Affine Diameters of Convex Bodies
We prove sharp inequalities for the average number of affine diameters through the points of a convex body K in Rn. These inequalities hold if K is a polytope or of dimension two. An example shows that the proof given in the latter case does not extend to higher dimensions. The example also demonstrates that for n ≥ 3 there exist norms and convex bodies K ⊂ Rn such that the metric projection on...
متن کاملCircles holding typical convex bodies
We prove here that, for most convex bodies, the space of all holding circles has infinitely many components.
متن کاملCurvatures of typical convex bodies—the complete picture
It is known that a typical n-dimensional convex body, in the Baire category sense, has the property that its set of umbilics of zero curvature has full measure in the boundary of the body. We show that a typical convex body has in addition the following properties. The spherical image of the set of umbilics of zero curvature has measure zero. The set of umbilics of infinite curvature is dense i...
متن کاملShadows of Convex Bodies
It is proved that if C is a convex body in R" then C has an affine image C (of nonzero volume) so that if P is any 1-codimensional orthogonal projection, \PC\>\C\{tt~l)/n. It is also shown that there is a pathological body, K , all of whose orthogonal projections have volume about \fh~ times as large as |Ä"| . 0. Introduction The problems discussed in this paper concern the areas of shadows (or...
متن کاملEssentially-Euclidean convex bodies
In this note we introduce a notion of essentially-Euclidean normed spaces (and convex bodies). Roughly speaking, an n-dimensional space is λ-essentially-Euclidean (with 0 < λ < 1) if it has a [λn]dimensional subspace which has further proportionally dimensional Euclidean subspaces of any proportion. We consider a space X1 = (Rn, ‖ · ‖1) with the property that if a space X2 = (Rn, ‖ · ‖2) is “no...
