A planar point set is in convex position precisely when it has a convex polygonization, that is, a polygonization with maximum interior angle measure at most \pi. We can thus talk about the convexity of a set of points in terms of the…

Estimating the volume of a convex body is a canonical problem in theoretical computer science. Its study has led to major advances in randomized algorithms, Markov chain theory, and computational geometry. In particular, determining the…
