Convex enlargements #

This file records the two elementary enlargements used in the continuum argument: thickening a set by a multiple of its diameter, and replacing an open set by its open convex hull.

The p-diameter thickening of a set.

Equations
Instances For

    Diameter thickenings are open.

    A nonnegative p-diameter thickening has diameter at most (2p + 1) times the original.

    The extended diameter of a nonnegative diameter thickening obeys the same linear bound.

    A set is contained in every positive-radius diameter thickening.

    A bounded set meeting s lies in the p-diameter thickening of s when its diameter is smaller than the thickening radius.

    The interior of the convex hull of a set.

    Equations
    Instances For

      The open convex hull is convex.

      An open set is contained in its open convex hull.

      Passing from an open set to its open convex hull does not change its extended diameter.

      Passing from an open set to its open convex hull does not change its diameter.
