Minimal area conics in the elliptic plane
Abstract
We prove some uniqueness results for conics of minimal area that enclose a compact, full-dimensional subset of the elliptic plane. The minimal enclosing conic is unique if its center or axes are prescribed. Moreover, we provide sufficient conditions on the enclosed set that guarantee uniqueness without restrictions on the enclosing conics. Similar results are formulated for minimal enclosing conics of line sets as well.
