Asymptotic approximation of smooth convex bodies by general polytopes
For the optimal approximation of convex bodies by inscribed or circumscribed polytopes there are precise asymptotic results with respect to different notions of distance. In this paper we want to derive some results on optimal approximation without restricting the polytopes to be inscribed or circumscribed. Let Pn and P(n) denote the set of polytopes with at most n vertices and n facets, respec...
متن کاملApproximation of Smooth Convex Bodies by Random Circumscribed Polytopes
Choose n independent random points on the boundary of a convex body K ⊂Rd . The intersection of the supporting halfspaces at these random points is a random convex polyhedron. The expectations of its volume, its surface area and its mean width are investigated. In the case that the boundary of K is sufficiently smooth, asymptotic expansions as n→∞ are derived even in the case when the curvature...
متن کاملFine Approximation of Convex Bodies by Polytopes
We prove that for every convex body K with the center of mass at the origin and every ε ∈ ( 0, 12 ) , there exists a convex polytope P with at most eO(d)ε− d−1 2 vertices such that (1− ε)K ⊂ P ⊂ K.
متن کاملRandom Polytopes, Convex Bodies, and Approximation
Assume K ⊂ R is a convex body and Xn ⊂ K is a random sample of n uniform, independent points from K. The convex hull of Xn is a convex polytope Kn called random polytope inscribed in K. We are going to investigate various properties of this polytope: for instance how well it approximates K, or how many vertices and facets it has. It turns out that Kn is very close to the so called floating body...
متن کاملRandom Polytopes in Smooth Convex Bodies
Let K<= R be a convex body and choose points xl,x2 xn randomly, independently, and uniformly from K. Then Kn = conv {x, , . . . , *„} is a random polytope that approximates K (as n -») with high probability. Answering a question of Rolf Schneider we determine, up to first order precision, the expectation of vol K -vol Kn when K is a smooth convex body. Moreover, this result is extended to qu...
