Longest k-monotone chains

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We study higher order convexity properties of random point sets in the unit square. Given n uniform i.i.d random points, we derive asymptotic estimates for the maximal number of them which are in k-monotone position, subject to mild boundary conditions. Besides determining the order of magnitude of the expectation, we also prove strong concentration estimates. We provide a general framework that includes the previously studied cases of k=1 (longest increasing sequences) and k=2 (longest convex chains).
