چکیده

Given a finite point set X in the plane, the degree of a pair {x, y} ⊂ X is the number of empty triangles t = conv{x, y, z}, where empty means t∩X = {x, y, z}. Define degX as the maximal degree of a pair in X. Our main result is that if X is a random sample of n independent and uniform points from a fixed convex body, then degX ≥ cn/ lnn in expectation.

On edge-disjoint empty triangles of point sets

Let P be a set of points in the plane in general position. Any three points x, y, x 2 P determine a triangle (x, y, z) of the plane. We say that (x, y, z) is empty if its interior contains no element of P . In this paper we study the following problems: What is the size of the largest family of edge-disjoint triangles of a point set? How many triangulations of P are needed to cover all the empt...

Fans and Bundles in the Graph of Pairwise Sums and Products

Let G+ be the graph on the vertex-set the positive integers N, with n joined to m if n 6= m and for some x, y ∈ N we have x+y = n and x ·y = m . A pair of triangles sharing an edge (i.e., a K4 with an edge deleted) and containing three consecutive numbers is called a 2-fan, and three triangles on five numbers having one number in common and containing four consecutive numbers is called a 3-fan....

بررسی اثر تزویج متقابل بر مشخصات تشعشعی یک آرایه آنتن مسطح محدود شامل پچ های مستطیلی

In this paper a novel method for computing the radiation pattern and also the input impedance of a planar rectangular micro-strip antenna array with consideration of mutual coupling and mutual impedance is presented. Each two triangles with a common edge make an Edge element or RWG. Any such edge element is considered as an infinitesimal dipole. The electrical currents over each dipole can be c...

The Maximum Number of Empty Congruent Triangles Determined by a Point Set

Let be a set of points in the plane and consider a family of (nondegenerate) pairwise congruent triangles whose vertices belong to . While the number of such triangles can grow superlinearly in — as it happens in lattice sections of the integer grid — it has been conjectured by Brass that the number of pairwise congruent empty triangles is only at most linear. We disprove this conjecture by con...
