Regular truncated-octahedron conjecture for unit-volume parallelohedra
Regular truncated-octahedron conjecture for unit-volume parallelohedra
Let be a three-dimensional parallelohedron of unit volume, and let denote its surface area. Regular truncated-octahedron conjecture. Among three-dimensional, unit-volume parallelohedra , is minimal if and only if is a regular truncated octahedron. This is a parallelohedral version of the equal-volume, minimum-surface-area problem for space mosaics; the source notes that no subfamily of mosaics solving Kelvin's problem was known there.
