Seeing is not believing in limited visibility cops and robbers

Abstract: We consider the model of limited visibility Cops and Robbers, where the cops can only see within their $l$-neighbourhood. We prove that the number of cops needed to see the robber can be arbitrarily smaller than the number needed to capture the robber, answering an open question from the literature. We then consider how close we can get to seeing the robber when we do not have enough cops, along with a probabilistic interpretation.
