Abstract

The k-core of the set S ⊂ℝn is the intersection of the convex hull of all sets A ⊆ S with |S{set minus}A|<-k. The Caratheodory number of the k-core is the smallest integer f (d,k) with the property that x ∈ corekS, S ⊂ℝn implies the existence of a subset T ⊆ S such that x ∈ corekT and |T|≤f (d, k). In this paper various properties of f(d, k) are established.
