The centroid Banach-Mazur distance between the parallelogram and the triangle

Metric Geometry 2022-10-31 v1

Abstract

Let CC and DD be convex bodies in the Euclidean space EdE^d. We define the centroid Banach-Mazur distance δBMcen(C,D)\delta_{BM}^{\rm cen} (C, D) similarly to the classic Banach-Mazur distance δBM(C,D)\delta_{BM} (C, D), but with the extra requirement that the centroids of CC and an affine image of DD coincide. We prove that for the parallelogram PP and the triangle TT in E2E^2 we have δBMcen(P,T)=52\delta_{BM}^{\rm cen} (P, T) = \frac{5}{2}.
