We give a deterministic method of quasi-polynomial complexity to approximate the volume of the intersection of the unit hypercube with two specific sets. The method can actually be applied (without losing the quasi-polynomial complexity) to…

In this survey, we discuss volumetric and combinatorial results concerning (mostly finite) intersections or unions of balls (mostly of equal radii) in the $d$-dimensional real vector space, mostly equipped with the Euclidean norm. Our first…

Polytopes are the basic finite data structures for convex sets: they appear as feasible regions in linear optimization, as geometric summaries in algorithms, and as random objects in stochastic geometry. A natural geometric question is…
