Approximation of Spherical Bodies of Constant Width and Reduced Bodies

Metric Geometry 2021-06-17 v2

Abstract

We present a spherical version of the theorem of Blaschke that every body of constant width w<π2w < \frac{\pi}{2} can be approximated as well as we wish in the sense of the Hausdorff distance by a body of constant width ww whose boundary consists only of pieces of circles of radius ww. This is a special case of our theorem about approximation of spherical reduced bodies.
