Lattice Delone simplices with super-exponential volume

Combinatorics 2007-05-23 v2 Metric Geometry

Abstract

In this short note we give a construction of an infinite series of Delone simplices whose relative volume grows super-exponentially with their dimension. This dramatically improves the previous best lower bound, which was linear.
