On a Geometric Generalization of the Upper Bound Theorem
We prove an upper bound, tight up to a factor of 2, for the number of vertices of level at most in an arrangement of n halfspaces in Rd , for arbitrary n and d (in particular, the...

Number of Crossing-Free Geometric Graphs vs. Triangulations
We show that there is a constant > 0 such that, for any set P of n 5 points in general position in the plane, a crossing-free geometric graph on P that is chosen uniformly at...

On the structure and composition of forbidden sequences, with geometric applications
Forbidden substructure theorems have proved to be among of the most versatile tools in bounding the complexity of geometric objects and the running time of geometric algorithms. T...

Bounds on the maximum multiplicity of some common geometric graphs
We obtain new lower and upper bounds for the maximum multiplicity of some weighted and, respectively, non-weighted common geometric graphs drawn on n points in the plane in genera...

A Comparison of Various Methods for Computing Bounds for Positive Roots of Polynomials
Abstract: The recent interest in isolating real roots of polynomials has revived interest in computing sharp upper bounds on the values of the positive roots of polynomials. Until ...
