%0 Journal Article %T Stability results for sections of convex bodies %A Matthew Stephen %A Vladyslav Yaskin %J Mathematics %D 2015 %I arXiv %X It is shown by Makai, Martini, and \'Odor that a convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, all of whose maximal sections pass through the origin, must be origin-symmetric. We prove a stability version of this result. We also discuss a theorem of Koldobsky and Shane about determination of convex bodies by fractional derivatives of the parallel section function, and establish the corresponding stability result. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1506.04407v1
