L4DEL explanations are a separate layer. They do not change the Lean source. Intuition is explanatory prose; numbered items are a reading path; sources link the wording back to evidence.

    Source documentation

    P is the set of vertices of a (full-dimensional) convex polyhedron in $\mathbb{R}^3$: the points are in convex position and they affinely span $\mathbb{R}^3$ (so the polyhedron is genuinely three-dimensional).

  2. theorem Erdos660.erdos_660 Let $x_1, \ldots, x_n \in \mathbb{R}^3$ be the vertices of a convex polyhedron sorry line 56 source

    Source documentation

    Let $x_1, \ldots, x_n \in \mathbb{R}^3$ be the vertices of a convex polyhedron. Are there at least $$(1 - o(1)) \frac{n}{2}$$ many distinct distances between the $x_i$?

    The $(1 - o(1)) \frac{n}{2}$ lower bound is formalised as: for every $\varepsilon > 0$, every set of $n$ vertices of a convex polyhedron with $n$ sufficiently large determines at least $(1 - \varepsilon) \frac{n}{2}$ distinct distances.
