Abstract

It is proved that the simultaneous lattice packing and lattice covering constant of every three-dimensional centrally symmetric convex body is less than or equal to 7/4. Consequently, for any three-dimensional convex body K there is a corresponding lattice packing in which no extra translate of K can be added.
