Maximizing the Guarded Boundary of an Art Gallery Is APX-Complete
In the Art Gallery problem, given is a polygonal gallery and the goal is to guard the gallery’s interior or walls with a number of guards that must be placed strategically in the...

Orthogonal Art Galleries with Holes: A Coloring Proof of Aggarwal's Theorem
We prove that n+h 4 vertex guards are always sufficient to see the entire interior of an n-vertex orthogonal polygon P with an arbitrary number h of holes provided that there exis...

A Pseudopolynomial Time O (log n )-Approximation Algorithm for Art Gallery Problems
In this paper, we give a O(log copt)-approximation algorithm for the point guard problem where copt is the optimal number of guards. Our algorithm runs in time polynomial in n, the...

Wireless Localization with Vertex Guards is NP-hard
We consider a special class of art gallery problems inspired by wireless localization. Given a simple polygon P, place and orient guards each of which broadcasts a unique key with...

New Results on Visibility in Simple Polygons
We show that (A), 14 points on the boundary of a Jordan curve, and (B), 16 points in convex position encircled by a Jordan curve, cannot be shattered by interior visibility domains...
