Order Types of Convex Bodies [PDF]
We give new bounds on the Erdos-Szekeres theorems for convex bodies of Bisztriczky and Fejes Toth and of Pach and Toth. We derive them from a combinatorial characterization of convex position of a family of planar convex bodies. This characterization confirms that the concept of Order Type for points can be extended to noncrossing families of convex ...

On the vertex index of convex bodies
We introduce the vertex index, vein(K), of a given centrally symmetric convex body K, which, in a sense, measures how well K can be inscribed into a convex polytope with small number of vertices. This index is closely connected to the illumination parameter of a body, introduced earlier by the first named author, and, thus, related to the famous ...

The spherical convex floating body
For a convex body on the Euclidean unit sphere the spherical convex floating body is introduced. The asymptotic behavior of the volume difference of a spherical convex body and its spherical floating body is investigated. This gives rise to a new spherical area measure, the floating area.

The Characteristic Properties of the Minimal Lp-Mean Width
Giannopoulos proved that a smooth convex body K has minimal mean width position if and only if the measure hK(u)σ(du), supported on Sn-1, is isotropic. Further, Yuan and Leng extended the minimal mean width to the minimal Lp-mean width and characterized ...

Chasing Convex Bodies Optimally [PDF]
In the chasing convex bodies problem, an online player receives a request sequence of $N$ convex sets $K_1,\dots, K_N$ contained in a normed space $\mathbb R^d$. The player starts at $x_0\in \mathbb R^d$, and after observing each $K_n$ picks a new point $x_n\in K_n$. At each step the player pays a movement cost of $||x_n-x_{n-1}||$.

Some Inequalities for the Lp-Curvature Image
Lutwak introduced the notion of Lp-curvature image and proved an inequality for the volumes of convex body and its Lp-curvature image. In this paper, we first give an monotonic property of Lp-curvature image.

A new ant species, Monomorium dryhimi, is described based on workers from a single colony collected in Al Bahah, Asir Province, Saudi Arabia. This is the fourth species of the Monomorium monomorium-group collected from Arabian Peninsula, and appears to ...

Energy-Efficient Optimization in Multi-Sensor WBAN With Multi-Antenna AP
This paper optimizes the energy efficiency performance by joint time and beamforming weights allocation in a wireless body area network (WBAN), which consists of a multi-antenna access point (AP), in particular, the AP intends to broadcast radio ...
