On Visibility and Blockers

This expository paper discusses some conjectures related to visibility and blockers for sets of points in the plane

Blocking Visibility for Points in General Position

For a finite set P in the plane, let b(P) be the smallest possible size of a set Q, Q∩P=∅, such that every segment with both endpoints in P contains at least one point of Q. We raise the problem of estimating b(n), the minimum of b(P) over all n-point sets P with no three points collinear. We review results providing bounds on b(n) and mention some additional observation
