Abstract

Kopczyński (ICALP 2006) conjectured that prefix-independent half-positional winning conditions are closed under finite unions. We refute this conjecture over finite arenas. For that, we introduce a new class of prefix-independent bi-positional winning conditions called energy conditions over totally ordered groups. We give an example of two such conditions whose union is not half-positional. We also conjecture that every prefix-independent bi-positional winning condition coincides with some energy condition over a totally ordered group on periodic sequences.
