Sierksma's conjecture on the minimum number of Tverberg partitions
Let denote the minimum number of unordered Tverberg partitions of a set of points in , where a Tverberg partition of order is a partition into sets whose convex hulls have a common point. Sierksma's conjecture. The minimum number is
This is a long-standing conjecture concerning the extremal number of Tverberg partitions.
