得到很好的解决---- 双方的最佳玩法也会导致平局---- 但这个结果是一个电脑协助证明。其他现实世界中的游戏大多过于复杂，无法进行完整的分析，尽管该理论最近在分析围棋终局游戏方面取得了一些成功。将 CGT 应用到一个位置，试图确定两个玩家的最佳移动顺序，直到游戏结束，并通过这样做，发现在任何位置的最佳移动。在实践中，除非游戏非常简单，否则这个过程非常困难。

It can be helpful to distinguish between combinatorial "mathgames" of interest primarily to mathematicians and scientists to ponder and solve, and combinatorial "playgames" of interest to the general population as a form of entertainment and competition. However, a number of games fall into both categories. Nim, for instance, is a playgame instrumental in the foundation of CGT, and one of the first computerized games. Tic-tac-toe is still used to teach basic principles of game AI design to computer science students.

历史
CGT arose in relation to the theory of [[impartial game]]s, in which any play available to one player must be available to the other as well. One such game is [[nim]], which can be solved completely. Nim is an impartial game for two players, and subject to the ''normal play condition'', which means that a player who cannot move loses. In the 1930s, the [[Sprague–Grundy theorem]] showed that all impartial games are equivalent to heaps in nim, thus showing that major unifications are possible in games considered at a [[combinatorial]] level, in which detailed strategies matter, not just pay-offs.

CGT的产生与公正博弈理论有关，在这个理论中，一个玩家可用的任何比赛必须对另一个球员也可用。尼姆就是这样一种游戏，它可以完全解决。尼姆是一款适用于两名玩家的公正游戏，受到正常游戏条件的限制，这意味着不能移动的玩家就是输家。在20世纪30年代，Sprague-Grundy 定理表明，所有公正的游戏都等价于尼姆游戏，这表明在组合层次上考虑的游戏可能具有重大的统一性，在这种情况下，详细的策略很重要，而不仅仅是收益。
In the 1960s, Elwyn R. Berlekamp, John H. Conway and Richard K. Guy jointly introduced the theory of a partisan game, in which the requirement that a play available to one player be available to both is relaxed. Their results were published in their book Winning Ways for your Mathematical Plays in 1982. However, the first work published on the subject was Conway's 1976 book On Numbers and Games, also known as ONAG, which introduced the concept of surreal numbers and the generalization to games. On Numbers and Games was also a fruit of the collaboration between Berlekamp, Conway, and Guy.

在20世纪60年代，埃尔温·伯利坎普Elwyn R. Berlekamp，约翰·h·康威。 John h. Conway 和 理查德·盖伊 Richard k. Guy 共同提出了一个党派博弈理论，在这个理论中，放宽了一个游戏可供两个玩家使用的要求。他们的研究结果发表在1982年的《数学游戏的获胜方法》一书中。但是，关于这一主题的第一部著作是Conway于1976年出版的《数与游戏》（也称为ONAG），该书引入了超现实数的概念以及对游戏。《数字与游戏》也是Berlekamp，Conway和Guy之间合作的成果。
Combinatorial games are generally, by convention, put into a form where one player wins when the other has no moves remaining. It is easy to convert any finite game with only two possible results into an equivalent one where this convention applies. One of the most important concepts in the theory of combinatorial games is that of the sum of two games, which is a game where each player may choose to move either in one game or the other at any point in the game, and a player wins when his opponent has no move in either game. This way of combining games leads to a rich and powerful mathematical structure.

按照惯例，组合游戏通常是一种形式，即一个玩家在另一方没有剩余移动时获胜。将只有两个可能结果的任何有限博弈转换为适用此约定的等效博弈是很容易的。组合博弈理论中最重要的概念之一是两个博弈之和，即每个玩家可以选择在一个博弈中或另一个博弈中的任何一个时刻移动，当对手在其中任何一个博弈中没有移动时，玩家获胜。这种组合游戏的方式导致了丰富而强大的数学结构。
John Conway states in ONAG that the inspiration for the theory of partisan games was based on his observation of the play in go endgames, which can often be decomposed into sums of simpler endgames isolated from each other in different parts of the board.
