چکیده
In this note, we prove the following inequality for norm N(K) of a convex body K in $$\mathbb {R}^n$$ , $$n\ge 2$$ : $$\begin{aligned} \le \frac{\pi ^{\frac{n-1}{2}}}{2 \Gamma \left( \frac{n+1}{2}\right) }\cdot {{\,\mathrm{length}\,}}(\gamma ) + ^{\frac{n}{2}-1}}{\Gamma \frac{n}{2}\right) } \cdot {{\,\mathrm{diam}\,}}(K), \end{aligned}$$ where $${{\,\mathrm{diam}\,}}(K)$$ is diameter K, $$\gamma $$ any curve whose hull covers and $$\Gamma gamma function. If addition has constant width $$\Theta then get \ge \frac{2(\pi -1)\Gamma }{\sqrt{\pi }\,\Gamma \Theta 2(\pi -1) \sqrt{\frac{n-1}{2\pi }}\cdot . addition, pose several unsolved problems.

Convex Hull of Grid Points below a Line or a Convex Curve
Consider a nite non-vertical, and non-degenerate straight-line segment s = s0; s1] in the Euclidian plane E 2. We give a method for constructing the boundary of the upper convex hull of all the points with integral coordinates below (or on) s, with abscissa in x(s0); x(s1)]. The algorithm takes O(log n) time, if n is the length of the segment. We next show how to perform a similar construction ...
متن کاملOn the convex hull of a space curve
The boundary of the convex hull of a compact algebraic curve in real 3-space defines a real algebraic surface. For general curves, that boundary surface is reducible, consisting of tritangent planes and a scroll of stationary bisecants. We express the degree of this surface in terms of the degree, genus and singularities of the curve. We present algorithms for computing their defining polynomia...
متن کاملConvex Hull Properties of Harmonic Maps
In 1975, Yau [Y] proved, by way of a gradient estimate, that a complete manifold M with non-negative Ricci curvature must satisfy the strong Liouville property for harmonic functions. The strong Liouville property (Liouville property) asserts that any positive (bounded) harmonic function defined on M must be identically constant. In 1980, Cheng [C] generalized the gradient estimate to harmonic ...
متن کاملMinimizing within Convex Bodies Using a Convex Hull Method
We present numerical methods to solve optimization problems on the space of convex functions or among convex bodies. Hence convexity is a constraint on the admissible objects, whereas the functionals are not required to be convex. To deal with, our method mix geometrical and numerical algorithms. We give several applications arising from classical problems in geometry and analysis: Alexandrov’s...
