A well-known conjecture states that the Whitney numbers of the second kind of a geometric lattice (simple matroid) are logarithmically concave. We show this conjecture to be equivalent to proving an upper bound on the number of new copoints…

Each finite configuration of points in the plane determines a corresponding lattice of noncrossing partitions. When these points form the vertex set of a convex polygon, the associated lattice is the classical noncrossing partition lattice…

We study the convex hulls of reachable sets of nonlinear systems with bounded disturbances and uncertain initial conditions. Reachable sets play a critical role in control, but remain notoriously challenging to compute, and existing…

The concept of cutting is first explicitly introduced. By the concept, a convex expansion for finite distributive lattices is considered. Thus, a more general method for drawing the Hasse diagram is given, and the rank generating function…

In this paper we present several results on the expected complexity of a convex hull of $n$ points chosen uniformly and independently from a convex shape. (i) We show that the expected number of vertices of the convex hull of $n$ points,…

Convex hulls are a fundamental geometric tool used in a number of algorithms. As a side-effect of exhaustive tests for an algorithm for which a convex hull computation was the first step, interesting experimental results were found and are…

The tropical convex hull of a finite set of points in tropical projective space has a natural structure of a cellular free resolution. Therefore, methods from computational commutative algebra can be used to compute tropical convex hulls.…

We state the formula for the critical number of vertices of a convex lattice polygon that guarantees that the polygon contains at least one point of a given sublattice and give a partial proof of the formula. We show that the proof can be…

The convex hull of N independent random points chosen on the boundary of a simple polytope in R^n is investigated. Asymptotic formulas for the expected number of vertices and facets, and for the expectation of the volume difference are…

We study $\mathbb{R}^2\oplus\mathbb{R}$-separately convex hulls of finite sets of points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, as in KirchheimMullerSverak2003. This notion of convexity, which we call $2+1$ convexity, corresponds to rank-one convex convexity,…

Various characterizations of finite convex geometries are well known. This note provides similar characterizations for possibly infinite convex geometries whose lattice of closed sets is strongly coatomic and lower continuous. Some classes…

In this paper we look for the convex hull of a set using the geometric evolution by minimal curvature of a hypersurface that surrounds the set. To find the convex hull, we study the large time behavior of solutions to an obstacle problem…

Properties of several sorts of lattices of convex subsets of R^n are examined. The lattice of convex sets containing the origin turns out, for n>1, to satisfy a set of identities strictly between those of the lattice of all convex subsets…

A convex polygon is defined as a sequence (V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of points on a plane such that the union of the edges [V_0,V_1],..., [V_{n-2},V_{n-1}], [V_{n-1},V_0] coincides with the boundary of the convex hull of the set of vertices…
