This result is the basis of a time-optimal incremental algorithm that constructs a hyperplane arrangement and has a host of other algorithmic and combinatorial applications. Unfortunately, the original proof of the zone theorem, for d ge 3, turned out to contain a serious and irreparable error. This paper presents a new proof of the theorem. Our proof is based on an inductive argument, which also applies in the case of pseudo-hyperplane arrangements. We also briefly discuss the fallacies of the old proof along with some ways of partially saving that approach.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_status":"published","quality_controlled":"1","title":"On the zone theorem for hyperplane arrangements","alternative_title":["LNCS"],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/BFb0038185"}],"_id":"4054","author":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-9823-6833","first_name":"Herbert","full_name":"Edelsbrunner, Herbert","id":"3FB178DA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Edelsbrunner"},{"first_name":"Raimund","full_name":"Seidel, Raimund","last_name":"Seidel"},{"last_name":"Sharir","full_name":"Sharir, Micha","first_name":"Micha"}],"conference":{"name":"New Results and New Trends in Computer Science "},"doi":"10.1007/BFb0038185","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"intvolume":"       555","extern":"1","type":"conference","publist_id":"2068","date_updated":"2022-02-28T15:13:37Z","volume":555}
