چکیده

Consider a 2n element colored point set, n points red and n points blue, in convex position in the plane. Erdős asked to estimate the number of points in the longest noncrossing path such that edges join points of different color and are straight line segments. Kynčl, Pach and Tóth in 2008 gave a construction proving the upper bound 43n+ O( √ n). This bound is conjectured to be tight. For an arbitrary coloring they gave a lower bound n+Ω( √

Separated matchings on colored convex sets

Erdős posed the following problem. Consider an equicolored point set of 2n points, n points red and n points blue, in the plane in convex position. We estimate the minimal number of points on the longest noncrossing path such that edges join points of different color and are straight line segments. The upper bound 4 3 n + O( √ n) is proved [7], [5] and is conjectured to be tight. The best known...

FUZZY HYPERVECTOR SPACES OVER VALUED FIELDS

In this note we first redefine the notion of a fuzzy hypervectorspace (see [1]) and then introduce some further concepts of fuzzy hypervectorspaces, such as fuzzy convex and balance fuzzy subsets in fuzzy hypervectorspaces over valued fields. Finally, we briefly discuss on the convex (balanced)hull of a given fuzzy set of a hypervector space.

Long Alternating Paths in Bicolored Point Sets

Given n red and n blue points in convex position in the plane, we show that there exists a noncrossing alternating path of length n + c √ n logn . We disprove a conjecture of Erdős by constructing an example without any such path of length greater than 4 3 n+ c′ √ n.

Happy Endings of noncrossing convex bodies . joint work with :

We introduce a combinatorial invariant of arrangements of compact convex sets in the plane, generalizing the notion of the order type of planar point sets. This allows us to define and study realization spaces, extending previous work on representability and isotopy by Levi, Ringel, Folkman and Lawrence, Goodman and Pollack, and Mnëv. With these tools at hand we attack the generalized Erdős-Sze...

Covering Paths for Planar Point Sets

Given n points in the plane, a covering path is a polygonal path that visits all the points. If no three points are collinear, every covering path requires at least n/2 segments, and n − 1 straight line segments obviously suffice even if the covering path is required to be noncrossing. We show that every set of n points in the plane admits a (possibly self-crossing) covering path consisting of ...
