Self-dual polytope and self-dual smooth Wulff shape
Abstract
For any Wulff shape , its dual Wulff shape and spherical Wulff shape can be defined naturally. A self-dual Wulff shape is a Wulff shape equaling its dual Wulff shape exactly. In this paper, we show that if a spherical convex polytope is of constant width , then . As an application of this fact, we prove that a polytope Wulff shape is self-dual if and only if its spherical Wulff shape is a spherical convex body of constant width. We also prove that a smooth Wulff shape is self-dual if and only if for any interior point of and for any point of the intersection of the boundary of and the graph of its spherical support function (with respect to ), the image of under the spherical blow-up (with respect to ) is always a boundary point of .
