Normal augmented forms #
An augmented form is normal when every subposition is both Left and Right end-like. Normal forms are invertible modulo any set of forms, so they form a subgroup of the invertible subgroup of both the long augmented misère monoid (all augmented forms) and the short one.
Note that comparing two normal forms modulo a promain set relies only on the maintenance, since the proviso is always satisfied.
Comparison of end-like forms #
When g and h are end-like for both players, the proviso is automatic, so g ≥m A h follows from maintenance alone.
For forms that are end-like for both players, comparison modulo a promain set
A drops the proviso: g ≥m A h is just maintenance.
