We will consider some extensions of the polygonal art gallery problem. In a recent paper Morrison has shown the smallest (9 sides) example of an art gallery that cannot be observed by guards placed in every third corner. Author also…
One of the earliest and most well known problems in computational geometry is the so-called art gallery problem. The goal is to compute the minimum possible number guards placed on the vertices of a simple polygon in such a way that they…
We examine the Art Gallery Problem with Edge Guards. We present a heuristic algorithm to arrange edge guards to guard only the inward side of the walls of any N-vertex simple polygonal gallery using at most roof (N/4) edge guards - a…
In this paper we study the art gallery problem, which is one of the fundamental problems in computational geometry. The objective is to place a minimum number of guards inside a simple polygon such that the guards together can see the whole…
In any simple polygonal art gallery with n walls, we show that it is possible to place floor(n/2)-1 guards whose range of vision is 180 degrees in such a way that every interior point of the gallery can be seen by one of them, and such that…
We study the art gallery problem for opposing half guards: guards that can either see to their left or to their right only. We present art gallery theorems, show that the location of half guards in 2-guardable polygons is not restricted to…
We explore an Art Gallery variant where each point of a polygon must be seen by k guards, and guards cannot see through other guards. Surprisingly, even covering convex polygons under this variant is not straightforward. For example,…
We consider a variant of the art gallery problem where all guards are limited to seeing to the right inside a monotone polygon. We call such guards: half-guards. We provide a polynomial-time approximation for point guarding the entire…
We introduce a new variant of the art gallery problem that comes from safety issues. In this variant we are not interested in guard sets of smallest cardinality, but in guard sets with largest possible distances between these guards. To the…
Given a simple polygon $\mathcal{P}$ on $n$ vertices, two points $x,y$ in $\mathcal{P}$ are said to be visible to each other if the line segment between $x$ and $y$ is contained in $\mathcal{P}$. The Point Guard Art Gallery problem asks for…
The boundary-boundary art-gallery problem asks, given a polygon $P$ representing an art-gallery, for a minimal set of guards that can see the entire boundary of $P$ (the wall of the art gallery), where the guards must be placed on the…
In the problem "Localization and trilateration with the minimum number of landmarks", we faced the 3-Guard and classic Art Gallery Problems. The goal of the art gallery problem is to find the minimum number of guards within a simple polygon…
In the Art Gallery Problem we are given a polygon $P\subset [0,L]^2$ on $n$ vertices and a number $k$. We want to find a guard set $G$ of size $k$, such that each point in $P$ is seen by a guard in $G$. Formally, a guard $g$ sees a point $p…
In the art gallery problem, we are given a closed polygon $P$, with rational coordinates and an integer $k$. We are asked whether it is possible to find a set (of guards) $G$ of size $k$ such that any point $p\in P$ is seen by a point in…
Victor Klee introduce the art gallery problem during a conference in Stanford in August 1976 with that question: "How many guards are required to guard an art gallery?" In 1987, Ghosh provided an approximation algorithm for vertex guards…
We introduce the notion of a normal gallery, a gallery in which any configuration of guards that visually covers the walls covers the entire gallery. We show that any star gallery is normal and any gallery with at most two reflex corners is…
We prove that every simply connected orthogonal polygon of $n$ vertices can be partitioned into $\left\lfloor\frac{3 n +4}{16}\right\rfloor$ (simply connected) orthogonal polygons of at most 8 vertices. It yields a new and shorter proof of…
Given a simple polygon $\cal P$, in the Art Gallery problem, the goal is to find the minimum number of guards needed to cover the entire $\cal P$, where a guard is a point and can see another point $q$ when $\overline{pq}$ does not cross…
We study the Dispersive Art Gallery Problem with vertex guards: Given a polygon $\mathcal{P}$, with pairwise geodesic Euclidean vertex distance of at least $1$, and a rational number $\ell$; decide whether there is a set of vertex guards…
Let $P$ be a simple polygon, then the art gallery problem is looking for a minimum set of points (guards) that can see every point in $P$. We say two points $a,b\in P$ can see each other if the line segment $seg(a,b)$ is contained in $P$.…
