The book is centered around two major conjectures of discrete geometry: the Hadwiger-Levi conjecture (1955) and the Kneser-Poulsen conjecture (1955). Although both conjectures have been solved only in
?Optimization has long been a source of both inspiration and applications for geometers, and conversely, discrete and convex geometry have provided the foundations for many optimization techniques, le
