Transversal numbers of translates of a convex body
Let F be a family of translates of a fixed convex set M in Rn. Let (F) and (F) denote the transversal number and the independence number of F, respectively. We show that (F) (F) 8...

Piercing Translates and Homothets of a Convex Body
According to a classical result of Gr¨unbaum, the transversal number τ(F) of any family F of pairwise-intersecting translates or homothets of a convex body C in Rd is bounded by...
