近似共线性的Sylvester-Gallai型定理

Sylvester-Gallai type theorems for approximate collinearity

Albert Ai, Zeev Dvir, Shubhangi Saraf, Avi Wigderson

摘要:

我们研究的问题,在发病率几何点的精确位置是“模糊”(例如,由于噪音,不准确或错误)。因此,直线被细管代替,更一般的仿射子空间被它们的小邻域代替。我们证明了在d维复空间中的一组点中存在足够多的近似共线三元组意味着这些点接近于一个低维仿射子空间。这可以被看作是Sylvester-Gallai定理及其扩展的稳定变体。建立在最近发现的Sylvester-Gallai型定理和复杂的局部可纠正码(LCC)之间的连接,我们定义了新的概念,稳定的LCC,其中(本地)校正程序也可以处理小扰动的欧几里德度量。我们证明了这种稳定的代码与恒定的查询复杂度是不存在的。在任何此类当地环境中,2次以上查询均未获得已知的不可能结果。

英文摘要:

We study questions in incidence geometry where the precise position of points is `blurry' (e.g. due to noise, inaccuracy or error). Thus lines are replaced by narrow tubes, and more generally affine subspaces are replaced by their small neighborhood. We show that the presence of a sufficiently large number of approximately collinear triples in a set of points in d dimensional complex space implies that the points are close to a low dimensional affine subspace. This can be viewed as a stable variant of the Sylvester-Gallai theorem and its extensions. Building on the recently found connection between Sylvester-Gallai type theorems and complex Locally Correctable Codes (LCCs), we define the new notion of stable LCCs, in which the (local) correction procedure can also handle small perturbations in the euclidean metric. We prove that such stable codes with constant query complexity do not exist. No impossibility results were known in any such local setting for more than 2 queries.
