Extract

All sets considered in this paper will be subsets of n-dimensional Eucidean space En. In this paper, we shall consider the ‘total edge-lengths’ of polytopes which are inscribed in a given sphere and which contain its centre. We first, however, mention some related problems considered by various authors which may be of interest to the reader.
