Abstract

An abstract optimization problem (AOP) is a triple $(H, The algorithm is applied to the problem of finding the distance between two $n$-vertex (or $n$-facet) convex polyhedra in $d$-space, and to the computation of the smallest ball containing $n$ points in $d$-space; for both problems we give the first subexponential bounds in the arithmetic model of computation.
