We prove extensions of Halman's discrete Helly theorem for axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Halman's theorem says that, given a set $S$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, if $F$ is a finite family of axis-parallel boxes such that the intersection of…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $n$ axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $\alpha\in (1-1/d,1]$ a real number. There exists a real number $\beta(\alpha )>0$ such that if there are $\alpha {n\choose 2}$ intersecting pairs in…

The main purpose of this paper is to study extremal results on the intersection graphs of boxes in $\R^d$. We calculate exactly the maximal number of intersecting pairs in a family $\F$ of $n$ boxes in $\R^d$ with the property that no $k+1$…

In 2008, Halman showed that for any finite set $P\subset \mathbb R^d$ and any finite family $\mathcal{B}$ of axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$, if the intersection of $P$ and any subfamily $\mathcal{B}' \subseteq\mathcal{B}$ of size at…

In 2008, Halman proved a discrete Helly-type theorem for axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb R^d$. Very recently, this result was extended to the $(p,q)$ setting with $p \geq q \geq d+1$ by Edwards and Sober\'on, and subsequently to the case $p…

Helly's theorem and its variants show that for a family of convex sets in Euclidean space, local intersection patterns influence global intersection patterns. A classical result of Eckhoff in 1988 provided an optimal fractional Helly…

A finite family $\mathcal F$ of convex sets is $k$-intersecting in $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ if the intersection of every subset of $k$ convex sets in $\mathcal F$ contains a point in $S$. The Helly number of $S$ is the minimum $k$, if it…

We study parameters of the convexity spaces associated with families of sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ where every intersection between $t$ sets of the family has its Betti numbers bounded from above by a function of $t$. Although the Radon number…

Two celebrated extensions of Helly's theorem are the Fractional Helly theorem of Katchalski and Liu (1979) and the Quantitative Volume theorem of B\'ar\'any, Katchalski, and Pach (1982). Improving on several recent works, we prove an…

Helly's theorem is a classical result concerning the intersection patterns of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Two important generalizations are the colorful version and the fractional version. Recently, B\'{a}r\'{a}ny et al. combined the…

We prove that for a topological space X with the property that $H_p(U)=0$ for $p\geq d$ and every open subset $U$ of $X$, a finite family of open sets in $X$ has nonempty intersection if for any subfamily of size $j$, $1\leq j \leq d+1$,…

A family $\mathcal{F}$ of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set is called $s$-almost $t$-intersecting if each member is $t$-disjoint with at most $s$ members. In this paper, we prove that, if $\left|\mathcal{F}\right|$ is maximum, then $\mathcal{F}$…

A Helly-type theorem for diameter provides a bound on the diameter of the intersection of a finite family of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ given some information on the diameter of the intersection of all sufficiently small subfamilies. We…

We prove a fractional Helly theorem for $k$-flats intersecting fat convex sets. A family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets is said to be $\rho$-fat if every set in the family contains a ball and is contained in a ball such that the ratio of the radii…

The colorful Helly theorem and Tverberg's theorem are fundamental results in discrete geometry. We prove a theorem which interpolates between the two. In particular, we show the following for any integers $d \geq m \geq 1$ and $k$ a prime…

We study versions of Helly's theorem that guarantee that the intersection of a family of convex sets in $R^d$ has a large diameter. This includes colourful, fractional and $(p,q)$ versions of Helly's theorem. In particular, the fractional…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $k$-dimensional subspaces of an $n$-dimensional vector space. Write $\mathcal{D}_{\mathcal{F}}(H;t)=\{F\in \mathcal{F}\colon \dim(F\cap H)\leq t \}$ for a subspace $H$. The family $\mathcal{F}$ is called…

We prove discrete Helly-type theorems for pseudohalfplanes, which extend recent results of Jensen, Joshi and Ray about halfplanes. Among others we show that given a family of pseudohalfplanes $\cal H$ and a set of points $P$, if every…

The 1913 Helly's theorem states that any family ${\cal K}$ of $n\geq d+1$ convex sets in ${\mathbb R}^d$ can be pierced by a single point if and only if any $d+1$ of ${\cal K}$'s elements can. In 2002 Alon, Kalai, Matou\v{s}ek and Meshulam…

We introduce a new variant of quantitative Helly-type theorems: the minimal \emph{"homothetic distance"} of the intersection of a family of convex sets to the intersection of a subfamily of a fixed size. As an application, we establish the…
