Understanding why $\frac{\phi^5}{2}$ solves this 3D optimization problem, where $\phi$ is the golden ratio
I would like to understand the deep meaning of a solution which arises from an optimization problem discussed in a paper of mine since it can be simply stated as $\frac{\phi^5}{2}$, where $\phi := \...
