原文摘要

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, and let $C$ be a compact, convex subset of the plane that contains the origin in its interior. We study the problem of finding two points $p$ and $q$ of $P$ with the property that any homothet of $C$ that contains $p$ and $q$ must contain at least a constant fraction of the points of $P$. We give proofs for several cases. When $C$ is strictly convex we achieve a fraction of $1/5$, and when $C$ is a general convex region we achieve a fraction of $1/6e$. We show how the ideas of this second bound can be used to prove a lower bound for a version of the problem in $\mathbb{R}^d$ when $C$ is a $d$-ball. We also consider a few special cases. When $C$ is a triangle we get a lower bound of $1/12$, and when we allow that triangle to be rotated by $π$ radians in addition to being scaled and translated we get a lower bound of $1/768$. In proving this last result, we improve the state of the art on the version of this problem in three dimensions, where $C$ is a parallelepiped. We also consider the algorithmic aspects of finding such a pair of points.
