Abstract: In every dimension $dge1$, we establish the existence of a constant $v_d>0$ and of a subset $mathcal{U}_d$ of $mathbb{R}^d$ such that the following holds: $mathcalC+mathcal{U}_d=mathbb{R}^d$ for every convex set $mathcalCsubsetmathbb{R}^d$ of volume at least $v_d$ and $mathcal{U}_d$ contains at most $log(r{)}^{d-1}{r}^d$ points at distance at most $r$ from the origin, for every large $r$.
