Before we proceed with rigorous formulations and applications, we want to give a very informal and “easy-to-visualize” description of one of the central results of the paper. Assume that we are given an n-plane P ⊂ RN , n < N , a collection of oriented n-planes ei, i = 1, 2, . . . k, and a collection of positive reals ai, i = 1, 2, . . . k. We want to know whether there exists an oriented polyh...

Emotional Intelligence (EI) has generated a broad interest both in the lay and scientific fields. Since the development of the concept, research on EI is increasing exponentially. Prestigious scientists from different lines of research contribute to this Special Issue on EI, assessing important theoretical and empirical topics on this construct. The first section of the Special Issue comprises ...
