Abstract

The problem of finding mobile intruders in a simple polygon using as few searchers as possible is considered. The polygon search number represents the number of searchers necessary and sufficient to search the simple polygon. The upper and lower bounds on the polygon search number of this simple polygon in terms of four measures of shape complexity are presented. The gap between the upper and lower bounds are given in terms of measures that are at most one for all values, whereas those given in terms of bushiness match. These bounds are either tight or almost tight.
