Abstract

This paper proves that there exist 3n Steiner symmetrizations that transform any convex set K ⊂ ℝn into an isomorphic Euclidean ball; i.e. if vol(K) = vol(Dn) where Dn is the standard Euclidean unit ball, then K can be transformed into a body K̃ such that c1Dn ⊂ K̃ ⊂ c2D n, where c1, c2 are numerical constants. Moreover, for any c > 2, cn symmetrizations are also enough.
