Note on illuminating constant width bodies

Metric Geometry 2023-05-09 v1

Abstract

Recently, Arman, Bondarenko, and Prymak constructed a constant width body in Rn\mathbb{R}^n whose illumination number is exponential in nn. In this note, we improve their bound by generalizing the construction. In particular, we construct a constant width body in Rn\mathbb{R}^n whose illumination number is at least (τ+o(1))n(\tau+o(1))^n, where τ1.047\tau\approx 1.047.
