Applications of incidence bounds in point covering problems

Abstract: In the Line Cover problem a set of n points is given and the task is to cover the points using either the minimum number of lines or at most k lines. In Curve Cover, a generalization of Line Cover, the task is to cover the points using curves with d degrees of freedom. Another generalization is the Hyperplane Cover problem where points in d-dimensional space are to be covered by hyperplanes. All these problems have kernels of polynomial size, where the parameter is the minimum number of lines, curves, or hyper… Show more

“…Under this more general framework, we extend Apfelbaum-Sharir's method in [7] to some other families of surfaces in R 3 and use that to prove a new upper bound for incidences with nondegenerate spheres in four dimensions. 1 What they actually proved is that the maximum number of β-nondegenerate, k-rich (i.e. containing at…”

“…Point covering problem is a famous problem in computation geometry which asks for efficient ways to cover n points in space using lines, curves or hyperplanes, hypersurfaces. In [1], the authors use the point-hyperplane bound in theorem 1.10 to derive a good hyperplane covering algorithm. However, it only works in R 3 because of the strong result when d = 3.…”
