Part I
It is very surprising, that Bishop and Knight and are of almost equal strength on an 8x8 board as they move in completely different ways. The Knight is a short range piece. When it moves, it loses contact with all (!!) the squares it
controlled before and the colour of the square it occupies changes with each move. The Bishop is a long range piece, which can visit only half of the squares of the board. So depending on the given pawn structure, it can
dominate the Knight in an open position with play on both wings or look like an overgrown pawn, if the pawns are blocked on squares of the same colour and it has very limited scope. In the first part of my discussion I will look at positions, in which the player with the Knight is behind on material and tries to set up a fortress on squares opposite to the Bishop's colour:
5.01 L.Gutman (2533) - K.Müller (2513) German Ch, Heringsdorf 2000
=/=
White can't make any meaningful progress so Gutman decided to call it a day after 53.Kf3 Nd5 ½–½
The next fortress shows a curious special case:
5.02 C.Cohrs (2205) - W.Gerstner (2400) Dresden 1999 /=
46...Nd1 47.Kf3 Kf6 48.Bc8 Nc3 49.Ke3 Nxa2 50.Kd4 Nc3 51.Kc5 Na2 52.Bd7 ½–½
In the next example Black has even better chances than White due to her more active King:
5.03 R.Borer (2015) - A.Frank Elista ol (Women) 1998 /=
53...Kb4! 54.Ke3 (54.Bc6 Kc5=) 54...Nc4+ (54...Nb7!? was worth trying e.g. 55.Be8 Nc5 56.Kd2 [56.Bc6? is bad as the pawn ending after 56...Nxa4 57.Bxa4? Kxa4 58.Kd2 Kb4 59.Kd3 Kb3 is lost.] 56...Ne6 [56...Nxe4+
57.Ke3 Nc5 58.Bc6=] 57.Bb5 Nf4 58.Bf1 Kxa4 59.Kc3 Ka5 and Black is slightly better) 55.Kd3 and a draw was agreed as the pawn ending after
55...Nb2+ 56.Kc2 Nxa4 57.Bxa4 Kxa4 58.Kc3 Kb5 59.Kb3 is equal.
The most powerful weapon to break such fortresses is zugzwang. The next two examples demonstrate this:
5.04 P.Leko (2701) - A.Khalifman (2628) Budapest 2000
+/-52.Bd7 1–0 If Black's Knight on c7 were a Bishop, the position would be dead drawn as Black wouldn't fall into zugzwang.
5.05 S.Ivanov (2538) - J.van der Wiel (2544) 15th EUCup final, Bugojno 1999
+/-59.Bd7 and van der Wiel resigned as he has no move after 59...Ng7 60.Kh6+-Sometimes the Bishop dominates the Knight:

53.Kd4 (The pawn ending after 53.Nf3 Bxf3 54.Kxf3 is lost: 54...Ke6 55.Ke3 Kd5 56.Kd3 d6–+) 53...Kf6 54.Kc5 g5 55.fxg5+ Kxg5 56.Kd6 (56.Kb6 f4 57.gxf4+ Kxh4 58.Kxa6 Kg4–+ [Hecht in ChessBase Magazin 73]) 56...f4 0–1 I want to end the discussion with a very complicated example:
5.07 H. Berliner in The System +/
Without the g-pawns, the position is dead drawn, but with them White can break through by a well-timed sacrifice of the e-pawn: 1.Bh4 Nf4+ 2.Kc5 (After 2.Ke4?! Ne6 3.Be1? Black's king gets to a more active position with 3...Kc6!
