Suppose d > 2, n > d+1, and we have a set P of n points in d-dimensional Euclidean space. Then P contains a subset Q of d points such that for any p ∈ P, the convex hull of Q∪{p} does not contain the origin in its interior.We also show that for non-emp ...
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a constrained Minkowski sum: for two (finite) point-sets P, Q subset of R-2 and a set of k inequalities Ax >= b, it is defined as the point-set (P circle plus Q)(Ax >= b) = {x = p + q vertical bar p is an element o ...
Convex parameterization of fixed-order robust stabilizing controllers for systems with polytopic uncertainty is represented as an LMI using KYP Lemma. This parameterization is a convex inner-approximation of the whole non- convex set of stabilizing control ...
Any finite, separately convex, positively homogeneous function on R2 is convex. This was first established by the first author ["Direct methods in calculus of variations", Springer-Verlag (1989)]. Here we give a new and concise proof of this re ...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a constrained Minkowski sumwhich for two (finite) point-sets P,Q R2 and a set of k inequalities Ax b is defined as the point-set (P Q)Ax b= x = p+q | P, q Q, Ax b. We show that typical subsequ ...
We prove a Hadwiger transversal-type result, characterizing convex position on a family of non-crossing convex bodies in the plane. This theorem suggests a definition for the order type of a family of convex bodies, generalizing the usual definition of ord ...
In this thesis we deal with three different but connected questions. Firstly (cf. Chapter 2) we make a systematic study of the generalized notions of convexity for sets. We study the notions of polyconvex, quasiconvex and rank one convex set. We remark tha ...
Max-min fairness is widely used in various areas of networking. In every case where it is used, there is a proof of existence and one or several algorithms for computing it; in most, but not all cases, they are based on the notion of bottlenecks. In spite ...
