We show that, for every set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional unit cube, there is an empty axis-parallel box of volume at least $Omega(d/n)$ as $ntoinfty$ and $d$ is fixed. In the opposite direction, we give a construction without an empty axis-parallel box of volume $O(d^2log d/n)$. These improve on the previous best bounds of $Omega(log d/n)$ and $O(2^{7d}/n)$ respectively.
We prove the following generalised empty pentagon theorem: for every integer $ell geq 2$, every sufficiently large set of points in the plane contains $ell$ collinear points or an empty pentagon. As an application, we settle the next open case of the
For a positive integer $d$, the $d$-dimensional Chebyshev-Frolov lattice is the $mathbb{Z}$-lattice in $mathbb{R}^d$ generated by the Vandermonde matrix associated to the roots of the $d$-dimensional Chebyshev polynomial. It is important to enumerate
An empty simplex is a lattice simplex with only its vertices as lattice points. Their classification in dimension three was completed by White in 1964. In dimension four, the same task was started in 1988 by Mori, Morrison, and Morrison, with their m
A lattice $d$-simplex is the convex hull of $d+1$ affinely independent integer points in ${mathbb R}^d$. It is called empty if it contains no lattice point apart of its $d+1$ vertices. The classification of empty $3$-simplices is known since 1964 (Wh
We construct a family of 17 disjoint axis-parallel line segments in the plane that do not admit a circumscribing polygon.
