Abstract

Let S be a set of points in IRd, each with a weight that is not known precisely, only known to fall within some range. What is the locus of the centroid of S? We prove that this locus is a convex polytope, the projection of a zonotope in IRd+1. We derive complexity bounds and algorithms for the construction of these "centroid polytopes".
