A peak is typically located by the coordinates of the
highest spot. If it's a smooth peak, the sensitivity of
that high spot is large to the movement of relatively
small amounts of material. So, small motions are easy.
Travel cost is large, though, I'd hire a local agency to

Does that mean, given a standard basis e_1, e_2, ..., e_n,

I assume that v = -e_i is also allowed as otherwise no vector of the

Just consider the scalar product of v_1+v_2+v_3 and e_1 + ... + e_n.
