Lower edge-density conjecture for normal convex mosaics in three-dimensional space
Lower edge-density conjecture for normal convex mosaics in three-dimensional space
Let be a normal, convex mosaic in whose cells have unit volume, and let denote its lower edge density. Lower edge-density conjecture. One has
Equality is attained, for example, when the cells of are the regular triangle-based right prisms described in the cited decomposition theorem. This conjecture gives the proposed lower bound for edge density among all normal, convex three-dimensional mosaics; the stated prism examples show that the bound is sharp.
