Abstract

We consider the Steiner polynomial of a C2 convex body . Denote by ρmin the minimum value of the principal radii of curvature of ∂K and by ρmax their maximum. When n ≤ 5, the real parts of the roots are bounded above by –ρmin and below by –ρmax. These bounds are valid for any n such that all of the roots of the Steiner polynomial of every convex body in lie in the left half-plane.
