Positive bases, cones, Helly type theorems

Imre Barany

Assume that is a positive integer and $\C$ is a finite collection of convex bodies in . We prove a Helly type theorem: If for every subfamily $\C^*\subset \C$ of si…

Tverberg's theorem, a new proof

Imre Barany

We give a new proof Tverberg's famous theorem: For every set with , there is a partition of into sets such that $\bigcap…

Piercing the chessboard

Gergely Ambrus, Imre Bárány, Péter Frankl +1

We consider the minimum number of lines and needed to intersect or pierce, respectively, all the cells of the chessboard. Determining these values can also…

Pairwise intersecting convex sets and cylinders in

Imre Barany

We prove that given a finite collection of cylinders in with the property that any two them intersect, then there is a line intersecting an fraction of the cylinders whe…

Cells in the box and a hyperplane

Imre Barany, Peter Frankl

It is well-known that a line can intersect at most cells of the chessboard. Here we consider the high dimensional version: how many cells of the -dimensional…

Theorems of Carathéodory, Helly, and Tverberg without dimension

Karim Adiprasito, Imre Bárány, Nabil H. Mustafa +1

We prove a no-dimensional version of Carathédory's theorem: given an -element set , a point $a \in \conv P$, and an integer , , there is a subse…
