✦ Synopsis


We show that every segment endpoint visibility graph on n disjoint line segments in the plane admits an alternating path of length (log n), and this bound is optimal apart from a constant factor.

In a recent paper Lovfisz, Neumann-Lara and Plummer proved some Mengerian theorems for paths of bounded length. In this note the line connectivity analogue of their problem "is considered. In [3] Lovfisz, Neumann-Lara and Plummer considered the problem of extending Monger's theorem to paths of boun
