Let
be a tree defined on a metric over a set of paths such that
the distance between paths
and
is
, where
is the number of nodes shared by
and
. Let
be a Borel set of paths in the
topology induced by this metric. Suppose two players play a game by choosing a path
down the tree, so that they alternate and each time choose an immediate successor
of the previously chosen point. The first player wins if the chosen path is in
.
Then one of the players has a winning strategy in this
game.