making a win extremely difficult, if not impossible.) 2...Ne6+ (2...Nd3+ 3.Kd4 Nf4 4.Bg3 Ne2+ 5.Kd5 Nxg3 6.e6+ Kd8 7.Kc6 Ne4 8.e7+ Ke8 9.d7+ Kxe7

Endgame Corner
Karsten Müller
Bishop vs Knight
Part II
IN THE SECOND PART of my analysis of knight vs bishop I want to deal with positions, where the knight feels at home. His manoeuvres in the first example are quite common in a position with many of the defender's pawns blocked on squares of the bishop's colour:
6.01 J.Gdanski (2435) - A.Volzhin (2370), Oakham 1992
First White liquidates the kingside pawns in order to penetrate there with his king: 46.g5 hxg5+ 47.hxg5 fxg5+
48.Nxg5 Kf6 49.Nf3 Bh5 50.Ne5 Be8
In the next step, White breaks through to the fifth rank as Black's king cannot maintain the opposition because the knight controls g6 51.Kg4! Ke6 52.Kg5 Ke7 53.Kf5! Kd8 54.Ke6 Kc7 55.Ke7 Bh5
Now White's knight heads for e6 to force Black's king away to penetrate with the king to d6: 56.Nf7 Bg6 57.Ng5 Bh5 58.Ne6+ Kc8 59.Kd6 Be8 (59...Bg4 60.Nf4 Kb7 61.Ng6 Bh5 62.Ne5 Be8 63.Ke7 Bh5 64.Kd7+-) 60.Nc7 Bd7 61.Nxa6 Be8 62.Nc7 Bd7 63.Ne6 Be8 64.Nf4 and Volzhin resigned due to 64...Bd7 (64...Kb7 65.Ke7+-) 65.Nd3 Be8 66.Ne5 Kb7
67.b3+-In the next example the attacking king can't penetrate and everything depends on whether the knight can overcome the resistance.
6.02 Z. Peng (2403) - V. Shklovski (2220) Hoogeveen, 2000
Black can't prevent White's knight from reaching c6 or winning the g- or d-pawn:
55.Kd1 Bg5 56.Ne1 Be3 57.Ke2 Bc5 (57...Bc1 58.Nc2 Kd7 59.Nb4 Kc7 60.Nc6+-) 58.Ng2 Kd7 59.Nh4 Ba3
And now White's king hinders the bishop from going back to the kingside with 60.Kd1! Bc5 (60...Ke7 61.Nf5+
Kf6 62.Nh6 Kg5 63.Nf7+ Kf6 64.Nd8+-) 61.Nf5 Bg1 62.Ke2 1–0 The following position is much easier to win.
file:///C|/Cafe/mueller/mueller.htm (2 of 7) [5/29/2001 8:06:22 AM]
6.03 A.Burn - A.Alekhine, Karlsbad 1911
76.f5+ gxf5 (76...Bxf5 77.Nxf5 Kxf5 78.Kf3 g5 (78...Ke6 79.Kf4 Ke7 80.Kg5 Kf7 81.Kh6+-) 79.hxg5 Kxg5 80.Kg3 Kf5 81.Kh4 Kg6 82.e6+-) 77.Kf4 Bg4 78.Kg5 Bh3 79.Ne8 Kf7 80.Nf6 f4 81.Kxf4 Be6 82.Kg5 1–0
Alexander Khalifman combined a lot of techniques to win this very complicated position.
