| The Hadwiger number of a convex body K is the maximum number of mutually non-overlapping translates of K that can touch K. We consider several variations of this notion, by replacing translates of K with its mu-homothetic images for either mu>0, mu < 0, or combinations of mu and -mu. In yet another variation, the non-overlapping homothets of K touch the boundary of K from inside. Many open problems and a few examples will be discussed. |
