This result is the basis of a time-optimal incremental algorithm that constructs a hyperplane arrangement and has a host of other algorithmic and combinatorial applications. Unfortunately, the original proof of the zone theorem, for d ge 3, turned out to contain a serious and irreparable error. This paper presents a new proof of the theorem. Our proof is based on an inductive argument, which also applies in the case of pseudo-hyperplane arrangements. We also briefly discuss the fallacies of the old proof along with some ways of partially saving that approach."}],"month":"11","date_updated":"2022-02-28T15:13:37Z","page":"108 - 123","volume":555,"alternative_title":["LNCS"],"date_created":"2018-12-11T12:06:40Z","_id":"4054","quality_controlled":"1","title":"On the zone theorem for hyperplane arrangements","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/BFb0038185"}],"author":[{"full_name":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert","last_name":"Edelsbrunner","first_name":"Herbert","id":"3FB178DA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-9823-6833"},{"first_name":"Raimund","full_name":"Seidel, Raimund","last_name":"Seidel"},{"first_name":"Micha","last_name":"Sharir","full_name":"Sharir, Micha"}],"date_published":"1991-11-13T00:00:00Z","day":"13","year":"1991","type":"conference","status":"public"}
