Abstract

The present work considers the properties of classes of generally convex sets in the plane known as 11-semiconvex and weakly 11-semiconvex. More specifically, the examples of open and closed weakly 11-semiconvex but non 11-semiconvex sets with smooth boundary in the plane are constructed. It is proved that such sets consist of minimum four connected components. In addition, the example of closed, weakly 11-semiconvex, and non 11-semiconvex set in the plane consisting of three connected components is constructed. It is proved that such a number of components is minimal for any closed, weakly 11-semiconvex, and non 11-semiconvex set in the plane.
