On Pólya’s Orchard Problem
In 1918 Pólya formulated the following problem: “How thick must the trunks of the trees in a regularly spaced circular orchard grow if they are to block completely the view from the center?”(Pólya and Szegő [2]). We study a more general orchard model, namely any domain that is compact and convex, and find an expression for the minimal radius of the trees. As examples, solutions for rhombus-shap...
متن کاملChromatic Properties of Generic Planar Configurations of Points
We study the Orchard relation defined in [3] for generic configurations of points in the plane (also called order types). We introduce infinitesimally-close points and analyse the relation of this notion with the Orchard relation. The second part of the paper deals with monochromatic configurations (for the Orchard relation). We give the complete list of all monochromatic configurations up to 7...
متن کاملThe Dirac-Motzkin Problem on Ordinary Lines and the Orchard Problem (Invited Talk)
Suppose you have n points in the plane, not all on a line. A famous theorem of Sylvester-Gallai asserts that there is at least one ordinary line, that is to say a line passing through precisely two of the n points. But how many ordinary lines must there be? It turns out that the answer is at least n/2 (if n is even) and roughly 3n/4 (if n is odd), provided that n is sufficiently large. This res...
متن کاملA Computational Model for Radio Wave Propagation within Wireless Sensor Networks in Orchard Environment
A computational model for electromagnetic wave propagation through tree orchards is presented. Branches are modeled geometrically as tapered cylinders and trees are defined as collections of branches; each branch has its own starting point and orientation, expressed as three Euler angles. Tree canopies are modeled as dielectric spheres of appropriate dimensions. To simulate a tree row, copies o...
متن کاملThe impact of prolonged flood-irrigation on leaf gas exchange in mature pecans in an orchard setting
Woody perennials subjected to root oxygen-stress often respond with varying levels of reduced assimilation and leaf gas exchange. Yet in most of these studies, seedlings grown in pots were subjected to experimental conditions that rarely exist in nature for mature trees. To determine if flooding mature orchard-grown pecan (Carya illinoiensis (Wangh) K. Koch) results in a similar depressed photo...
