Review text

For a closed nonempty convex set \(F\) in Euclidean \(n\)-space \(E^n\) and a positive number \(r\), the super-equidistant set \(F^+_r\) consists of all the points \(X\subset E^n\) such that the distance between \(F\) and \(X\) is greater than \(r\). The author studies properties of the boundary of super-equidistant sets. For example, she proves that, in every boundary point of the super-equidistant set \(F^+_r\), the contingency of \(F^+_r\) is a convex cone \(C\) and the contingency of the complement of \(F^+_r\) is the complement cone \((E^n\setminus C)\cup\{X\}\).
