About an Erdős-Grünbaum conjecture concerning piercing of non bounded convex sets

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we study the number of compact sets needed in an infinite family of convex sets with a local intersection structure to imply a bound on its piercing number, answering a conjecture of Erdős and Grünbaum. Namely, if in an infinite family of convex sets in Rd\mathbb{R}^d we know that out of every pp there are qq which are intersecting, we determine if having some compact sets implies a bound on the number of points needed to intersect the whole family. We also study variations of this problem.
