摘要: Abstract Let C be a planar region. Choose n points p 1 ,⋯,p I.I.D. from the uniform distribution over . M number of these that are maximal. If is convex it known either E( )= Θ (√ )> or )=O( log ). In this paper we will show that, for general , there very little can said, a-priori, about More specifically if g member large class functions then always region such ( )). This contains, example, all monotically increasing form α ln β where 0 and ⩾0. also contains nondecreasing like g(n)=ln ∗ The results in remain valid higher dimensions.
