How to prove the existence of the polytope in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with a given number of faces, minimizing the isoperimetric ratio?

This is the isoperimetric type question. We know that in $\mathbb{R}^d$, balls are the sets that minimize the isoperimetric ratio $\frac{S^{d}}{V^{d-1}}$, where $S$ is the surface area and $V$ is the ...

on vectors for which the intersection of their convex hull and the nonegative orthant is the unit simplex

Consider the vectors $r^1 = (0,2,-1)$, $r^2 = (-1,0,2)$, and $r^3 = (2,-1,0)$. Two properties of these vectors that interest us here are: 1) The $i$'th coordinate of $r^i$ is 0, and 2) The ...
