The three-dimensional flatness conjecture for hollow convex bodies

From papers

Let a hollow convex 33-body be a convex body in

whoseinteriorcontainsnolatticepoints,andletwhose interior contains no lattice points, and let

denote the flatness constant in dimension 33, namely the supremum of the lattice widths of hollow convex 33-bodies. Let

be the hollow $3$-simplex described above, of width $2+$. **Three-dimensional flatness conjecture.** No hollow convex $3$-body has width larger than

. That is,

Flt(3)=2+2.\operatorname{Flt}(3)=2+\sqrt{2}.

This conjecture asserts that the displayed hollow simplex is extremal for lattice width among hollow convex bodies in dimension 33. The supplied text does not indicate whether the claim has been proved or disproved.
