Hitting sets for sets of VC dimension d
Let $S$ be a collection of sets of binary vectors (in $\{0,1\}^m$) $S_1, S_2, \dotsc, S_t$ (say $t = O(m^d)$) each of VC dimension $d$. What can be said about the size of a hitting set $S_\text{hit}$ ...

$\epsilon$-nets with respect to the cut norm
The cut norm $||A||_C$ of a real matrix $A = (a_{i,j}) \in \mathcal{R}^{n\times n}$ is the maximum over all $I \subseteq [n], J \subseteq [n]$ of the quantity $\left|\sum_{i \in I, j \in J}a_{i,j}\...

Counting Metrics
Say that I have a set of $n$ points $N$, and am interested in metrics $d:N\times N \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ over $N$. Let $M$ denote the set of all metrics over $N$.
Now let me define the distance ...
