Abstract
We prove a Tverberg type theorem: Given a set A ⊂ R d in general position with |A| = (r − 1)(d + 1) + 1 and k ∈ {0, 1, . . . , r − 1}, there is a partition of A into r sets A1, . . . , Ar (where |Aj | ≤ d + 1 for each j) with the following property. There is a unique z ∈ Tr j=1 aff Aj and it can be written as an affine combination of the element in Aj : z = P x∈Aj α(x)x for every j and exactly k of the coefficients α(x) are negative. The case k = 0 is Tverberg’s classical theorem.
