Why Is Olof Hanner Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Olof Hanner was a Swedish mathematician. Education and career Hanner earned his Ph.D. from Stockholm University in 1952. He was a professor at the University of Gothenburg from 1963 to 1989. Contributions In a 1956 paper, Hanner introduced the Hanner polytopes and the Hanner spaces having these polytopes as their metric balls. Hanner was interested in a Helly property of these shapes, later used to characterize them by : unlike other convex polytopes, it is not possible to find three translated copies of a Hanner polytope that intersect pairwise but do not have a point of common intersection. Subsequently, the Hanner polytopes formed a class of important examples for the Mahler conjecture and for Kalai's 3d conjecture. In another paper from the same year, Hanner proved a set of inequalities related to the uniform convexity of Lp spaces, now known as Hanner's inequalities.
