We determine all critical configurations for the Area function on polygons with vertices on a circle or an ellipse. For isolated critical points we compute their Morse index, resp index of the gradient vector field. We relate the computation at an isolated degenerate point to an eigenvalue question about combinations. In the even dimensional case non-isolated singularities occur as `zigzag trains'.
期刊介绍:
The main purpose of Hokkaido Mathematical Journal is to promote research activities in pure and applied mathematics by publishing original research papers. Selection for publication is on the basis of reports from specialist referees commissioned by the editors.
