We investigate which planar point sets allow simultaneous straight-line embeddings of all planar graphs on a fixed number of vertices. We first show that $(1.293-o(1))n$ points are required to find a straight-line drawing of each $n$-vertex…
An ordinary plane of a finite set of points in real 3-space with no three collinear is a plane intersecting the set in exactly three points. We prove a structure theorem for sets of points spanning few ordinary planes. Our proof relies on…
Measuring the distance between data points is fundamental to many statistical techniques, such as dimension reduction or clustering algorithms. However, improvements in data collection technologies has led to a growing versatility of…
Alternative novel measures of the distance between any two partitions of a n-set are proposed and compared, together with a main existing one, namely 'partition-distance' D(.,.). The comparison achieves by checking their restriction to…
In this article we prove a theorem about the number of directions determined by less then $q$ affine points, similar to the result of Blokhuis et al. (in J. Comb. Theory Ser. A 86(1), 187-196, 1999) on the number of directions determined by…
In this article we proof the existence of 4-regular planar unit-distance graphs consisting only of unit triangles without additional triangles. It is shown that the smallest number of unit triangles is $\leq$6422.
Estimates for invariant distances of convexifiable, $\C$-convexifiable and planar domains are given.
We study nested partitions of $R^d$ obtained by successive cuts using hyperplanes with fixed directions. We establish the number of measures that can be split evenly simultaneously by taking a partition of this kind and then distributing…
We consider mappings satisfying an upper bound for the distortion of families of curves. We establish lower bounds for the distortion of distances under such mappings. As applications, we obtain theorems on the discreteness of the limit…
Consider a set $X\subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ which is 1-dense, namely, it intersects every unit ball. We show that we can get from any point to any other point in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in $n$ steps so that the intermediate points are in $X$, and the…
We obtain new lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar Borel sets of dimension slightly larger than $1$, improving recent estimates of Keleti and Shmerkin, and of Liu in this regime. In…
It is an elementary fact that if we fix an arbitrary set of $d+1$ affine independent points $\{p_0,\dots p_d\}$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, then the Euclidean distances $\{|x-p_j|\}_{j=0}^d$ determine the point $x$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ uniquely. In…
There are several notions of duality between lines and points. In this note, it is shown that all these can be studied in a unified way. Most interesting properties are independent of specific choices. It is also shown that either dual…
We study the distinguishability notion given by Wootters for states represented by probability density functions. This presents the particularity that it can also be used for defining a distance in chaotic unidimensional maps. Based on that…
In this paper, we prove a geometrical inequality which states that for any four points on a hemisphere with the unit radius, the largest sum of distances between the points is 4+4*sqrt(2). In our method, we have constructed a rectangular…
An ordinal-valued metric taking its values in the set of all countable ordinals can be assigned to a metrizable set of nodes in a transfinite graph. Then, a variety of results concerning nodal eccentricities, radii, diameters, centers,…
It is shown that one can count $k$-edge paths in an $n$-vertex graph and $m$-set $k$-packings on an $n$-element universe, respectively, in time ${n \choose k/2}$ and ${n \choose mk/2}$, up to a factor polynomial in $n$, $k$, and $m$; in…
The problem of finding the largest number of points in the unit cross-polytope such that the $l_{1}$-distance between any two distinct points is at least $2r$ is investigated for $r\in\left(1-\frac{1}{n},1\right]$ in dimensions $\geq2$ and…
In this paper, we give upper and lower bounds on the number of Steiner points required to construct a strictly convex quadrilateral mesh for a planar point set. In particular, we show that $3{\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor}$ internal Steiner…
The concepts of similarity and distance are crucial in data mining. We consider the problem of defining the distance between two data sets by comparing summary statistics computed from the data sets. The initial definition of our distance…
