  • Optimal strategies in fractional games: vertex cover and domination
    Bujtás, Csilla ; Rote, Günter ; Tuza, Zsolt
    In a hypergraph ▫${\cal H}=(V,{\cal E})$▫ with vertex set ▫$V$▫ and edge set ▫${\cal E}$▫, a real-valued function ▫$f: V \to [0, 1]$▫ is a fractional transversal if ▫$\sum_{v\in E} f(v) \ge 1$▫ for ... every edge ▫$E \in {\cal E}$▫. Its size is ▫$|f| := \sum_{v \in V} f(v)$▫, and the fractional transversal number ▫$\tau^\ast({\cal H})$▫ is the smallest possible ▫$|f|$▫. We consider a game scenario where two players have opposite goals, one of them trying to minimize and the other to maximize the size of a fractional transversal constructed incrementally. We prove that both players have strategies to achieve their common optimum, and they can reach their goals using rational weights.
