Tarski ’ s Plank Problem Revisited
نویسنده
چکیده
In the 1930’s, Tarski introduced his plank problem at a time when the field Discrete Geometry was about to born. It is quite remarkable that Tarski’s question and its variants continue to generate interest in the geometric and analytic aspects of coverings by planks in the present time as well. The paper is of a survey type with some new results and with a list of open research problems on the discrete geometric side of the plank problem.

متن کاملThe Plank Problem for Symmetric Bodies
Given a symmetric convex body C and n hyperplanes in an Euclidean space, there is a translate of a multiple of C, at least 1 n+1 times as large, inside C, whose interior does not meet any of the hyperplanes. The result generalizes Bang's solution of the plank problem of Tarski and has applications to Diophantine approximation.
متن کاملPlank Theorems via Successive Inradii
In the 1930’s, Tarski introduced his plank problem at a time when the field discrete geometry was about to born. It is quite remarkable that Tarski’s question and its variants continue to generate interest in the geometric as well as analytic aspects of coverings by planks in the present time as well. Besides giving a short survey on the status of the affine plank conjecture of Bang (1950) we p...
متن کاملIntegral Points of Small Height Outside of a Hypersurface
Let F be a non-zero polynomial with integer coefficients in N variables of degree M . We prove the existence of an integral point of small height at which F does not vanish. Our basic bound depends on N and M only. We separately investigate the case when F is decomposable into a product of linear forms, and provide a more sophisticated bound. We also relate this problem to a certain extension o...
متن کاملNew Solutions for Fokker-Plank Equation of Special Stochastic Process via Lie Point Symmetries
In this paper Lie symmetry analysis is applied in order to find new solutions for Fokker Plank equation of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. This analysis classifies the solutions format of the Fokker Plank equation by using the Lie algebra of the symmetries of our considered stochastic process.
