I can't think of a way to losslessly describe it with fewer than 2 dimensions, but this doesn't mean that proof doesn't exist. all we know is the position of each piece on a line and whose move is next. For every chess rule I think we could find some equivalent description on this line and play 2D chess. If we play on this line pawns wouldn't move forward one rank, they'd move 8 steps right or left depending on the color. Nothing stops us from numbering all the squares on a chessboard 0-63 where a1 is 0 and h8 is 63, and then defining an equivalent ruleset to the chess we are familiar with. So putting those together, do we need all 3 of those dimensions? I think not. I know most people are only talking about spatial dimensions, but you do have to know who is about to move in a chess game. You could describe the position of everyone on earth with 4 dimensions, 3 spatial and 1, "do I personally like them" dimension, but that last demension doesn't seem necessary.Ģnd observation, chess clearly fits on 3 dimensions, move number (a kind of analogue for time), and position of pieces on a 2 dimensional coordinate system. But I'm also a moron, so here's my take.ġst observation, you can always include a superfluous dimension, so when we ask "how many dimensions is X" we're probably really asking "what's the minimum number of dimensions necessary to completely describe X". You're asking a bunch of morons on the internet to define a dimension, and so that's going as well as expected.
