摘要

In 1694, Gregory and Newton proposed the problem to determine the kissing number of a rigid material ball. This problem and its higher dimensional generalization have been studied by many mathematicians, including Minkowski, van der Waerden, Hadwiger, Swinnerton-Dyer, Watson, Levenshtein, Odlyzko, Sloane and Musin. In this paper, we introduce and study a further generalization of the kissing numbers for convex bodies and obtain some exact results, in particular for balls in dimensions three, four and eight.
