Peabodies of constant width

چکیده

We describe a new family of 3-dimensional bodies constant width that we have called peabodies, obtained from the Reuleaux tetrahedron by replacing small neighborhood all six edges with sections an envelope spheres. This contains, in particular, two Meissner solids and body tetrahedral symmetry Robert’s body. Behind construction this lies classical notion confocal quadrics discussed, for example, Hilbert Cohn-Vossen their famous book. will study prove distances alternating sequence four points always satisfies simple equation use to our width.

Convex sets of constant width

A bounded convex set has constant width d iff any two parallel (and nonidentical) tangent planes to it have identical distance d from each other. Clearly balls have this property, but there are also other sets of constant width. This lecture was originally designed for a general audience as part of a series of lectures during the German “Year of Mathematics” 2008. It starts by presenting eviden...

Nakajima’s Problem: Convex Bodies of Constant Width and Constant Brightness

For a convex body K ⊂ Rn, the kth projection function of K assigns to any k-dimensional linear subspace of Rn the k-volume of the orthogonal projection of K to that subspace. Let K and K0 be convex bodies in Rn, and let K0 be centrally symmetric and satisfy a weak regularity and curvature condition (which includes all K0 with ∂K0 of class C2 with positive radii of curvature). Assume that K and ...

Convex Bodies of Constant Width and Constant Brightness

Under the extra assumption that the boundary is of class C this was proven by S. Nakajima (= A. Matsumura) in 1926 Theorem 1 solves this problem. For convex bodies with C boundaries and positive curvature Nakajima’s result was generalized by Chakerian [?] in 1967 to “relative geometry” where the width and brightness are measured with with respect to some convex body K0 symmetric about the origi...

Figures of Constant Width on a Chessboard

Every row and column of the board has only two occupied squares. But if we also consider the diagonals with slope +1 or −1, we see that each of them contains either zero or two squares of the figure. We say that Figure 1 has constant width three by rows and columns, and that Figure 2 has constant width two by rows, columns, and diagonals. The first figure is easy to generalize in the sense that...

Bodies of constant width in arbitrary dimension

We give a number of characterizations of bodies of constant width in arbitrary dimension. As an application, we describe a way to construct a body of constant width in dimension n, one of its (n − 1)dimensional projection being given. We give a number of examples, like a four-dimensional body of constant width whose 3D-projection is the classical Meissner’s body.
