We develop a sketching algorithm to find the point on the convex hull of a dataset, closest to a query point outside it. Studying the convex hull of datasets can provide useful information about their geometric structure and their…
The simplest way to generate a lattice of convex sets is to consider an initial set of points and draw segments, triangles, and any convex hull from it, then intersect them to obtain new points, and so forth. The result is an infinite…
The problem of minimizing a multilinear function of binary variables is a well-studied NP-hard problem. The set of solutions of the standard linearization of this problem is called the multilinear set. We study a cardinality constrained…
Prune-and-search is an important paradigm for solving many important geometric problems. We show that the general prune-and-search technique can be implemented where the objects are given in read-only memory. As examples we consider…
This work considers special types of interval linear systems - overdetermined systems. Simply said these systems have more equations than variables. The solution set of an interval linear system is a collection of all solutions of all…
The partition of a problem into smaller sub-problems satisfying certain properties is often a key ingredient in the design of divide-and-conquer algorithms. For questions related to location, the partition problem can be modeled, in…
We study disjunctive conic sets involving a general regular (closed, convex, full dimensional, and pointed) cone K such as the nonnegative orthant, the Lorentz cone or the positive semidefinite cone. In a unified framework, we introduce…
In this paper we deal with problems concerning the volume of the convex hull of two "connecting" bodies. After a historical background we collect some results, methods and open problems, respectively.
We present a novel class of methods to compute functions of matrices or their action on vectors that are suitable for parallel programming. Solving appropriate simple linear systems of equations in parallel (or computing the inverse of…
We compute the number of points over finite fields of some algebraic varieties related to cluster algebras of finite type. More precisely, these varieties are the fibers of the projection map from the cluster variety to the affine space of…
The $\texttt{IntegerHull}$ function is part of Maple's $\texttt{PolyhedralSets}$ library, which calculates the integer hull of a given polyhedral set. This algorithm works by translating the supporting hyperplanes of the facets of the input…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. We consider a variation of the classical Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres problem, presenting efficient algorithms with $O(n^3)$ running time and $O(n^2)$ space complexity that compute: (1) A subset $S$ of $P$…
This paper evaluates several improvements to the memory layout of convex hulls to improve computation times for support point queries. The support point query is a fundamental part of common collision algorithms, and the work presented…
We describe an algorithm for computing the convex hull of a finite collection of points in the affine building of SL_d(K), for K a field with discrete valuation. These convex hulls describe the relations among a finite collection of…
Let a polyhedral convex set be given by a finite number of linear inequalities and consider the problem to project this set onto a subspace. This problem, called polyhedral projection problem, is shown to be equivalent to multiple objective…
L$^\natural$ (natural)-convex functions encompass a large class of nonlinear functions over general integer domains and arise in a wide range of real-world applications. We explore the minimization of L$^\natural$-convex functions, of…
We prove a fairly general inequality that estimates the number of lattice points in a ball of positive radius in general position in a Euclidean space. The bound is uniform over lattices induced by a matrix having a bounded operator norm.
We consider the nonlinear integer programming problem of minimizing a quadratic function over the integer points in variable dimension satisfying a system of linear inequalities. We show that when the Graver basis of the matrix defining the…
We investigate convexification for convex quadratic optimization with step function penalties. Such problems can be cast as mixed-integer quadratic optimization problems, where binary variables are used to encode the non-convex step…
A linear program with linear complementarity constraints (LPCC) requires the minimization of a linear objective over a set of linear constraints together with additional linear complementarity constraints. This class has emerged as a…
