Shadow systems and volumes of polar convex bodies
We prove that the reciprocal of the volume of the polar bodies, about the Santaló point, of a shadow system of convex bodies Kt, is a convex function of t. Thus extending to the non-symmetric case a result of Campi and Gronchi. The case that the reciprocal of the volume is an affine function of t is also investigated and is characterized under certain conditions. We apply these results to prove...
متن کاملEmbryos whose polar bodies contain isolated reciprocal chromosome aneuploidy are almost always euploid
STUDY QUESTION When a chromosome aneuploidy is detected in the first polar body and a reciprocal loss or gain of the same chromosome is detected in the second polar body, is the resulting embryo usually aneuploid for that chromosome? SUMMARY ANSWER When reciprocal aneuploidy occurs in polar bodies, the resulting embryo is usually normal for that chromosome, indicating that premature separatio...
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...
متن کاملReductibility of Convex Bodies
Introduction Let C be a convex bounded body in the n-dimensional Euclidean space E, and let B be its boundary. We use Busemann's notations: E(a,b) for the segment {(1 — p)a + pb: 0 < p ^ 1} from a to b, and S(z, p) for the sphere {x: \\z — x\\ = p). We now recall the definition of Hammer's associated bodies C(r). Let Cb(r) be the set obtained from C by a similitude transformation with a ratio r...
