Abstract:Abstract-We simulate the motions of Physarum polycephalum plasmodium by the game of Go, the board game originated in ancient China more than 2,500 years ago. Then we concentrate just on Go games, where locations of black and white stones simulate syllogistic reasoning, in particular reasoning of Aristotelian syllogistic and reasoning of performative syllogistic. For the first kind of reasoning we need a special form of coalition games. For the second kind of reasoning we appeal to usual antagonistic games.
