Nonagon conjecture for the Cheeger constant at fixed diameter and circumradius
Let denote the class of planar convex sets, and let , , and denote respectively the Cheeger constant, diameter, and circumradius. For a constant-width set , let and be its concentric circumcircle and incircle, with
Construct the associated nonagon of constant width by inscribing an equilateral triangle in , taking the circular arcs of radius centered at its vertices and tangent to at the opposite points, and adding the three circles of radius whose chords are the sides of the triangle and whose centers lie inside it. Nonagon conjecture. For ,
where is a nonagon of constant width satisfying and . This conjectured extremal property is attributed in the source to the described nonagon construction; the source gives no resolution.
