论文摘要
在本文中，我们证明了几何不等式，该等于单位半径的半球上的任何四个点，点之间最大的距离总和为4+4*sqrt（2）。 In our method, we have constructed a rectangular neighborhood of the local maximum point in the feasible set, which size is explicitly determined, and proved that (1): the objective function is bounded by a quadratic polynomial which takes the local maximum point as the unique critical point in the neighborhood, and (2): the rest part of the feasible set can be partitioned into a finite union of a large number of very small cubes so that on each small cube the conjecture可以通过使用精确的数值计算估算目标函数来验证。
In this paper, we prove a geometrical inequality which states that for any four points on a hemisphere with the unit radius, the largest sum of distances between the points is 4+4*sqrt(2). In our method, we have constructed a rectangular neighborhood of the local maximum point in the feasible set, which size is explicitly determined, and proved that (1): the objective function is bounded by a quadratic polynomial which takes the local maximum point as the unique critical point in the neighborhood, and (2): the rest part of the feasible set can be partitioned into a finite union of a large number of very small cubes so that on each small cube the conjecture can be verified by estimating the objective function with exact numerical computation.
