On affine diameters of a convex body

Abstract: It is proved that any convex body in $\mathbb R^n$ has $n$ mutually orthogonal affine diameters $d_1,\dots,d_n$ such that it is possible to shift each of them through a linear combination of direction vectors of the diameters with smaller numbers so that their translates will intersect at their common middle point.

Key words and phrases: convex body, affine diameter, flag, vector bundle.
