Polytopal approximation of elongated convex bodies

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

This paper presents bounds for the best approximation, with respect to the Hausdorff metric, of a convex body KK by a circumscribed polytope PP with a given number of facets. These bounds are of particular interest if KK is elongated. To measure the elongation of the convex set, its isoperimetric ratio Vj(K)1/jVi(K)−1/i V_j(K)^{1/j} V_i(K)^{-1/i} is used.
