A classical theorem of van der Corput gives a bound for the volume of a symmetric convex set in terms of the number of lattice points it contains. This theorem is here generalized and extended for a large class of non-symmetric sets in the plane.

Let K be a planar, compact, convex set with circumradius R, diameter d, width w and inradius r, and containing no points of the integer lattice. We generalise inequalities concerning the ‘dual’ quantities (2R − d) and (w − 2r) to rectangular lattices. We then use these results to obtain corresponding inequalities for a planar convex set with two interior lattice points. Finally, we conjecture corresponding results for sets containing one interior lattice point.

Other Hand

Pitt's conjecture (1977) that P( A ∩ B) ≥ P( A) P( B) under the Nn (0, In) distribution of X, where A, B are symmetric convex sets in IRn still lacks a complete proof. This note establishes that the above result is true when A is a symmetric rectangle while B is any symmetric convex set, where A, B ∈ IRn. We give two different proofs of the result, the key component in the first one being a recent result by Hargé (1999). The second proof, on the other hand, is based on a rather old result of Šidák (1968), dating back a period before Pitt's conjecture.

We obtain a result about the maximal circumradius of a planar compact convex set having circumcentre O and containing no non-zero lattice points in its interior. In addition, we show that under certain conditions, the set with maximal circumradius is a triangle with an edge containing two lattice points.

New Inequalities

We obtain new inequalities relating the inradius of a planar convex set with interior containing no point of the integral lattice, with the area, perimeter and diameter of the set. By considering a special sublattice of the integral lattice, we also obtain an inequality concerning the inradius and area of a planar convex set with interior containing exactly one point of the integral lattice.

We obtain two inequalities relating the diameter and the (minimal) width with the area of a planar convex set containing exactly one point of the integer lattice in its interior. They are best possible. We then use these results to obtain some related inequalities.

AbstractB. Grünbaum, J. N. Lillington and lately R. J. Gardner, S. Kwapien and D. P. Laurie have considered inequalities defined by three concurrent straight lines in the interior of a planar compact convex set. In this note we prove two elegant conjectures by R. J. Gardner, S. Kwapien and D. P. Laurie.

We generalise to a rectangular lattice a known result about the maximal width of a planar compact convex set containing no points of the integral lattice. As a corollary we give a new short proof that the planar compact convex set of greatest width which contains just one point of the triangular lattice is an equilateral triangle.
