Abstract
We investigate the intersections of balls of radius , called -ball bodies, in Euclidean -space. An -lense (resp., -spindle) is the intersection of two balls of radius (resp., balls of radius containing a given pair of points). We prove that among -ball bodies of given volume, the -lense (resp., -spindle) has the smallest inradius (resp., largest circumradius). In general, we upper (resp., lower) bound the intrinsic volumes of -ball bodies of given inradius (resp., circumradius). This complements and extends some earlier results on volumetric estimates for -ball bodies.
