The authors investigate max min μF(x) F(y)for two standard distance functions F in R2, where μ denotes the area of {xR2; F(x)≤ 1}, the maximum is over all (geometric) lattices Λ in R2 and the minimum is over all positive points x ∈ Λ and y ∈ Λ* (the polar lattice of Λ). An application is given to a problem on fractional parts.
