โฆ Synopsis
A tower is a polygon consisting of two reflex chains sharing one common endpoint, together with one edge joining the other endpoints of the chains. A linear time algorithm is given to recognize the [vertex] visibility graphs of towers, and these graphs are characterized as bipartite permutation graphs with an added Hamiltonian cycle. Similar results have been obtained independently by Choi, Shin and Chwa (1992).
