چکیده
We study the problem of how to split many point sets in \(\mathbb {R}^d\) into smaller parts using a few (shared) splitting hyperplanes. This is related classical Ham-Sandwich Theorem. provide logarithmic approximation optimal solution greedy algorithm for submodular optimization.

On Point Sets with Many Unit Distances in Few Directions
We study the problem of the maximum number of unit distances among n points in the plane under the additional restriction that we count only those unit distances that occur in a xed set of k directions taking the maximum over all sets of n points and all sets of k directions We prove that for xed k and su ciently large n n k the extremal sets are essentially sections of lattices bounded by edge...
متن کاملOptimal point sets determining few distinct triangles
We generalize work of Erdős and Fishburn to study the structure of finite point sets that determine few distinct triangles. Specifically, we ask for a given t, what is the maximum number of points that can be placed in the plane to determine exactly t distinct triangles? Denoting this quantity by F (t), we show that F (1) = 4, F (2) = 5, and we completely characterize the optimal configurations...
متن کاملDense point sets with many halving lines
We construct a dense point set of n points in the plane with ne( √ logn) halving lines. This improves the bound O(n log n) of Edelsbrunner, Valtr and Welzl from 1997. We also observe that the upper bound on the maximum number of halving lines of dense point set can be improved to O(n). Our construction can be generalized to higher dimensions, for any d we construct a dense point set of n points...
متن کاملHow many phases meet at the chiral critical point?
We explore the phase diagram of Nambu-Jona-Lasinio-type models near the chiral critical point allowing for phases with spatially inhomogeneous chiral condensates. In the chiral limit it turns out that the region in the mean-field phase diagram where those phases are energetically preferred very generically reaches out to the chiral critical point. The preferred inhomogeneous ground state in thi...
متن کاملGeneralized Ham-Sandwich Cuts for Well Separated Point Sets
Bárány, Hubard, and Jerónimo recently showed that for given well separated convex bodies S1, . . . , Sd in R and constants βi ∈ [0, 1], there exists a unique hyperplane h with the property that Vol(h ∩Si) = βi·Vol(Si); h is the closed positive transversal halfspace of h, and h is a “generalized ham-sandwich cut”. We give a discrete analogue for a set S of n points in R which is partitioned into...
