The free will theorem of John H. Conway and Simon B. Kochen states that if we have a free will in the sense that our choices are not a function of the past, then, subject to certain assumptions, so must some elementary particles. Conway and Kochen's paper was published in Foundations of Physics in 2006. [1]

On Numbers and Games is a mathematics book by John Horton Conway first published in 1976. [1] The book is written by a pre-eminent mathematician, and is directed at other mathematicians. The material is, however, developed in a playful and unpretentious manner and many chapters are accessible to non-mathematicians.
The angel problem is a question in combinatorial game theory proposed by John Horton Conway. The game is commonly referred to as the angels and devils game. [1] The game is played by two players called the angel and the devil. It is played on an infinite chessboard (or equivalently the points of a 2D lattice).

The Game of Life, also known as Conway's Game of Life or simply Life, is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. [1] It is a zero-player game, [2] [3] meaning that its evolution is determined by its initial state, requiring no further input. One interacts with the Game of Life by creating an initial ...
