Controlling stochastic growth processes on lattices: Wildfire management with robotic fire extinguishers

Forest fires continue to cause considerable social and economic damage. Fortunately, the emergence of new robotics technologies, including capable autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles, may help improve wildfire management in the near future. In this paper, we characterize the number of vehicles requi...
