Let
and assume that there is a countable collection of lines {L
i
: 1 i} such that (int cl S)
and ((int cl S) S) L
i has one-dimensional Lebesgue measure zero, 1 i. Then every 4 point subset ofS sees viaS a set of positive two-dimensional Lebesgue measure if and only if every finite subset ofS sees viaS such a set. Furthermore, a parallel result holds with two-dimensional replaced by one-dimensional. Finally, setS is finitely starlike if and only if every 5 points ofS see viaS a common point. In each case, the number 4 or 5 is best possible.Supported in part by NSF grant DMS-8705336. 相似文献

We will establish the following improved Krasnosel'skii theorems for the dimension of the kernel of a starshaped set: For each k and d, 0 k d, define f(d,k) = d+1 if k = 0 and f(d,k) = max{d+1,2d–2k+2} if 1 k d.Theorem 1. Let S be a compact, connected, locally starshaped set in Rd, S not convex. Then for a k with 0 k d, dim ker S k if and only if every f(d, k) lnc points of S are clearly visible from a common k-dimensional subset of S.Theorem 2. Let S be a nonempty compact set in Rd. Then for a k with 0 k d, dim ker S k if and only if every f (d, k) boundary points of S are clearly visible from a common k-dimensional subset of S. In each case, the number f(d, k) is best possible for every d and k. 相似文献

Let S be a compact set in Rd. Let p be a fixed point of S and let k be a fixed integer, 1 k <d. Then S is starshaped with p ker S if and only if for every k-dimensional flat F through p, F S is starshaped. Moreover, an analogue of this result holds for unions of starshaped sets as well. 相似文献

Let S be a compact, connected, locally starshaped set in Rd, S not convex. For every point of local nonconvexity q of S, define Aq to be the subset of S from which q is clearly visible via S. Then ker S = {conv Aq: q lnc S}. Furthermore, if every d+1 points of local nonconvexity of S are clearly visible from a common d-dimensional subset of S, then dim ker S = d. 相似文献

The result fails when the number three is replaced by four.As a partial converse, ifS is a union of three starshaped sets whose kernels containa, b, c, respectively, then the set of points in the boundary ofS clearly visible from at least one ofa, b, orc is dense in the boundary ofS.Supported in part by NSF grant DMS-8705336. 相似文献

We introduce a new combinatorial object, the double-permutation sequence, and use it to encode a family of mutually disjoint
compact convex sets in the plane in a way that captures many of its combinatorial properties. We use this encoding to give
a new proof of the Edelsbrunner-Sharir theorem that a collection of n compact convex sets in the plane cannot be met by straight lines in more than 2n-2 combinatorially distinct ways. The encoding generalizes the authors’ encoding of point configurations by “allowable sequences”
of permutations. Since it applies as well to a collection of compact connected sets with a specified pseudoline arrangement
of separators and double tangents, the result extends the Edelsbrunner-Sharir theorem to the case of geometric permutations
induced by pseudoline transversals compatible with .

Let $\cal{F}$ be a finite family of simply connected
orthogonal polygons in the plane. If every three (not necessarily
distinct) members of $\cal{F}$ have a nonempty intersection which
is starshaped via staircase paths, then the
intersection $\cap \{F : F\; \hbox{in}\; \cal{F}\}$
is a (nonempty) simply connected orthogonal polygon which is starshaped
via staircase paths. Moreover, the number three is best possible, even
with the additional requirement that the intersection in question be
nonempty. The result fails without the simple connectedness condition. 相似文献

Let S be a simply connected orthogonal polygon in the plane. The set S is a union of two sets which are starshaped via staircase paths (i.e., orthogonally starshaped) if and only if for every
three points of S, at least two of these points see (via staircase paths) a common point of S. Moreover, the simple connectedness condition cannot be deleted. 相似文献

Summary.
We establish the following Helly-type result for infinite families
of starshaped sets in
Define the function f on
{1, 2} by
f(1) = 4,
f(2) = 3.
Let
be a fixed positive number, and let
be a uniformly bounded family of compact sets
in the plane. For k = 1, 2, if every
f(k)
(not necessarily distinct) members of
intersect in a starshaped set whose
kernel contains a k-dimensional
neighborhood of radius
, then
is a starshaped set whose kernel is at least
k-dimensional.
The number f(k) is best in each case.
In addition, we present a few results concerning the dimension of
the kernel in an intersection of starshaped sets in
Some of these involve finite families of sets, while others
involve infinite families and make use of the Hausdorff metric. 相似文献

3 such that: (1) whenever three points x, y, z in S see each other via S, then conv{x, y, z}
S, and (2) every seven points in S see via S a common point. Then S is finitely starlike. The proof uses the topological version of Helly's theorem. 相似文献
