We say that a subset of Rn\mathbb{R}^{n} is kk-almost contained by a hyperplane if there are less than kk points in that set which do not belong to the hyperplane. We call a finite set of points kk-generic if there is no hyperplane that kk-almost contains the set. For each pair of positive integers kk and nn, find the minimal number d(k,n)d(k, n) such that every finite kk-generic set in Rn\mathbb{R}^{n} contains a kk-generic subset with at most d(k,n)d(k, n) elements.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
We say that a subset of R^(n) is k-almost contained by a hyperplane if there are less than k points in that set which do not belong to the hyperplane. We call a finite set of points k-generic if there is no hyperplane that k-almost contains the set. For each pair of positive integers k and n, find the minimal number d(k,n) such that every finite k-generic set in R^(n) contains a k-generic subset with at most d(k,n) elements.
Original LaTeX notation
We say that a subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ is $k$-almost contained by a hyperplane if there are less than $k$ points in that set which do not belong to the hyperplane. We call a finite set of points $k$-generic if there is no hyperplane that $k$-almost contains the set. For each pair of positive integers $k$ and $n$, find the minimal number $d(k, n)$ such that every finite $k$-generic set in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ contains a $k$-generic subset with at most $d(k, n)$ elements.
