Abstract:

We define the notions of strong convexity and strong visibility. These notions generalize standard convexity and visibility, as well as several types of nontraditional convexity, such as iso-oriented rectangles and C-oriented polygons. We explore the properties of strong convexity and strong visibility in two and three dimensions. In particular, we establish analogs of the following properties of standard convex sets: • Every two points of a convex set are visible to each other. • The intersection of convex sets is a convex set. • For every point in the boundary of a convex set, there exists a supporting plane through this point. • A closed convex set in three dimensions is the intersection of all halfspaces that contain it.
