Positive-fraction intersection results and variations of weak epsilon-nets

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Given a finite set XX of points in RnR^n and a family FF of sets generated by the pairs of points of XX, we determine volumetric and structural conditions for the sets that allow us to guarantee the existence of a positive-fraction subfamily F′F' of FF for which the sets have non-empty intersection. This allows us to show the existence of weak epsilon-nets for these families. We also prove a topological variation of the existence of weak epsilon-nets for convex sets.
