Abstract: We prove that the Hilbert Geometry of a convex set is bi-lipschitz equivalent to a normed vector space if and only if the convex is a polytope.

Review text

In this paper the author studies the Hilbert geometry of finite-dimensional convex polytopes. In particular he proves that an open convex domain \(C\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d\) not containing straight lines is a polytope if and only if, when endowed with its Hilbert distance, it is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to \(\mathbb{R}^d\) endowed with the Euclidean distance.
