On hyperbolic virtual polytopes and hyperbolic fans (Q2501228): Difference between revisions

A.~D.~Alexandrov made the following conjecture. If \(K \subseteq {\mathbb R}^3\) is a smooth convex body such that there exists a constant \(C\) for which the principal radii of curvature \(R_1,R_2\) at every boundary point of \(K\) satisfy \(R_1 \leq C \leq R_2\), then \(K\) is a ball. However, \textit{Y.~Martinez-Maure} [C.\ R.\ Acad.\ Sci.\ Paris, Ser. 1, 332, 41--44 (2003; Zbl 1008.53002)] found a counter-example to the conjecture, and the present author [Adv.\ Geom. 5, 301--317 (2005; Zbl 1077.52003)] has found others. In this paper, the author describes more families of counter-examples.
