On the relative distances of six points in a plane convex body

Abstract

Let C be a convex body in the Euclidean plane. By the relative distance of points p and q we mean the ratio of the Euclidean distance of p and q to the half of the Euclidean length of a longest chord of C parallel to pq. In this note we find the least upper bound of the minimum pairwise relative distance of six points in a plane convex body.
