No label defined (Q4489362)

[For part I see \textit{Q.~Luo}, ibid. 22, No.~4, 1-8 (1996; Zbl 0872.15013).] Let \(S_n\) be the unit sphere in an \(n\)-dimensional real vector space, let \(I_j=(1,\lambda_1,\dots, \lambda_{n-1})\) be all possible vectors with \(|\lambda_i|=1\). The Malan conjecture is equivalent to prove that \(f(A)=(\sum_{j=1}^{2^{n-1}}|\langle I_j,A\rangle|)/2^{n-1}\geq 1/\sqrt 2\) where \(A\in S_n\). In this paper, the authors carry on the second step to attack this problem: construct the intersection points. A method is given for obtaining an \((n+1)\)-dimensional intersection point from an \(n\)-dimensional domain. It is also proved that \(f\geq 1/\sqrt 2\) for two or three layer field of dimension \(n\).
