Bodies of Constant Width, 1st ed. 2019 An Introduction to Convex Geometry with Applications
Auteurs : Martini Horst, Montejano Luis, Oliveros Déborah
- Constant width bodies in convexity (sections and projections, complete and reduced sets, mixed volumes, and further partial fields)
- Sets of constant width in non-Euclidean geometries (in real Banach spaces, and in hyperbolic, spherical, and further non-Euclidean spaces)
- The concept of constant width in analysis (using Fourier series, spherical integration, and other related methods)
- Sets of constant width in differential geometry (using systems of lines and discussing notions like curvature, evolutes, etc.)
- Bodies of constant width in topology (hyperspaces, transnormal manifolds, fiber bundles, and related topics)
- The notion of constant width in discrete geometry (referring to geometric inequalities, packings and coverings, etc.)
- Technical applications, such as film projectors, the square-hole drill, and rotary engines
Provides an extensive exploration of constant width bodies
Offers ample exercises that help readers understand specific topics within convex geometry
Gives instructors a wealth of material to use in a convex geometry course
