Abstract

The exact value of Γ m ( K ) , which is the least positive number γ such that a convex body K can be covered by m translates of γ K , is usually difficult to obtain. We present exact values of Γ 14 ( B 1 3 ) , Γ 11 ( B 1 4 ) , Γ 2 n ( B 1 n ) , Γ 2 n + 1 ( B 1 n ) , and Γ 2 n + 2 ( B 1 n ) , where B 1 n is the unit ball of R n endowed with the taxicab norm.
