The convex hull of a set K in space consists of points which are, in a certain sense, "surrounded" by K. When K is a closed curve, we define its higher hulls, consisting of points which are "multiply surrounded" by the curve. Our main…

Taking the convex hull of a curve is a natural construction in computational geometry. On the other hand, path signatures, central in stochastic analysis, capture geometric properties of curves, although their exact interpretation for…

It is shown that a simple closed curve in $\mathbb C^n$ that is a uniform limit of rectifiable simple closed curves each of which has nontrivial polynomial hull has itself nontrivial polynomial hull. In case the limit curve is rectifiable,…

High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to the sphere and the hyperbolic…

It is well known that the convex hull of $\{(x,y,xy)\}$, where $(x,y)$ is constrained to lie in a box, is given by the Reformulation-Linearization Technique (RLT) constraints. Belotti {\em et al.\,}(2010) and Miller {\em et al.\,}(2011)…

Writing an uncomplicated, robust, and scalable three-dimensional convex hull algorithm is challenging and problematic. This includes, coplanar and collinear issues, numerical accuracy, performance, and complexity trade-offs. While there are…

We describe convex hulls of the simplest compact space curves, reducible quartics consisting of two circles. When the circles do not meet in complex projective space, their algebraic boundary contains an irrational ruled surface of degree…

This article describes a method to compute successive convex approximations of the convex hull of a set of points in R^n that are the solutions to a system of polynomial equations over the reals. The method relies on sums of squares of…

We consider the nonconvex set $\mathcal S_n = \{(x,X,z): X = x x^T, \; x (1-z) =0,\; x \geq 0,\; z \in \{0,1\}^n\}$, which is closely related to the feasible region of several difficult nonconvex optimization problems such as the best…

We study the convex hull of the graph of a quadratic function $f(\mathbf{x})=\sum_{ij\in E}x_ix_j$, where the sum is over the edge set of a graph $G$ with vertex set $\{1,\dots,n\}$. Using an approach proposed by Gupte et al. (Discrete…

We propose a cut-based algorithm for finding all vertices and all facets of the convex hull of all integer points of a polyhedron defined by a system of linear inequalities. Our algorithm DDM Cuts is based on the Gomory cuts and the dynamic…

Seeking the convex hull of an object is a very fundamental problem arising from various tasks. In this work, we propose two variational convex hull models using level set representation for 2-dimensional data. The first one is an exact…

Arithmetic automata recognize infinite words of digits denoting decompositions of real and integer vectors. These automata are known expressive and efficient enough to represent the whole set of solutions of complex linear constraints…

We prove that every polynomially convex arc is contained in a polynomially convex simple closed curve. We also establish results about polynomial hulls of arcs and curves that are locally rectifiable outside a polynomially convex subset.

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…

This paper investigates the transformation of a convex hull, derived from a d-dimensional point cloud, into a concave surface. Our primary focus is on the development of a methodology that ensures all points in the point cloud are…

Pick $N$ random points $U_1,\cdots,U_{N}$ independently and uniformly in a triangle ABC with area 1, and take the convex hull of the set $\{A,B,U_1,\cdots,U_{N}\}$. The boundary of this convex hull is a convex chain $V_0=B,V_1,\cdots,$…

A \emph{thrackle} is a graph drawn in the plane so that every pair of its edges meet exactly once, either at a common end vertex or in a proper crossing. Conway's thrackle conjecture states that the number of edges is at most the number of…

We prove that the combinatorial optimization problem of determining the hull number of a partial cube is NP-complete. This makes partial cubes the minimal graph class for which NP-completeness of this problem is known and improves some…

We consider the convex quadratic optimization problem with indicator variables and arbitrary constraints on the indicators. We show that a convex hull description of the associated mixed-integer set in an extended space with a quadratic…
