Asymptotics of Convex sets in En and Hn
Abstract
Description
We study convex sets C of finite (but non-zero volume in Hn and En. We show that the intersection of any such set with the ideal boundary of Hn has Minkowski (and thus Hausdorff) dimension of at most (n-1)/2, and this bound is sharp. In the hyperbolic case we show that for any k <= (n-1)/2 there is a bounded section S of C through any prescribed point p, and we show an upper bound on the radius of the ball centered at p containing such a section. We show similar bounds for sections through the origin of convex body in En, and give asymptotic estimates as 1 << k << n.
