The examples of convex curves $C$ (not all of them ellipses, by the way) that I indicate have the property that they have a circle of inscribed triangles of perimeter $L$, where $L$ the maximum value of the perimeter of any inscribed triangle in $C$. Moreover, for each point $P\in \partial C$, there is one inscribed triangle of perimeter $L$ passing through $P$. I don't see how this is different from what you are asking. | |
