Characterization of ellipsoids and polarity in convex sets
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2010
Abstract
By introducing the concept of polarity in convex sets, it is possible, in a natural way, to generalize several classic characterizations of ellipsoids, showing that all of them depend upon and are related to the concept of projective centre of symmetry. Using these ideas, it is also possible to develop new characterizations of ellipsoids and to propose new problems.
