The Volume as a Metric Invariant of Polyhedra
It is proved that in R3 the volume of any polyhedron is a root of some polynomial with coefficients depending only on the combinatorial structure and the metric of the polyhedron....

Multimatroids II. Orthogonality, minors and connectivity
A multimatroid is a combinatorial structure that encompasses matroids, delta-matroids and isotropic systems. This structure has been introduced to unify a theorem of Edmonds on th...

Separoids, Their Categories and a Hadwiger-Type Theorem for Transversals
In this paper we study the topology of transversals to a family of convex sets as a subset of a Grassmanian manifold. This topology seems to be ruled by a combinatorial structure w...

Embeddability of arrangements of pseudocircles into the sphere
An arrangement of pseudocircles is a finite set of oriented closed Jordan curves each two of which cross each other in exactly two points. To describe the combinatorial structure ...

Recursive Teaching Dimension, Learning Complexity, and Maximum Classes
This paper is concerned with the combinatorial structure of concept classes that can be learned from a small number of examples. We show that the recently introduced notion of recu...

The Partition Technique for Overlays of Envelopes
We obtain a near-tight bound of O(n3+ε ), for any ε > 0, on the complexity of the overlay of the minimization diagrams of two collections of surfaces in four dimensions. This...
