   On the topic of simple chess variants played on a tiny board:

   Mamikon's Mini-Chess is a game/puzzle played with just a white queen and black king on a 4x3 board, that is said to have eluded Kasparov.

   Mamikov Mnatsakanian is also the co-author with Tom Apostol of the wonderful New Horizons in Geometry. "As an undergraduate he specialized in the development of geometric methods for solving calculus problems by a visual approach that makes no use of formulas, which he later developed into his system of visual calculus."
