Title
Upper Bounds on Geometric Permutations for Convex Sets
Abstract
LetA be a family ofn pairwise disjoint compact convex sets inRd. Let <img src="/fulltext-image.asp?format=htmlnonpaginated&src=KR7KH80843513705_html\454_2005_Article_BF02187777_TeX2GIFIE1.gif" border="0" alt=" $$\Phi _d (m) = 2\Sigma _{i = 0}^{d - 1} \left( {_i^{m - 1} } \right)$$ " />. We show that the directed lines inRd, d ≥ 3, can be partitioned into <img src="/fulltext-image.asp?format=htmlnonpaginated&src=KR7KH80843513705_html\454_2005_Article_BF02187777_TeX2GIFIE2.gif" border="0" alt=" $$\Phi _d \left( {\left( {_2^n } \right)} \right)$$ " /> sets such that any two directed lines in the same set which intersect anyA′⊆A generate the same ordering onA′. The directed lines inR2 can be partitioned into 12n such sets. This bounds the number of geometric permutations onA by 1/2φd ford≥3 and by 6n ford=2.
