Guarding orthogonal art galleries with sliding cameras

In this paper, we answer questions posed by Katz and Morgenstern (2011) by presenting the following results: (i) the MLSC problem is polynomially tractable even for orthogonal polygons with holes, (ii) the MCSC problem is NP-complete when P is allowed to have holes, and (iii) an O(n3log⁡n)-time 2-approximation algorithm for the MCSC problem on [NE]-star-shaped orthogonal polygons with n vertices (similarly, [NW]-, [SE]-, or [SW]-star-shaped orthogonal polygons).
