Convex Sets of Constant Width and -diameter
PETER HÄSTÖ, ZAIR IBRAGIMOV AND DAVID MINDA ABSTRACT. In this article we study -diameter of planar sets of constant width. We obtain analogues of the isodiametric inequality and the Blaschke-Lebesgue Theorem for -diameter of constant width sets. Namely, we prove that among all the sets of given constant width, disks have the smallest -diameter and Reuleaux triangles have the largest -diameter. ...
متن کاملDistances Realized by Sets Covering the Plane
A proof is given of the (known) result that, if real n-dimensional Euclidean space R” is covered by any n + 1 sets, then at least one of these sets is such that each distance d (0 < d < a)) is realized as the distance between two points of the set. In particular, this result holds if the plane is covered by three sets; but it does not necessarily hold if the plane is covered by six sets. I f ea...
متن کاملMaximal perimeter, diameter and area of equilateral unit-width convex polygons
The paper answers the three distinct questions of maximizing the perimeter, diameter and area of equilateral unit-width convex polygons. The solution to each of these problems is trivially unbounded when the number of sides is even. We show that when this number is odd, the optimal solution to these three problems is identical, and arbitrarily close to a trapezoid. The paper also considers the ...
متن کاملTotal Diameter and Area of Closed Submanifolds
The total diameter of a closed planar curve C ⊂ R is the integral of its antipodal chord lengths. We show that this quantity is bounded below by twice the area of C. Furthermore, when C is convex or centrally symmetric, the lower bound is twice as large. Both inequalities are sharp and the equality holds in the convex case only when C is a circle. We also generalize these results to m dimension...
متن کاملMaximal Area Sets and Harmony
A musical scale can be viewed as a subset of notes or pitches taken from a chromatic universe. For the purposes of this paper we consider a chromatic universe of twelve equally spaced pitches. Given integers (N,K) with N > K we use particular integer partitions of N into K parts to construct distinguished sets, or scales. We show that a natural geometric realization of these sets have maximal a...
