Title of Talk
AbstractI conducted research in the summer of 2006 dealing with the game of Hex, the two player combinatorial game developed independently by Piet Hein and John Nash. I wanted to know if modifying the game board by removing available playing spaces would effect the outcome of the game. I analyzed a 3x3 size board, then a 5x5 board, and some preliminary work on a 7x7 board.
