In this article, we determine the amortized computational complexity of the planar dynamic convex hull problem by querying. We present a data structure that maintains a set of n points in the plane under the insertion and deletion of points…
From the results in the literature, the algebraic set of the hyperbola with parameter $n$ defined by $\mathcal{B}_{n}(X, Y, Z)_{\mid_{x\geq 4n}}= \displaystyle \lbrace \left(X: Y: Z\right)\in \mathbb{P}^{2}(\mathbb{Q}) \ \vert \…
An obstacle representation of a graph $G$ is a set of points in the plane representing the vertices of $G$, together with a set of polygonal obstacles such that two vertices of $G$ are connected by an edge in $G$ if and only if the line…
Convex hulls are fundamental objects in computational geometry. In moderate dimensions or for large numbers of vertices, computing the convex hull can be impractical due to the computational complexity of convex hull algorithms. In this…
For each $n$, let RD$(n)$ denote the minimum $d$ for which there exists a formula for the general polynomial of degree $n$ in algebraic functions of at most $d$ variables. In this paper, we recover an algorithm of Sylvester for determining…
We study the problems of testing and learning high-dimensional discrete convex sets. The simplest high-dimensional discrete domain where convexity is a non-trivial property is the ternary hypercube, $\{-1,0,1\}^n$. The goal of this work is…
This article is concerned with the approximation of unbounded convex sets by polyhedra. While there is an abundance of literature investigating this task for compact sets, results on the unbounded case are scarce. We first point out the…
We study the lattice width of lattice-free polyhedra given by $\mathbf{A}\mathbf{x}\leq\mathbf{b}$ in terms of $\Delta(\mathbf{A})$, the maximal $n\times n$ minor in absolute value of $\mathbf{A}\in\mathbb{Z}^{m\times n}$. Our main…
Given a point set $P$ in the plane, we seek a subset $Q\subseteq P$, whose convex hull gives a smaller and thus simpler representation of the convex hull of $P$. Specifically, let $cost(Q,P)$ denote the Hausdorff distance between the convex…
We show that the maximum number of convex polygons in a triangulation of $n$ points in the plane is $O(1.5029^n)$. This improves an earlier bound of $O(1.6181^n)$ established by van Kreveld, L\"offler, and Pach (2012) and almost matches the…
We study the natural extended-variable formulation for the disjunction of $n+1$ polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We demonstrate that the convex hull $D$ in the natural extended-variable space $\mathbb{R}^{d+n}$ is given by full optimal big-M…
A quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) is an optimization problem in which the objective function is a quadratic function and the feasible region is defined by quadratic constraints. Solving non-convex QCQP to global…
A new approach to the local and global explanation is proposed. It is based on selecting a convex hull constructed for the finite number of points around an explained instance. The convex hull allows us to consider a dual representation of…
We consider a compact hyperbolic antiprism. It is a convex polyhedron with $2n$ vertices in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$. This polyhedron has a symmetry group $S_{2n}$ generated by a mirror-rotational symmetry of order $2n$, i.e.…
An n-gon is defined as a sequence \P=(V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of n points on the plane. An n-gon \P is said to be convex if the boundary of the convex hull of the set {V_0,...,V_{n-1}} of the vertices of \P coincides with the union of the edges…
We prove that for certain families of semi-algebraic convex bodies in 3 dimensions, the convex hull of $n$ disjoint bodies has $O(n\lambda_s(n))$ features, where $s$ is a constant depending on the family: $\lambda_s(n)$ is the maximum…
For $n\geq 3$ and $\Gamma$ a cocompact lattice acting on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, we investigate the average behaviour of the error term in the circle problem. First, we explore the local average of the error term over compact…
We develop a new simple approach to prove upper bounds for generalizations of the Heilbronn's triangle problem in higher dimensions. Among other things, we show the following: for fixed $d \ge 1$, any subset of $[0, 1]^d$ of size $n$…
A polyhedron in a three-dimensional hyperbolic space is said to be generalized if finite, ideal and truncated vertices are admitted. In virtue of Belletti's theorem (2021) the exact upper bound for volumes of generalized hyperbolic…
We show that: (1) unimodular simplices in a lattice 3-polytope cover a neighborhood of the boundary of the polytope if and only if the polytope is very ample, (2) the convex hull of lattice points in every ellipsoid in R^3 has a unimodular…
