In this paper we derive strong linear inequalities for sets of the form {(x, q) \in Rd \times R : q \geq Q(x), x \in Rd - int(P)}, where Q(x) : Rd \rightarrow R is a quadratic function, P \subset Rd and "int" denotes interior. Of particular…

For a planar point set $P$, its convex hull is the smallest convex polygon that encloses all points in $P$. The construction of the convex hull from an array $I_P$ containing $P$ is a fundamental problem in computational geometry. By…

The integer hull of a polyhedron is the convex hull of the integer points contained in it. We show that the vertices of the integer hulls of a rational family of polyhedra of size O(n) have quasipolynomial coordinates. As a corollary, we…

Finite automata are used to encode geometric figures, functions and can be used for image compression and processing. The original approach is to represent each point of a figure in $\mathbb{R}^n$ as a convolution of its $n$ coordinates…

We show that the polyhedron defined as the convex hull of the lattice points above the hyperbola $\left\{xy = n\right\}$ has between $\Omega(n^{1/3})$ and $O(n^{1/3} \log n)$ vertices. The same bounds apply to any hyperbola with rational…
