An equichordal characterization of the ellipsoid and the sphere
Victor A. Aguilar-Arteaga, Rafael Iván Ayala-Figueroa, Jesús Jerónimo-Castro +1
Let and be two convex bodies in , , with . In this paper we prove the following result: if every two parallel chords of ,…
Flat grazes of convex bodies and local characterization of quadrics
Jesús Jerónimo-Castro, Luis Montejano, Efrén Morales-Amaya
We prove several localized characterizations of quadrics and, between them, the localized Blaschke's Theorem and use this result to give some characterizations of the ellipsoid rel…
A Characterization of the sphere and a body of revolution by means of Larman points
MarÃa Angeles Alfonseca, Michelle Cordier, Jesús Jerónimo-Castro +1
Let , , be a convex body. A point the interior of is said to be a Larman point of if for every hyperplane passing through the s…
On characteristic properties of the ellipsoid in terms of circumscribed cones of a convex body
Efrén Morales-Amaya, Geronimmo Mondragón, Jesús Jerónimo-Castro
We strongly believe that in order to prove two important geometrical pro\-blems in convexity, namely, the G. Bianchi and P. Gruber's Conjecture \cite{bigru} and the J. A. Barker an…
Ball characterizations in planes and spaces of constant curvature, I
Jesús Jerónimo-Castro, Endre Makai
Let us have in S^2, R^2 or H^2 a pair of convex bodies, for S^2 different from S^2, such that the intersections of any congruent copies of them are centrally symmetric. Then our bo…
