Tverberg’s theorem, a new proof

  • Imre Bárány

摘要

We give a new proof of Tverberg’s famous theorem: For every set X ⊂ ℝd with ∣X∣ = (r−1)(d+1) + 1, there is a partition of X into r sets X1,…, Xr such that \(\bigcap\nolimits_{p=1}^r \text{conv}X_{p}\ne\emptyset\) p = 1 r conv X p . The new proof uses linear algebra, specially structured matrices, the theory of linear equations, and Tverberg’s original “moving the points” method.
