Semidefinite programming bounds for the average kissing number
Maria Dostert, Alexander Kolpakov, Fernando Mário de Oliveira Filho
The average kissing number of is the supremum of the average degrees of contact graphs of packings of finitely many balls (of any radii) in . We provid…
Kissing number in spherical space
Maria Dostert, Alexander Kolpakov
This paper investigates the behaviour of the kissing number of congruent radius spheres in , for . Such a quantity depends on the radius $r…
Kissing number in hyperbolic space
Maria Dostert, Alexander Kolpakov
This paper provides upper and lower bounds on the kissing number of congruent radius spheres in , for . For that purpose, the kissing number is repla…
New dense superball packings in three dimensions
Maria Dostert, Frank Vallentin
In this paper we construct a new family of lattice packings for superballs in three dimensions (unit balls for the norm) with . We conjecture that the fami…
