In the Fall of 2023, the Erdős Center (Budapest) hosted a special semester on ”Discrete Geometry and Convexity”, which brought together some of the strongest experts in the field and many outstanding young researchers. The program featured intensive one-week mini-courses during a Summer School, followed by conferences and workshops presenting cutting-edge research. Part I of the present volume includes the notes of three lecture series on (1) approximation in discrete geometry, (2) random polytopes, and (3) a structure theory for graphs embedded in the plane. Part II starts with a classic: Matoušek’s until now unpublished elegant lecture notes concerning the algorithmic complexity of recognizing intersection graphs of segments and some other geometric objects. It is complemented by the first systematic and comprehensive survey of the corresponding complexity class: the existential theory of reals. This volume will be a valuable resource for graduate students, young researchers, and experts in related fields interested in discrete and computational geometry.
János Pach is a research professor at the Rényi Institute, Budapest. His main fields of interest are discrete and computational geometry, convexity, and combinatorics. He has written more than 350 research papers. His books, "Research Problems in Discrete Geometry'' (with Brass and Moser) and ``Combinatorial Geometry" (with Agarwal) were translated into Japanese, Russian, and Chinese. He is the co-editor-in-chief of Discrete & Computational Geometry. He received the Lester Ford Award from the Mathematical Association of America (1990), the Rényi Prize and the Academy Award from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (1993, 1998), and the Szele Prize from the Bolyai Mathematical Society (2019). He was elected the ACM Fellow (2011), a member of Academia Europaea (2014) and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (2022). He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians (2014) and a plenary speaker at the European Congress of Mathematics (2021).
Géza Tóth is a research professor and the head of the Department of Geometry at the Rényi Institute, Budapest, working on problems in discrete and computational geometry and combinatorics. He received his PhD degree at Courant Institute, New York University in 1997, as a student of János Pach, winning the Best Dissertation Prize in mathematics and the Sokol Award, the highest university-wide prize for fresh PhDs. He wrote more than 100 research articles and he is the co-editor-in-chief of Studia Scientiarum Mathematicarum Hungarica and the editor of Computational Geometry and Acta Mathematica Hungarica. Among other distinctions, he received the Erdős Prize of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 2008 and the Rényi Prize of the Rényi Institute in 2010.

Standard Business Terms and customer information
I. Standard business terms
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions of business apply for all contracts concluded with us as the supplier (preigu GmbH & Co. KG) via the websites AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of your own terms and conditions is explicitly rejected.
(2) A ?consumer' in the sense of the following regulations is every natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwh...

Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
