Popis: On a convex surface S, the antipodal map F associates to any point p in S the set of farthest points from p, with respect to the intrinsic metric. S is called a Steinhaus surface if F is a single-valued involution. We prove that any convex polyhedron has an open and dense set of points p admitting a unique antipode \(F_{p}\), which in turn admits a unique antipode \(F_{F_{p}}\), distinct from p. In particular, no convex polyhedron is Steinhaus.
