A survey of mass partitions

E Roldán-Pensado, P Soberón - Bulletin of the American Mathematical …, 2022 - ams.org
Mass partition problems describe the partitions we can induce on a family of measures or
finite sets of points in Euclidean spaces by dividing the ambient space into pieces. In this …

Equipartitions and Mahler volumes of symmetric convex bodies

M Fradelizi, A Hubard, M Meyer… - American Journal of …, 2022 - muse.jhu.edu
Following ideas of Iriyeh and Shibata we give a short proof of the three-dimensional Mahler
conjecture for symmetric convex bodies. Our contributions include, in particular, simple self …

ENVY‐FREE DIVISION USING MAPPING DEGREE

S Avvakumov, R Karasev - Mathematika, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper we study envy‐free division problems. The classical approach to such
problems, used by David Gale, reduces to considering continuous maps of a simplex to itself …

Discrete geometry on colored point sets in the plane—a survey

M Kano, J Urrutia - Graphs and Combinatorics, 2021 - Springer
Discrete geometry on colored point sets in the plane has a long history, but this research
area has been extensively developed in the last 2 decades. In 2003, a short survey entitled …

Persistent equivariant cohomology

H Adams, E Lagoda, M Moy, N Sadovek… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
This article has two goals. First, we hope to give an accessible introduction to persistent
equivariant cohomology. Given a topological group $ G $ acting on a filtered space …

Topological methods in discrete geometry

RT Živaljević - Handbook of Discrete and Computational …, 2017 - taylorfrancis.com
A problem is solved or some other goal achieved by “topological methods” if in our
arguments we appeal to the “form,” the “shape,” the “global” rather than “local” structure of …

Equipartition of a segment

S Avvakumov, R Karasev - Mathematics of Operations …, 2023 - pubsonline.informs.org
We prove that, for any positive integer m, a segment may be partitioned into m possibly
degenerate or empty segments with equal values of a continuous function f evaluated on …

Measure partitions using hyperplanes with fixed directions

RN Karasev, E Roldán-Pensado, P Soberón - Israel journal of …, 2016 - Springer
We study nested partitions of R d obtained by successive cuts using hyperplanes with fixed
directions. We establish the number of measures that can be split evenly simultaneously by …

Thieves can make sandwiches

PVM Blagojević, P Soberón - Bulletin of the London …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
We prove a common generalization of the Ham Sandwich theorem and Alon's Necklace
Splitting theorem. Our main results show the existence of fair distributions of m measures in …

Bisections of mass assignments using flags of affine spaces

I Axelrod-Freed, P Soberón - Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2022 - Springer
We use recent extensions of the Borsuk–Ulam theorem for Stiefel manifolds to generalize
the ham sandwich theorem to mass assignments. A k-dimensional mass assignment …
