Samuil Leites

@Jacques: Just thinking, is also wKg1 possible, then Sxg3 is
no longer check (and unguarding h4 suffices anyway)?
The price would be sBd8, +sPb6 and lots of distracting
R moves to c7 and d7.

You mean in the 2# by Leites.
I don't know if it is worth doing so.
On one hand the refutation of 1.Dc8? is softer, on the other hand the set play 1...Sxg3 is less needed.
It costs a full black pawn in a light diagram, and you don't really add any try, so...

The Leites: i would invest that bPb6 to place the King in g1, if only 1...Nxg3 could still be a defense against the Novotny double threat...

@ Jacques: Isn't the Golovkov anticipated by this Study here (pointed out by Olaf Jenkner) https://pdb.dieschwalbe.de/P1321560

Zalmen, thank you!
You are right for both things!

For the Leites of course and for the Golovkov too.
For the Golovkov, tough it is anticipated it adds a - small - point in that it shows the matrix with white to play

Another point is: The Gallischek study is a mate in 18, but the main line has only 17 moves. So we have an improvement.

@Olaf
You are right this is also a point.

Is it possible that such a version of the Golovkov would be correct ?

Pyotr Golovkov Shachmaty 1976 - after Otto Gallischek - version JR

there must be something in g7, otherwise you have 17...Rxf6!
So... there are tens of positions to check till perhaps one will be correct with 3 evacuation sacrifices for example something like that :
(= 13+7 )
or like that
(= 13+7 )

One of those two new positions is illegal due to wPe2g2 wB captured at home

@Jacques: In The first version above there's a mate in #19 with 17...Rf6 etc; but, before, no mate at all after 5. .Rf6! (not sure though)

** But maybe the #18 can be done without a black piece in g7, hiring a Knight in e4 to controll both f6 and g5

(= 13+6 )
#18

@andrew
Thank you! so in the 1st diagram of (30) put a knight on b3
@Zalmen
in your diagram, what happens after 17...Rxf6?
 
   
(Read Only)pid=20660
(34) Posted by Jacques Rotenberg [Tuesday, Feb 16, 2021 09:37]

another direction to build may be so :

(= 13+7 )
1.d8=S and so on

perhaps also :

(= 14+6 )

34a: should still close the d3-d8 line;

34b: seems ok, if You don't care for the trial after 17...Rxf6

('seems ok' isn't the same of 'C+' ;)

The V-32 above: You mean 16...Rxf6 I guess. Then 17.Rh3+ Kg7 18.gxf6#; for 4...Rxf6 we have 5.gxf6! etc and a shorter mate.

**I prefer the following position (with the Knight in e5. (Not so éloigné of the scene). Matter of taste I believe... presque un je ne sais pas pourquoi

(= 13+6 )
#18

Voilà, encore un petit détail (exchange d2 and g2). More harmonious

The last two positions are cooked:

12. Kd4 Td3+ 13. Ke5 Txd5+ 14. Kf4 Tf5+ 15. Kg3 Tf3+ 16. Kh2 Txf6 17. Th3+ Kg7 18. gxf6#
15. ... Txg5+ 16. Sxg5+ Kh6 17. Kf4 ~ 18. Th3#
15. ... Txf6 16. Sexf6+ Kg7 17. Se8+ Kh7 18. Sdf6#
14. ... Txg5 15. Sxg5+ Kh6 16. Th3#
12. ... Tb4+ 13. Ke5 Txe4+ 14. Kd6 Te6+ 15. dxe6 fxe6 16. Th3#
