摘要
It is shown that every compact convex set K which is centrally symmetric and has a non-empty interior admits a lattice packing of Euclidean 3-space with density greater than or equal to 0.53835.... This is an improvement of the result in [8], which achieved a bound of 0.46421.... Minkowski combinations and the Brunn-Minkowski inequality are used in conjunction with the construction in [8] to achieve a better result.
