Autonomous Domination

Abstract

The well-known notion of domination in a graph abstracts the idea of protecting locations with guards. This paper introduces a new graph invariant, the autonomous domination number, which abstracts the idea of defending a collection of locations with autonomous agents following a simple protocol to coordinate their defense using only local information.
