On the multiple packing densities of triangles

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Given a convex disk K and a positive integer k, let deltaTk(K) and deltaLk(K) denote the k-fold translative packing density and the k-fold lattice packing density of K, respectively. Let T be a triangle. In a very recent paper, K. Sriamorn proved that deltaLk(T)=frac2k22k+1. In this paper, I will show that deltaTk(T)=deltaLk(T).


The author presents a proof that for every triangle the \(k\)-fold translative packing density and the \(k\)-fold lattice packing density are equal. He adds the following consequence: since the second density equals to \(\frac{2k^2}{2k+1}\) (by the author's statement published till now only in [``Multiple lattice packings and coverings of the plane with triangles, Preprint, \url{arXiv:1412.5096}]), also the first has the same value.
