2D closed convex shape which minimizes average distance between points

For a 2D closed convex shape, with metric $d$ and fixed area $A$, we can calculate the average distance between random (interior) points. For different shapes, we will get different values for this av …

Metric for measuring linearity of finite set of points in $R^2$

Suppose one has $n > 2$ points in $R^2$, and one wants to measure "how linear" they are. I want a metric such that (a) if all the points are in fact on the same line, the metric gives 1, (b) if all th …
