Abstract

We consider subdivisions of a convex body G in two subsets E and GE. We obtain several inequalities comparing the relative volume: (1) with the minimum relative inradius, (2) with the maximum relative inradius, (3) with the minimum relative width, and (4) with the maximum relative width. In each case, we obtain the best upper and lower estimates for subdivisions determined by general hypersurfaces and by hyperplanes.
