Abstract

Given a convex domain C, a C-polygon is an intersection of n≥ 2 homothets of C. If the homothets are translates of C then we call the intersection a translative C-polygon. This paper proves that if C is a strictly convex domain with m singular boundary points, then the number of singular boundary points a C-polygon has is between n and 2(n-1)+m. For a translative C-polygon we show the number of singular boundary points is between n and n+m.
