The search and rescue game on a cycle

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2023
We consider a search and rescue game introduced recently by the first author. An immobile target or targets (for example, injured hikers) are hidden on a graph. The terrain is assumed to dangerous, so that when any given vertex of the graph is searched, there is a certain probability that the search will come to an end, otherwise with the complementary
