Abstract

An n−simplex is circumscriptible if there is a sphere tangent to each of its n(n + 1)/2 edges. We prove that the radius of the curcumscribed sphere is at least √((2n)/(n-1)) times the radius of the edge-tangent sphere in the circumscriptible n−simplex. This settles affirmatively a part of a problem posed by the authors.
