Abstract

This column is devoted to opaque sets also known as barriers. A set of curves Γ that meet every line which intersects a given convex body B is called an opaque set or barrier for B . Although the shape and length of shortest barriers for simple bodies, such as a unit equilateral triangle or a unit square are seldom disputed, no proof of optimality is known or appears to be even near in sight.
