Abstract

We obtain a polynomial time approximation scheme for the terrain guarding problem improving upon several recent constant factor approximations. Our algorithm is a local search algorithm inspired by the recent results of Chan and Har-Peled [2] and Mustafa and Ray [15]. Our key contribution is to show the existence of a planar graph that appropriately relates the local and global optimum.
