Subject: Several chess programming questions

  Hi,
 week is over but my head is still full of questions, here they are:

 1) how to quickly identify repetition in the game tree (with help from
      hash tables, probably) ?
 2) when reading some info about Zarkov there were mentioned, without
    explanation, techniques as "reduced depth search" and "threat heuristics"
     - so how and when can they be used?
     Note: They were not mentioned in any context so to include that text
            here wouldn't be useful...
 3) does "razoring" mean pruning in general (or even alfa-beta method)?

  Thank you in advance

       Jan
