Displacement-energy subadditivity for plank coverings
Displacement-energy subadditivity for plank coverings
Let be a finite-dimensional real vector space, let be a convex body, and let be the unit ball of the dual norm. For the canonical symplectic structure on , write for the displacement energy of . If finitely many planks cover and their relative widths have sum , then the displacement-energy conjecture asserts
This conjectural bound would provide a symplectic approach to Bang-type covering problems; the source does not state a resolution.
