Carlos Camacho Campos, José Carlos Camacho Moreno, Dorota Kuziak, Zahid Raza, Ismael G. Yero

TL;DR
This paper introduces a model for mobile robots in networks that maintain the ability to uniquely identify all network nodes as they move.
Contribution
The paper introduces the concept of mobile metric dimension and explores its combinatorial properties.
Findings
Mobile metric dimension is related to classical metric dimension and resolving number of graphs.
The value of mobile metric dimension is computed for several graph classes.
Robots can move while maintaining the resolving set property.
Abstract
A model for mobility of robots keeping the property of uniquely recognizing the vertices of a given network is considered in this work. This is made in order to detect failures or intruders, by means of dynamic vectors of distances to the set of mobile robots. We consider the smallest set of robots that can be placed in a set of nodes of a network that forms a resolving set, which is a structure of a graph such that it uniquely recognizes all the vertices of the graph by using distances. We are then focused on allowing such robots to move from one vertex to another adjacent one, through the edges of the whole graph. At each performed movement we require that the new set of covered nodes forms a resolving set. This process allows the robots to recognize all the vertices of the graph, independently on the position in which they are located. In this sense, the notion of mobile metric…
