The duality conjecture for covering numbers
The duality conjecture for covering numbers
Let and be symmetric convex bodies in , and let be the covering number: the least number of translates of needed to cover . For a symmetric convex body , write for its polar body.
Covering-number duality conjecture. There are universal constants such that, for every dimension and every pair of symmetric convex bodies ,
This is presented as an open problem in geometric analysis. It proposes a dimension-free comparison between a covering number and the covering number of the corresponding polar bodies.
