Geodesic diameter of bodies of constant width

V. A. Zalgaller

Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, Weizmann Institute of Science

Abstract: The geodesic diameter $G$ of the surface of a three-dimensional body $\Phi$ of constant width $B$ is estimated via $B$ from above and from below. It is proved that $G\le\frac\pi2B$, where an equality occurs if and only if $\Phi$ is a body of revolution. Bibl. – 3 titles.
