Abstract

In an amalgamation Nim, players are allowed to use a move from the traditional form of Nim or to amalgamate two piles when they are not empty. No formula that describes the set of P-positions of Amalgamation Nim is known. The author gives a condition on the amalgamation of two piles. Players can amalgamate two piles only when the number of stones in these two piles is equal to or more than 2. Then, we get a formula that describes the set of P-positions for this variant of amalgamation Nim.
