Strong digital topological complexity of digital maps (Q6545213)

In [Discrete Comput. Geom. 29, No. 2, 211--221 (2003; Zbl 1038.68130)], \textit{M. Farber} investigated a notion of topological complexity for the motion planning problem as a number which measures discontinuity of the process of motion planning in the configuration space by using the methods of the Lusternik-Schnirelman theory. In [Topology Appl. 157, No. 5, 916--920 (2010; Zbl 1187.55001)], \textit{Y. B. Rudyak} introduced a series of numerical invariants which can be regarded as higher topological complexity of a topological space and calculated these invariants in the case of a sphere.\N\NIn the paper under review, the authors explore a notion of digital topological complexity of a digitally continuous function, and the strong digital \(f\)-sectional category of a digitally continuous function \(p : E \rightarrow B\), where \(f : B \rightarrow X\) is a digitally continuous function. They also present the relationship between the strong digital topological complexity and the ordinary digital ones, and consider the naive digital topological complexity of digitally continuous functions.
