On maximal simplices inscribed in a central convex set
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2010
Extract
Blaschke [1] introduced the notion of maximal tetrahedra inscribed in two and three dimensional convex sets (maximal in the sense of volume). From this notion, he derived an inequality relating the volume of such maximal tetrahedra and the volume of the convex set, and used the inequality to characterize an ellipsoid and to obtain some results concerning isoperimetric inequalities.
