Lines avoiding balls in three dimensions revisited
Let B be a collection of n arbitrary balls in R3 . We establish an almost-tight upper bound of O(n3+ε ), for any ε > 0, on the complexity of the space F(B) of all the lines t...

On the Quantum Query Complexity of Local Search in Two and Three Dimensions
The quantum query complexity of searching for local optima has been a subject of much interest in the recent literature. For the d-dimensional grid graphs, the complexity has been...

On the Union of Cylinders in Three Dimensions
We show that the combinatorial complexity of the union of n infinite cylinders in R3 , having arbitrary radii, is O(n2+ε ), for any ε > 0; the bound is almost tight in the w...

Distinct distances in three and higher dimensions
Improving an old result of Clarkson et al., we show that the number of distinct distances determined by a set P of n points in three-dimensional space is (n77/141) = (n0.546 ), fo...
