We prove a new Radon type theorem for unions of convex sets, settling an open problem posed by Kalai in the 1970s. We also define and study an extension of the notion of the VC-dimension of a hypergraph and apply it to establish an…

We study the ``no-dimensional'' analogue of Helly's theorem in Banach spaces. Specifically, we obtain the following no-dimensional Helly-type results for uniformly convex Banach spaces: Helly's theorem, fractional Helly's theorem, colorful…

Two celebrated extensions of the classical Helly's theorem are the fractional Helly theorem and the colorful Helly theorem. Bulavka, Goodarzi, and Tancer recently established the optimal bound for the unified generalization of the…

Define the $k$-th Radon number $r_k$ of a convexity space as the smallest number (if it exists) for which any set of $r_k$ points can be partitioned into $k$ parts whose convex hulls intersect. Combining the recent abstract fractional Helly…

We present a unified approach to prove Helly-type theorems for monotone properties of boxes, such as having large volume or containing points from a given set. As a corollary, we obtain new proofs for several earlier results regarding…

The main results here are two Helly type theorems for the sum of (at most) unit vectors in a normed plane. Also, we give a new characterization of centrally symmetric convex sets in the plane.

In this paper we extend the theory of Henstock-Orlicz spaces with respect to vector measure. We study the integral representation of operators. Lastly we study Uniformly convexity, reflexivity and the Radon-Nikodym property of the…

Families of translates and homothets of strictly convex curves are proven to possess Helly-type properties generalizing those of a circle. Weaker results are shown for arbitrary convex curves.

We introduce abstract net spaces on directed sets and prove their embedding and interpolation properties. Typical examples of interest are lattices of irreducible unitary representations of compact Lie groups and of class I representations…

We provide a new quantitative version of Helly's theorem: there exists an absolute constant $\alpha >1$ with the following property: if $\{P_i: i\in I\}$ is a finite family of convex bodies in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with ${\rm int}\left…

Let X be a separable Banach space and Y a space which has the Radon-Nikodym property. In this work, we show that L(X, Y) has the Radon-Nikodym property, if L(X, Y) is weakly locally uniformly convex or if L(X, Y) is a weakly compactly gen-…

We consider quantitative versions of Helly-type questions, that is, instead of finding a point in the intersection, we bound the volume of the intersection. Our first main geometric result is a quantitative version of the Fractional Helly…

We describe a connection between the combinatorics of generators for certain groups and the combinatorics of Helly's 1913 theorem on convex sets. We use this connection to prove fixed point theorems for actions of these groups on…

Carath\'eodory's, Helly's and Radon's theorems are three basic results in discrete geometry. Their max-plus counterparts have been proved by various authors. In this paper, more advanced results in discrete geometry are shown to have also…
