Abstract

A conjecture of A. J. Hoffman is settled by showing that if P is a ri-polytope in E, if compact convex subsets C.are such that every (-dimensional affine flat that meets P also meets U _.Cthen there exist polytopes such that every i-flat that meets P also meets U.D., provided Counterexamples are given for the cases where.
