The Penney's Game with Group Action

Abstract Consider equipping an alphabet $$\mathcal {A}$$ A with a group action which partitions the set of words into equivalence classes which we call patterns. We answer standard questions for Penney's game on patterns and show non-transitivity for the game on patterns as the length of the pa...

520 |a Abstract Consider equipping an alphabet $$\mathcal {A}$$ A with a group action which partitions the set of words into equivalence classes which we call patterns. We answer standard questions for Penney's game on patterns and show non-transitivity for the game on patterns as the length of the pattern tends to infinity. We also analyze bounds on the pattern-based Conway leading number and expected wait time, and further explore the game under the cyclic and symmetric group actions.