6.04 A.Khalifman (2628) - D.Barua (2550) FIDE-Wch k.o. Las Vegas 1999 69.f5!! opening a path for White's king 69...gxf5 (69...Bxf5 70.Nxd5 Kf7 71.Nc7 Bc8 72.Kf4 Ke7 73.Ke5 g5 74.hxg5 h4 75.g6 h3 76.Nd5+ Ke8 77.Kf6 Bf5 78.Kxf5 h2 79.g7 Kf7 80.Nf6 Kxg7 81.Nh5+ Kf7 82.Ng3+-) 70.Kf4 Kf6 71.Nc2 Bd7 72.Ne1 Bc8 73.Nd3 Be6 (73...Bb7 74.Ke3 Kg7 75.Nf4 Kh6 76.Ne2 Kg6 77.Kf4 Kf6 78.Ng3 Bc8 79.Nxh5++-) 74.Kf3 Ke7 (74...Kg7 75.Ke3 Kf6 (75...Kf7 76.Nf4+-) 76.Nc5 Bc8 77.Kf4+- see the game) 75.Kg3 Kf6 76.Nc5 Bc8 77.Kf4 Kg6 78.Ke5 f4 (78...Kf7 79.Nd3+-) 79.Kxf4 Kf6
The next move looks strange at first sight, but White's king has to retreat to win the fight for the opposition as the knight can't lose a tempo 80.Kg3 Kg7 81.Kf3 Kg6 (81...Kf7 82.Nd3 Bg4+
83.Kf2 Kf6 (83...Ke7 84.Nc5 Bc8 85.Ke3 Kf7 86.Nd3 Kf6 87.Nf4+-)
84.Nf4 Kf5 85.Nxd5 Ke4 86.Nf6+ Kxd4 87.Nxg4 hxg4 (87...Kc3 88.Nf6 Kxb4 89.Nxh5 Kxa5 90.Nf4+-) 88.Kg3+-;
81...Kf6 82.Kf4+- and White has managed to lose the tempo by the
triangulation of his King.) 82.Nd3 Bg4+
(82...Bb7 83.Nf4+ Kh6 84.Ke3 Ba8 85.Nd3 Kg6 86.Kf4 Kf6 87.Nc5+-) 83.Ke3! Be6 84.Nf4+ Kf5 85.Nxh5 (Of course not 85.Nxe6?? Kxe6 86.Kf4 Kf6=) 85...Kg4 86.Nf4 Bf7 87.Nd3 Be6 88.Nc5 Bc8 89.h5 1–0 Very well played by Alexander Khalifman!
The last two examples show different themes.
6.05 K.Müller - Curt Hansen German Bundesliga 6th board, Hamburg-Porz 2001
Curt Hansen breaks through with a nice sacrifice of the knight: 42...Nf3!
(42...Ne4? 43.Bxe4 dxe4 44.g5+ Ke7 45.g6 e3 46.g7 e2 47.g8Q e1Q
48.Qg5+=) 43.Bc2 e5 44.g5+ Nxg5 (Of course not 44...Kf7?? 45.g6+ Kg8 46.Bf5+-) 45.dxe5+ Kxe5 46.Kxg5 d4 47.a4 (47.cxd4+ Kxd4 48.Kf4 b4 49.axb4 axb4 50.Kf3 b3 51.Bd1 b2 52.Bc2 Kc3 53.Bf5 Kd2–+; 47.Kg4 d3 48.Bb1 Ke4 49.Kg5 b4 50.axb4 axb4 51.cxb4 c3–+) 47...d3 48.Bd1 b4 49.cxb4 c3 0–1
6.06 J.Pelikian (2393) - J.Sunye Neto (2555) Sao Paulo zt 2000
Black can't make progress by normal means, so Sunye Neto takes drastic measures: 68...Nxd4!? 69.exd4 e3 70.Kh6 (70.Bh4 comes into
consideration as well e.g. 70...Ke4 71.Kg6 Kxd4 72.Kf6 Kc4 73.Kxe6 d4 74.Kf5 d3 75.e6 d2 76.e7 d1Q 77.e8Q Qf3+ 78.Ke5 Kxb4 79.Kd4=) 70...Ke4 71.Kg6 Kxd4 72.Kf6 Kc4 73.Kxe6?!
(73.Kg5! was better e.g. 73...d4 74.Kf4 Kd3 75.Kf3 e2 76.Kf2 Ke4 77.Kxe2 Kxe5 78.Kd3 Kd5 79.Bh4 e5 80.Be7 e4+ 81.Kd2 Kc4 82.Bc5 e3+ 83.Kc2 d3+ 84.Kd1 e2+ 85.Kd2=) 73...d4 74.Kf5 d3 75.e6 d2 76.Bxd2 exd2 77.e7 d1Q 78.e8Q Qd5+ 79.Kg6 Kxb4 80.Qe1+ Kc5 81.Qe3+ Qd4 82.Qc1+ Kb6
This endgame is drawn according to the tablebase, but over the board it is
extremely difficult to hold the draw.
White shows, that he knows the rule, that his king should be near the north east corner, but unfortunately Black's king march to b6 involved a trick: 83.Kh7?
Qd7+ and White resigned as he can't prevent the exchange of queens.
