Abstract

We call grid n-ogon each n-vertex orthogonal simple polygon, with no collinear edges, that may be placed in a unit square grid. In this paper we consider the Minimum Vertex Guard problem for this class of orthogonal polygons. As a step for the resolution of this general problem, we are going to study it for an interesting subclass of grid n-ogons: the SPIRAL grid n-ogons, which are the grid n-ogons whose boundary can be divided into a reflex chain and a convex chain.
