Can you give an example for anti-seki?
One black string and one white string share exactly one liberty and do
not have any other liberty. Copy & paste the same but invert colours
elsewhere on the board. The shortest perfect play is to pass.
It can also be more complicated: use pendulum kos.
Asymmetric sets of subpositions is an interesting study field for
algebraists, says Charles Matthews.
Listing the possible configurations is a demanding open research field.
Perhaps you and someone like Thomas Wolf (with his life-and-dath background)
would
be "the right" people for this question.
Actually for non-ko sekis there are specialists such as Bill Taylor,
Harry Fearnley, Ger Hungerink, Denis Feldmann and others whose name I do
not recall now. Given enough time, Wolf and I might also do related
research and Wolf would have suitable programs to use but I have - for
me - more urgent tasks, such as continuing research on ordinary semeais.
Would strong go bots also fall in this category?
I do not know because I have seen too few games played by them.
