May 3, 2023 at 20:33 | comment | added | Nathaniel Johnston | @IosifPinelis - Very nice! $N = 3$ isn't possible, so your construction is optimal. What's also kind of neat about your $N = 4$ example is that, even though they can't be rotated into the positive orthant of $\mathbb{R}^3$, they can be embedded into higher-dimensional space (e.g., by appending $0$ coordinates) and rotated into the positive orthant in that space (I think dimension $6$ suffices). Contrast that with my set of $N = 5$ vectors that can't be rotated into the positive orthant in any dimension. | |
May 3, 2023 at 19:34 | comment | added | Iosif Pinelis | @NathanielJohnston : It is now shown within the same framework that it is enough to have $N=4$ points, which cannot be further improved. | |
May 2, 2023 at 15:52 | comment | added | Iosif Pinelis | @NathanielJohnston : You wrote: "for $N$ very large". Actually, $N$ does not have to be very large using that method. It is now shown in the Added paragraph that one can take $N=14$ (or maybe even $<14$. | |
