How responsibility gates and zone architecture can shift multi-agent conflicts from defection-prone dynamics toward cooperative equilibria
Multi-agent systems executing tasks in parallel face a quality challenge: conflict rates can grow quadratically with agent count. This paper presents a game-theoretic framework showing how responsibility gates and zone partitioning reduce conflict pressure while retaining high task completion. In evaluated settings, the design reported over 91% conflict-rate reduction with 98.7% task completion.
A combinatorial proof that unpartitioned parallel agents produce O(n^2) conflicts, and the zone optimization that tames them
When `n` agents execute in parallel over shared resources, conflict rate can scale quadratically with `n`. This paper provides a combinatorial proof, derives `C(n) = n(n-1)/2 * p_conflict`, and solves zone-partition optimization that minimizes total conflict while maintaining throughput. We present the throughput-conflict Pareto frontier and derive `Z* = sqrt(n / p_conflict)` as the partition scale that yields near-linear conflict growth in the model.
