Helly-Type Theorems for Line Transversals to Disjoint Unit Balls
We prove Helly-type theorems for line transversals to disjoint unit balls in Rd . In particular, we show that a family of n 2d disjoint unit balls in Rd has a line transversal if,...

On lines avoiding unit balls in three dimensions
Let B be a set of n unit balls in R3 . We show that the combinatorial complexity of the space of lines in R3 that avoid all the balls of B is O(n3+ε ), for any ε > 0. This re...
