The Explorer-Director game, first introduced by Nedev and Muthukrishnan, can be described as a game where two players—Explorer and Director—determine the movement of a token that is positioned on the vertices of some given graph. At each time step, the Explorer specifies a distance that the token must move with an aim to maximize the total number of vertices ultimately visited. However, the Director adversarially chooses where to move token in an effort to minimize this number. The game ends when no new vertices can be visited. Given a graph G and a starting vertex v, the number of vertices …

Advice For Undergraduates On Special Aspects Of Writing Mathematics, Stephen B. Maurer
Advice For Undergraduates On Special Aspects Of Writing Mathematics, Stephen B. Maurer
Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Works
There are several guides to good mathematical writing for professionals, but few for undergraduates. Yet undergraduates who write mathematics papers need special guidance. For instance, professionals may need help writing clear definitions, but at least they know why explicit definitions are needed and know the basic format. In general, mathematics has many special formats that are not mere technical conventions but instead serve important purposes. Often students are not conscious of these conventions, and they rarely know their purposes. This paper contains a guide for students written in light of these observations.

An Interview With Albert W. Tucker, Stephen B. Maurer, A. W. Tucker
Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Works
The mathematical career of Albert W. Tucker, Professor Emeritus at Princeton University, spans more than 50 years. Best known today for his work in mathematical programming and the theory of games (e.g., the Kuhn-Tucker theorem, Tucker tableaux, and the Prisoner's Dilemma), he was also in his earlier years prominent in topology. Outstanding teacher, administrator and leader, he has been President of the MAA, Chairman of the Princeton Mathematics Department, and course instructor, thesis advisor or general mentor to scores of active mathematicians. He is also known for his views on mathematics education and the proper interplay between teaching and research. …
