Distance function to a compact set plays a central role in several areas of computational geometry. Methods that rely on it are robust to the perturbations of the data by the Hausdorff noise, but fail in the presence of outliers. The…

Let Z be a so-called well-behaved percolation, i.e. a certain random closed set in the hyperbolic plane, whose law is invariant under all isometries; for example the covered region in a Poisson Boolean model. The Hausdorff-dimension of the…

Approximating distance is one of the key challenge in a facility location problem. Several algorithms have been proposed, however, none of them focused on estimating distance between two concave regions. In this work, we present an…

The Dirichlet forms methods, in order to represent errors and their propagation, are particularly powerful in infinite dimensional problems such as models involving stochastic analysis encountered in finance or physics, cf. [5]. Now, coming…

Given a non-increasing function $\psi\colon\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}^+$ such that $s^{\frac{n+1}{n}}\psi(s)$ tends to zero as $s$ goes to infinity, we show that the set of points in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that are exactly $\psi$-approximable is…

We investigate the box dimensions of compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that contain a unit distance in every direction (such sets may have zero Hausdorff dimension). Among other results, we show that the lower box dimension must be at least…

Any discrete approach to quantum gravity must provide some prescription as to how to deduce continuum properties from the discrete substructure. In the causal set approach it is straightforward to deduce timelike distances, but surprisingly…
