KomiUpperBound

• Let the board be a square on a Cartesian plane
• Let N be the length of of the square's edge

Table of contents N squared as a starting point N squared is too high if white can always live

N squared as a starting point

Arno: The proof for the upper bound goes something like this: if Black starts and White plays no move, Black can win by at most N squared points because no captures have occurred. Thus the upper bound for komi is N squared, otherwise White would always win.

N squared is too high if white can always live

togo: There is a very easy way to lower the upper bound, Evand already presented it: Prove the possibility of a living group for White.
