从 $\R^n$ 中一个单纯形的顶点出发,我们构造一个三次向量场。若该单纯形的 John 椭球的半轴互不相同,则此向量场的雅可比矩阵在椭球的焦点集上恰好具有重特征值。这一结论对所有维度 $n\geq2$ 均成立。我们给出 $\R^4$、$\R^3$ 和 $\R^2$ 中的例子:三个焦点二次曲面、一个椭圆和一条双曲线,以及最后两个点。在平面情形中,这两个点也是 Siebeck–Marden 定理中导数的零点。复数解释了为何平面情形具有更短的公式。
英文摘要
Starting with the vertices of a simplex in $\R^n$, we build a cubic vector field. If the semiaxes of the simplex's John ellipsoid are distinct, the Jacobian of this field has repeated eigenvalues exactly on the ellipsoid's focal sets. This works in every dimension $n\geq2$. We give examples in $\R^4$, $\R^3$, and $\R^2$: three focal quadrics, an ellipse and a hyperbola, and finally two points. In the plane, these two points are also the zeros of the derivative in the Siebeck--Marden theorem. Complex numbers explain why the planar case has a shorter formula.
