When can a point be reconstructed from relative angle measurements?
Given a set of points $p_1,\dots,p_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a target point $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$, I measure all the angles between all pairs of points and the target point. In other words, I have the ...

Maximum average Euclidean distance between $n$ points in $[-1,1]^n$
For my research I have designed a metric that is based on the average Euclidean distance between $n$ points in the $n$-dimensional hypercube $[-1,1]^n$. However, I have a hard time finding the maximal ...

Find a line such that sum of perpendicular distances of points to the line is minimized
Given a set of points (column vectors) $S = \{p_1, p_2, \cdots, p_n\} \subset \Re^d$, let $A \in \Re^{n \times d}$ be a matrix of which each row is just $p_i^T$. It is easy to find a unit vector $s_1$ ...
