Transversal generalizations of hyperplane equipartitions

The classical Ham Sandwich theorem states that any $d$ point sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be simultaneously bisected by a single affine hyperplane. A generalization of Dolnikov asserts that any $d$ families of pairwise intersecting compact, convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ admit a common hyperplane transversal. We extend Dolnikov's theorem by showing that families of compact convex sets satisfying more general non-disjointness conditions admit common transversals by multiple hyperplanes. In particular, these generalize all known optimal results to the long-standing Gr\"unbaum--Hadwiger--Ramos measure equipartition problem in the case of two hyperplanes. Our proof proceeds by establishing topological Radon-type intersection theorems and then applying Gale duality in the linear setting. For a single hyperplane, this gives a new proof of Dolnikov's original result via Sarkaria's non-embedding criterion for simplicial complexes.
