A classical inequality by Gr\"unbaum provides a sharp lower bound for the ratio $\mathrm{vol}(K^{-})/\mathrm{vol}(K)$, where $K^{-}$ denotes the intersection of a convex body with non-empty interior $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with a halfspace…

Given a set of points in a metric space, the $(k,z)$-clustering problem consists of finding a set of $k$ points called centers, such that the sum of distances raised to the power of $z$ of every data point to its closest center is…

We consider a variant of the $k$-center clustering problem in $\Re^d$, where the centers can be divided into two subsets, one, the red centers of size $p$, and the other, the blue centers of size $q$, where $p+q=k$, and such that each red…
