Circumradius-diameter and width-inradius relations for lattice constrained convex sets

Abstract

Let K be a planar, compact, convex set with circumradius R, diameter d, width w and inradius r, and containing no points of the integer lattice. We generalise inequalities concerning the ‘dual’ quantities (2R − d) and (w − 2r) to rectangular lattices. We then use these results to obtain corresponding inequalities for a planar convex set with two interior lattice points. Finally, we conjecture corresponding results for sets containing one interior lattice point.
