Concurrent normals conjecture for convex bodies
Concurrent normals conjecture for convex bodies
Let be a convex body in with smooth boundary. An inward normal to is a line segment or ray normal to the boundary and directed inward. The concurrent normals conjecture. There exists a point such that lies on at least inward normals to . The conjecture is known in dimensions two, three, and four, for centrally symmetric convex bodies, and remains open in general dimensions.
