Abstract: | A compact set in the plane is rigid with respect to a norm if the norm isometries of the set act transitively on it. We show
that if a norm has an infinite rigid set, then, up to linear transformation, the norm is Euclidean and the set is a circle.
Our methods also yield a new characterisation of the ellipse. |
