Title
On the thinnest coverings of ellipsoids
Abstract
The thinnest coverings of ellipsoids are studied in the Euclidean spaces of an arbitrary dimension n. Given any ellipsoid, we obtain a tight asymptotic bound on the minimum size of its covering by the balls of radius ε. This bound holds for all but the most oblong ellipsoids. The results can be applied to vector quantization when different data streams are bundled together in one block.
