Abstract:
The paper studies the geometry of a closed nonconvex smooth simply connected curve on a plane — of the Cassini oval, as well as the geometry of the $\varepsilon$-layer around the set whose boundary is the Cassini oval. Various analytical representations of the $\varepsilon$-layer boundary are formed, and special points of this boundary are described. The measure of nonconvexity $\alpha$ of a simply connected set whose boundary is the Cassini oval is determined, and the angular characteristic of nonconvexity of its $\varepsilon$-neighborhood is defined.
