Floating and Illumination Bodies for Polytopes: Duality Results

Metric Geometry 2019-06-19 v3 Functional Analysis

Abstract

We consider the question how well a floating body can be approximated by the polar of the illumination body of the polar. We establish precise convergence results in the case of centrally symmetric polytopes. This leads to a new affine invariant which is related to the cone measure of the polytope.
