Gergely Ambrus is a researcher at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics, working in discrete, convex and stochastic geometry and discrete analysis. He has organized several conferences in the field.
Imre Bárány is a research professor at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics in Budapest and the Astor Professor of Mathematics at University College London. His main field of interest is discrete and convex geometry, and random points and lattice points in convex bodies, with applications in computer science, operations research, and elsewhere. He was an invited speaker at ICM 2002, Beijing. He has organized several conferences in discrete and convex geometry including three in Oberwolfach on Discrete Geometry.
Károly J. Böröczky is a research professor at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics and also a professor at the Central European University and the Loránd Eötvös University. He has organized numerous conferences on discrete and combinatorial geometry including one at AIM, and is the author of the monograph Finite Packing and Covering, published in 2004.
Gábor Fejes Tóth is a research professor emeritus at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics. His area of research is discrete geometry and convexity. Before his retirement he headed the Department of Geometry of the Rényi Institute. He has organized several conferences in discrete and convex geometry including one in Oberwolfach on Discrete Geometry.
János Pach is a research professor at the Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics and also a professor at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland. His main fields of interest are combinatorics, discrete and computational geometry. He was invited speaker at ICM 2014, Seoul. He is coauthor of the monographs Combinatorial Geometry (1995) and Research Problems in Discrete Geometry (2005).

System requirements
File format: PDF
Copy protection: Watermark-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
System requirements:
- Computer (Windows; MacOS X; Linux): Use the free software Adobe Reader, Adobe Digital Editions, or any other PDF viewer of your choice (see eBook Help).
- Tablet/Smartphone (Android; iOS): Install the free app Adobe Digital Editions or another reading app for eBooks, e.g., PocketBook (see eBook Help).
- E-reader: Bookeen, Kobo, Pocketbook, Sony, Tolino and many more (only limited: Kindle).
The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
