An alternative proof of Petty's theorem on equilateral sets

Tomasz Kobos (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

The main goal of this paper is to provide an alternative proof of the following theorem of Petty: in a normed space of dimension at least three, every 3-element equilateral set can be extended to a 4-element equilateral set. Our approach is based on the result of Kramer and Németh about inscribing a simplex into a convex body. To prove the theorem of Petty, we shall also establish that for any three points in a normed plane, forming an equilateral triangle of side p, there exists a fourth...

Essentially-Euclidean convex bodies

Alexander E. Litvak, Vitali D. Milman, Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

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 proportional-dimensional Euclidean subspaces of any proportion. We consider a space X₁ = (ℝⁿ,||·||₁) with the property that if a space X₂ = (ℝⁿ,||·||₂) is "not too far" from X₁ then there exists a [λn]-dimensional subspace E⊂ ℝⁿ such that E₁ = (E,||·||₁)...

Note on Bessaga-Klee classification

Marek Cúth, Ondřej F. K. Kalenda (2015)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We collect several variants of the proof of the third case of the Bessaga-Klee relative classification of closed convex bodies in topological vector spaces. We were motivated by the fact that we have not found anywhere in the literature a complete correct proof. In particular, we point out an error in the proof given in the book of C. Bessaga and A. Pełczyński (1975). We further provide a simplified version of T. Dobrowolski's proof of the smooth classification of smooth convex bodies...
