MAXIMAL EMPTY ELLIPSOIDS

International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications, 1996
The task of finding the largest empty ellipsoid defined by a set of n point sites in Rd is investigated. It is shown that this can be solved by enumerating the facets of the convex hull of the sites projected onto a manifold in R[d(d+3)/2]. While O(n[d(d+3)/4]) time is required in the worst case, it is found that O(nd) suffices on average for ...

$L_p$ John Ellipsoids

Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, 2005
The authors show that associated with each convex body \(K\) that contains the origin in its interior is a family of ellipsoids \(E_pK\), the \(L_p\) John ellipsoids of \(K\). For origin-symmetric \(K\) the ellipsoid \(E_{\infty}K\) turns out to be the classical John ellipsoid. This is the largest (in volume) ellipsoid that can be squeezed inside \(K\).

Circumscribing an Ellipsoid about the Intersection of Two Ellipsoids

Canadian Mathematical Bulletin, 1968
An ellipsoid G is associated uniquely with a positive definite matrix A viaNote that all ellipsoids discussed here are centred at 0. Given G1, and G2 we seek another ellipsoid circumscribed about G1 ∩ G2. It is easy to see that if and only if x'hx ≤ maxi x'aix for all vectors x.

The Ellipsoid

1999
Abstract In this chapter we present explicit results for low frequency scattering by a triaxial ellipsoid with semi-axes  a  1 > a  2 > a  3 > 0. Results for rotationally symmetric ellipsoids are easily obtained by setting a  2 = a  3 (prolate spheroid) or a  1 = a  2 (oblate spheroid).

Ellipsoidal Harmonics

2012
The sphere is what might be called a perfect shape. Unfortunately nature is imperfect and many bodies are better represented by an ellipsoid. The theory of ellipsoidal harmonics, originated in the nineteenth century, could only be seriously applied with the kind of computational power available in recent years.
