The Poncelet inellipse concentricity conjecture for Simson-line envelopes
The Poncelet inellipse concentricity conjecture for Simson-line envelopes
Let a Poncelet triangle family be inscribed in a circle with inconic or caustic, and let vary over the circumcircle. For each , let be the envelope point of the corresponding Simson lines. Inellipse concentricity conjecture. Over all , the locus of is an ellipse concentric with the inconic or caustic. The surrounding discussion reports this as a further geometric pattern for circle-inscribed Poncelet families; its general validity remains open.
