Abstract

For d = 2, 3 a generic convex body in has a unique lattice packing and for d ≥ 4 at most a(d) lattice packings of maximum density, where a(d) ≥ 1 is a constant. If in a certain connectedness property holds, one may take a(d) = 1. Dually, for d = 2 a generic convex body has a unique lattice covering of minimum density and for d ≥ 3 there is a constant b(d) ≥ 1 such that it has at most b(d) such coverings.

Key words.: Convex body; lattice packing; lattice covering; extreme density; extreme lattice; uniqueness; Baire categories
