Abstract: In this paper, spindle starshaped sets are introduced and investigated, which apart from normalization form an everywhere dense subfamily within the family of starshaped sets. We focus on proving spindle starshaped analogues of recent theorems of Bobylev, Breen, Toranzos, and Zamfirescu on starshaped sets. Finally, we consider the problem of guarding treasures in an art gallery (in the traditional linear way as well as via spindles).

Review text

The authors introduce and study the family of spindle starshaped sets, which form an everywhere dense subfamily of the family of starshaped sets. The authors extend several recent results to the new setting. They also consider the problem of guarding treasures in an art gallery.
