text: "We prove that the medial axis of closed sets is Hausdorff stable in the following
sense: Let \U0001D4AE ⊆ ℝ^d be a fixed closed set that contains a bounding sphere.
That is, the bounding sphere is part of the set \U0001D4AE. Consider the space
of C^{1,1} diffeomorphisms of ℝ^d to itself, which keep the bounding sphere invariant.
The map from this space of diffeomorphisms (endowed with a Banach norm) to the
space of closed subsets of ℝ^d (endowed with the Hausdorff distance), mapping
a diffeomorphism F to the closure of the medial axis of F(\U0001D4AE), is Lipschitz.
This extends a previous stability result of Chazal and Soufflet on the stability
of the medial axis of C² manifolds under C² ambient diffeomorphisms."

text: Grid peeling is the process of repeatedly removing the convex hull vertices
of the grid points that lie inside a given convex curve. It has been conjectured
that, for a more and more refined grid, grid peeling converges to a continuous
process, the affine curve-shortening flow, which deforms the curve based on the
curvature. We prove this conjecture for one class of curves, parabolas with a
vertical axis, and we determine the value of the constant factor in the formula
that relates the two processes.

text: "In this article we extend and strengthen the seminal work by Niyogi, Smale,
and Weinberger on the learning of the homotopy type from a sample of an underlying
space. In their work, Niyogi, Smale, and Weinberger studied samples of C² manifolds
with positive reach embedded in ℝ^d. We extend their results in the following
ways: - As the ambient space we consider both ℝ^d and Riemannian manifolds with
lower bounded sectional curvature. - In both types of ambient spaces, we study
sets of positive reach - a significantly more general setting than C² manifolds
- as well as general manifolds of positive reach. - The sample P of a set (or
a manifold) \U0001D4AE of positive reach may be noisy. We work with two one-sided
Hausdorff distances - ε and δ - between P and \U0001D4AE. We provide tight bounds
in terms of ε and δ, that guarantee that there exists a parameter r such that
the union of balls of radius r centred at the sample P deformation-retracts to
\U0001D4AE. We exhibit their tightness by an explicit construction. We carefully
distinguish the roles of δ and ε. This is not only essential to achieve tight
bounds, but also sensible in practical situations, since it allows one to adapt
the bound according to sample density and the amount of noise present in the sample
separately."

text: "In our companion paper \"Tight bounds for the learning of homotopy à la Niyogi,
Smale, and Weinberger for subsets of Euclidean spaces and of Riemannian manifolds\"
we gave optimal bounds (in terms of the two one-sided Hausdorff distances) on
a sample P of an input shape \U0001D4AE (either manifold or general set with positive
reach) such that one can infer the homotopy of \U0001D4AE from the union of balls
with some radius centred at P, both in Euclidean space and in a Riemannian manifold
of bounded curvature. The construction showing the optimality of the bounds is
not straightforward. The purpose of this video is to visualize and thus elucidate
said construction in the Euclidean setting."

text: "An eight-partition of a finite set of points (respectively, of a continuous
mass distribution) in ℝ³ consists of three planes that divide the space into 8
octants, such that each open octant contains at most 1/8 of the points (respectively,
of the mass). In 1966, Hadwiger showed that any mass distribution in ℝ³ admits
an eight-partition; moreover, one can prescribe the normal direction of one of
the three planes. The analogous result for finite point sets follows by a standard
limit argument.\r\nWe prove the following variant of this result: Any mass distribution
(or point set) in ℝ³ admits an eight-partition for which the intersection of two
of the planes is a line with a prescribed direction.\r\nMoreover, we present an
efficient algorithm for calculating an eight-partition of a set of n points in
ℝ³ (with prescribed normal direction of one of the planes) in time O^*(n^{5/2})."

text: The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the p-th Betti number
of the Čech complex of any set of N points in ℝ^d and any radius satisfies β_p
= O(N^m), with m = min{p+1, ⌈d/2⌉}. We construct sets in even and odd dimensions,
which prove that this upper bound is asymptotically tight. For example, we describe
a set of N = 2(n+1) points in ℝ³ and two radii such that the first Betti number
of the Čech complex at one radius is (n+1)² - 1, and the second Betti number of
the Čech complex at the other radius is n². In particular, there is an arrangement
of n contruent balls in ℝ³ that enclose a quadratic number of voids, which answers
a long-standing open question in computational geometry.
