For a set $X$ of points $x(1)$, $x(2)$, $\ldots$, $x(n)$ in some real vector space $V$ we denote by $T(X,r)$ the set of points in $X$ that belong to the convex hulls of r pairwise disjoint subsets of $X$. We let $t(X,r)=1+\dim(T(X,r))$. Radon's theorem asserts that If $t(X,1)< |X|$, then $t(X, 2) >0$. The first …
