Single-Player and Two-Player Buttons & Scissors Games
We study the computational complexity of the Buttons & Scissors game and obtain sharp thresholds with respect to several parameters. Specifically we show that the game is NP-complete for C=2 colors but polytime solvable for C=1. Similarly the game is NP-complete if every color is used by at most...
