Abstract:
Topological means are used for the study of approximation of -dimensional sections of a -dimensional convex body by affine-regular pentagons and approximation of a centrally symmetric convex body by a prism. Also, the problem of estimating the relative surface area of the sphere in a normed -space, the problem on universal covers for sets of unit diameter in Euclidean space, and some related questions are considered.
