I thought I had lost the file when I turned in my old laptop, but I found a backup. Unfortunately the Arimaa Wiki doesn't permit file uploads for anything other than png, gif, and jpg. How would you suggest sharing the ppt file?

Thanks Janzert. I have uploaded the slides here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/26127899/Lecture
They're not much to get excited about, but due to popular demand...

May I ask you about the slide 16. I might be wrong but
The slide has said something like the following:
Arimaa five-move search:
2^(14*10/2) = 2^80 = 10^24 = 31 billion years > lifetime of universe
Won't it be?:
Arimaa five-move search:
2^(14*10/2) = 2^70 = 10^21million = 31 688 764.6 years
Regards.

But this is also true that
In Chess each move consists of one step so 5 next moves means 10 steps for two players.
But In Arimaa each move consists of 4 steps so 5 next moves means 40 steps for two players.
In that case
2^(14*40/2) = 10^84 ....
Am I right?

You are correct. The slide is in error. It should be
(2^14)^(10/2) / 1,000,000 seconds = 37 million years. Thanks for pointing this out.
Your second calculation based on steps doesn't work because the Arimaa branching factor per step is somewhat less than the chess branching factor per move.
