In this paper we address the problem of finding well approximating lattices for a given finite set $A$ of points in ${\mathbb R}^n$. More precisely, we search for $\v{o},\v{d_1}, \dots,\v{d_n}\in \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\v{a}-\v{o}$ is…

For a set P of n points in R^2, the Euclidean 2-center problem computes a pair of congruent disks of the minimal radius that cover P. We extend this to the (2,k)-center problem where we compute the minimal radius pair of congruent disks to…

For $X$ a metric space and $r>0$, the Vietoris--Rips simplicial complex $\mathrm{VR}(X;r)$ has $X$ as its vertex set, and a finite subset $\sigma \subseteq X$ as a simplex whenever the diameter of $\sigma$ is less than $r$. In ``On…
