RANDOM
Sketching Distances in Monotone Graph Classes

Authors: Louis Esperet, Nathaniel Harms, and Andrey Kupavskii

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 245, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2022)


Abstract
We study the problems of adjacency sketching, small-distance sketching, and approximate distance threshold (ADT) sketching for monotone classes of graphs. The algorithmic problem is to assign random sketches to the vertices of any graph G in the class, so that adjacency, exact distance thresholds, or approximate distance thresholds of two vertices u,v can be decided (with probability at least 2/3) from the sketches of u and v, by a decoder that does not know the graph. The goal is to determine when sketches of constant size exist. Our main results are that, for monotone classes of graphs: constant-size adjacency sketches exist if and only if the class has bounded arboricity; constant-size small-distance sketches exist if and only if the class has bounded expansion; constant-size ADT sketches imply that the class has bounded expansion; any class of constant expansion (i.e. any proper minor closed class) has a constant-size ADT sketch; and a class may have arbitrarily small expansion without admitting a constant-size ADT sketch.

Almost Sharp Bounds on the Number of Discrete Chains in the Plane

Authors: Nóra Frankl and Andrey Kupavskii

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 164, 36th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2020)


Abstract
The following generalisation of the Erdős unit distance problem was recently suggested by Palsson, Senger and Sheffer. For a sequence δ=(δ₁,… ,δ_k) of k distances, a (k+1)-tuple (p₁,… ,p_{k+1}) of distinct points in ℝ^d is called a (k,δ)-chain if ‖p_j-p_{j+1}‖ = δ_j for every 1 ≤ j ≤ k. What is the maximum number C_k^d(n) of (k,δ)-chains in a set of n points in ℝ^d, where the maximum is taken over all δ? Improving the results of Palsson, Senger and Sheffer, we essentially determine this maximum for all k in the planar case. It is only for k ≡ 1 (mod 3) that the answer depends on the maximum number of unit distances in a set of n points. We also obtain almost sharp results for even k in dimension 3.

The Crossing Tverberg Theorem

Authors: Radoslav Fulek, Bernd Gärtner, Andrey Kupavskii, Pavel Valtr, and Uli Wagner

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 129, 35th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2019)


Abstract
The Tverberg theorem is one of the cornerstones of discrete geometry. It states that, given a set X of at least (d+1)(r-1)+1 points in R^d, one can find a partition X=X_1 cup ... cup X_r of X, such that the convex hulls of the X_i, i=1,...,r, all share a common point. In this paper, we prove a strengthening of this theorem that guarantees a partition which, in addition to the above, has the property that the boundaries of full-dimensional convex hulls have pairwise nonempty intersections. Possible generalizations and algorithmic aspects are also discussed. As a concrete application, we show that any n points in the plane in general position span floor[n/3] vertex-disjoint triangles that are pairwise crossing, meaning that their boundaries have pairwise nonempty intersections; this number is clearly best possible. A previous result of Alvarez-Rebollar et al. guarantees floor[n/6] pairwise crossing triangles. Our result generalizes to a result about simplices in R^d,d >=2.

New Lower Bounds for epsilon-Nets

Authors: Andrey Kupavskii, Nabil Mustafa, and János Pach

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 51, 32nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2016)


Abstract
Following groundbreaking work by Haussler and Welzl (1987), the use of small epsilon-nets has become a standard technique for solving algorithmic and extremal problems in geometry and learning theory. Two significant recent developments are: (i) an upper bound on the size of the smallest epsilon-nets for set systems, as a function of their so-called shallow-cell complexity (Chan, Grant, Konemann, and Sharpe); and (ii) the construction of a set system whose members can be obtained by intersecting a point set in R^4 by a family of half-spaces such that the size of any epsilon-net for them is at least (1/(9*epsilon)) log (1/epsilon) (Pach and Tardos). The present paper completes both of these avenues of research. We (i) give a lower bound, matching the result of Chan et al., and (ii) generalize the construction of Pach and Tardos to half-spaces in R^d, for any d >= 4, to show that the general upper bound of Haussler and Welzl for the size of the smallest epsilon-nets is tight.
