| An eternal dominating family of a graph $G$ in the eviction game is a collection $\mathcal{D}_{k}=\{D_{1},D_{2},\dots,D_{l}\}$ of dominating sets of $G$ such that (a) $|D_{i}|=|D_{j}|$ for all $i,j\in\{1,2,\dots,l\}$, and (b) for any $i\in \{1,2,\dots,l\}$ and any $v\in D_{i}$, either all neighbours of $v$ belong to $D_{i}$, or there are a neighbour $w$ of $v$ not in $D_{i}$ and an integer $j\in\{1,2,\dots,l\}\setminus\{i\}$ such that $D_{i}\cup\{w\}\setminus \{v\}=D_{j}$. The eviction number of $G$, denoted by $e^{\infty}(G)$, is the smallest cardinality of the sets in such an eternal dominating family. We compare $e^{\infty}$ to the independence number $\alpha$. We show that the ratio $\alpha/e^{\infty}$ is unbounded and construct an infinite class of connected graphs for which $e^{\infty}/\alpha \approx 4/3$. As our main result, we use Ramsey numbers to show that for any integer $k\geq1$, there exists a function $f(k)$ such that any graph with independence number$k$ has eviction number at most $f(k)$. | ||
