Ball dribbling with an underactuated continuous-time control phase
— Ball dribbling is a central element of basketball. One main challenge for realizing basketball robots is to stabilize periodic motions of the ball. This task is nontrivial due ...

Identification and Elimination of Interior Points for the Minimum Enclosing Ball Problem
Given A := {a1, . . . , am} Rn, we consider the problem of reducing the input set for the computation of the minimum enclosing ball of A. In this note, given an approximate soluti...

A Combinatorial Property of Points and Balls, a Colored Version
Any finite set X ⊂ Rd colored with d+3 2 colors, contains a rainbow subset Y ⊂ X, such that any ball that contains Y contains a positive fraction of the points of X. The bound...

3D Trajectories from a Single Viewpoint using Shadows
We consider the problem of obtaining the 3D trajectory of a ball from a sequence of images taken with a camera which is possibly rotating and zooming (but not translating). Techni...
