Density bounds for outer parallel domains of unit ball packings

Metric Geometry 2015-11-24 v2

Abstract

We give upper bounds for the density of unit ball packings relative to their outer parallel domains and discuss their connection to contact numbers. Also, packings of soft balls are introduced and upper bounds are given for the fraction of space covered by them.
