Abstract

A {\it soft ball packing of unit balls with outer radius λ>0}, is a family of pairs of concentric closed balls, one with radius 1+λ, called a {\it soft ball}, and the other one with unit radius, called the {\it core} of the soft ball. In this talk I review results related to soft ball packings of unit balls, and some related concepts. Most of the presented results are joint work with K. Bezdek.
