Counterexamples to the Colorful Tverberg Conjecture for Hyperplanes

Abstract

In 2008 Karasev conjectured that for every set of r blue lines, r green lines, and r red lines in the plane, there exists a partition of them into r colorful triples whose induced triangles intersect. We disprove this conjecture for every r and extend the counterexamples to higher dimensions.
