摘要: Consider an arrangement of n hyperplanes in \real d . Families convex polytopes whose boundaries are contained the union subject this paper. We aim to bound their maximum combinatorial complexity. Exact asymptotic bounds were known for case where cells arrangement. Situations pairwise openly disjoint have also been considered past. However, no nontrivial was general may overlapping interiors, d>2 analyze families that do not share vertices. In 3 we show O(k 1/3 2 ) on number faces k such polytopes. discuss worst-case lower and higher-dimensional versions problem. Among other results, facets vertex-disjoint is Ω(k 1/2 d/2 which a factor $\sqrt{n}$ away from best upper range d-2 ≤ The 1≤ completely resolved as ?(kn) applies here.
