Tverberg's theorem bounds the number of points $\mathbb{R}^d$ needed for the existence of a partition into $r$ parts whose convex hulls intersect. If the points are colored with $N$ colors, we seek partitions where each part has at most one…

Tverberg's theorem states that for any $k \ge 2$ and any set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of at least $(d + 1)(k - 1) + 1$ points in $d$ dimensions, we can partition $P$ into $k$ subsets whose convex hulls have a non-empty intersection. The…

We study colorful no-dimensional Tverberg-type problems and obtain several optimal results. A colorful no-dimensional Tverberg-type theorem provides a bound on a radius $R$ such that, for any pairwise disjoint $k$-element subsets…

Let $P$ be a set $n$ points in a $d$-dimensional space. Tverberg's theorem says that, if $n$ is at least $(k-1)(d+1)+1$, then $P$ can be partitioned into $k$ sets whose convex hulls intersect. Partitions with this property are called {\em…

The well know theorem of Tverberg states that if n > (d+1)(r-1) then one can partition any set of n points in R^d to r disjoint subsets whose convex hulls have a common point. The numbers T(d,r) = (d + 1)(r - 1) + 1 are known as Tverberg…

The colored Tverberg theorem asserts that for every d and r there exists t=t(d,r) such that for every set C in R^d of cardinality (d+1)t, partitioned into t-point subsets C_1,C_2,...,C_{d+1} (which we think of as color classes; e.g., the…

We prove a no-dimensional version of Carath\'edory's theorem: given an $n$-element set $P\subset \Re^d$, a point $a \in \conv P$, and an integer $r\le d$, $r \le n$, there is a subset $Q\subset P$ of $r$ elements such that the distance…

Let $P$ be a $d$-dimensional $n$-point set. A partition $T$ of $P$ is called a Tverberg partition if the convex hulls of all sets in $T$ intersect in at least one point. We say $T$ is $t$-tolerant if it remains a Tverberg partition after…

Let $C_1,...,C_{d+1}$ be $d+1$ point sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$, each containing the origin in its convex hull. A subset $C$ of $\bigcup_{i=1}^{d+1} C_i$ is called a colorful choice (or rainbow) for $C_1, \dots, C_{d+1}$, if it contains exactly…

The coloured Tverberg theorem was conjectured by B\'ar\'any, Lov\'{a}sz and F\"uredi and asks whether for any d+1 sets (considered as colour classes) of k points each in R^d there is a partition of them into k colourful sets whose convex…

We prove a "Tverberg type" multiple intersection theorem. It strengthens the prime case of the original Tverberg theorem from 1966, as well as the topological Tverberg theorem of Barany et al. (1980), by adding color constraints. It also…
