โœฆ Synopsis


We show that S c E 2 contains a line segment illuminator if any two points of S are illuminated by a line segment of S in a given direction or if any eight points of S are illuminated by a connected set of line segments of S and a certain connectedness condition is fulfilled. We also show that if any three points of S ~ E 2 are illuminated by a translate in S of a line segment T, then S contains a line segment illuminator, which is also a translate of T. As a further result; we have that if any three points of a polygon P are illuminated by some line segment of P then the so-called link center of P illuminates P. Finally, we prove that if any three points of an osymmetric polygon P are illuminated by a line segment of P through the point 0 then P contains an o-symmetric convex illuminator which is either a line segment or a parallelogram.

Let F be a family of n convex sets in the plane. A set of light sources S illuminates F if every point on the boundary of each element of F is visible from at least one element in S. We prove that if F is a family of n line segments, n >/11, then [-2n/3 7 light sources are always sufficient to illum
