Some Characterizations of the Ellipsoid by Centroids of Concurrent Sections
Journal of convex analysis, Tome 27 (2020) no. 4, pp. 1219-1231
Recently M. Meyer and S. Reisner [Characterizations of ellipsoids by section-centroid location, Geometriae Dedicata 31 (1989) 345--355] proved the following result, generalizing a classical result due to Brunn [see W. Blaschke, Kreis und Kugel, Göschen Verlag, Leipzig (1916)]: If the subset K of Rn is a convex body with the property that the centroids of every set of parallel sections, cut by parallel hyperplanes, are collinear, then K is an ellipsoid.
