We consider the rendezvous problem for identical mobile agents (i.e., running the same deterministic algorithm) with tokens in a synchronous torus with a sense of direction and show that there is a strikingcomputational differencebetween one and more tokens. More specifically, we show that 1) two agents with a constant number of unmovable tokens, or with one movable token, each cannot rendezvous if they haveo(logn) memory, while they can perform rendezvous with detection as long as they have one unmovable token andO(logn) memory; in contrast, 2) when two agents have two movable tokens each then rendezvous (respectively, rendezvous with detection) is possible with constant memory in an arbitraryn×m(respectively,n×n) torus; and finally, 3) two agents with three movable tokens each and constant memory can perform rendezvous with detection in an×mtorus. This is the first publication in the literature that studies tradeoffs between the number of tokens, memory and knowledge the agents need in order to meet in such a network.
