MAXIMUM CLIQUE and MINIMUM CLIQUE PARTITION in Visibility Graphs
In an alternative approach to “characterizing” the graph class of visibility graphs of simple polygons, we study the problem of finding a maximum clique in the visibility graph of a simple polygon with n vertices. We show that this problem is very hard, if the input polygons are allowed to contain holes: a gap-preserving reduction from the maximum clique problem on general graphs implies that n...
متن کاملSingle-Point Visibility Constraint Minimum Link Paths in Simple Polygons
We address the following problem: Given a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices and two points $s$ and $t$ inside it, find a minimum link path between them such that a given target point $q$ is visible from at least one point on the path. The method is based on partitioning a portion of $P$ into a number of faces of equal link distance from a source point. This partitioning is essentially a shor...
متن کاملVisibility Graphs of Staircase Polygons and the Weak Bruhat Order, I: from Visibility Graphs to Maximal Chains
The recognition problem for visibility graphs of simple polygons is not known to be in NP, nor is it known to be NP-hard. It is, however, known to be in PSPACE. Further, every such visibility graph can be dismantled as a sequence of visibility graphs of convex fans. Any nondegenerate configuration of n points can be associated with a maximal chain in the weak Bruhat order of the symmetric group...

متن کاملA Note on the Combinatorial Structure of the Visibility Graph in Simple Polygons
Combinatorial structure of visibility is probably one of the most fascinating and interesting areas of engineering and computer science. The usefulness of visibility graphs in computational geometry and robotic navigation problems like motion planning, unknown-terrain learning, shortest-path planning, etc., cannot be overstressed. The visibility graph, apart from being an important data structu...
