  - 'Let K be a convex body in ℝⁿ (i.e., a compact convex set with nonempty interior).
    Given a point p in the interior of K, a hyperplane h passing through p is called
    barycentric if p is the barycenter of K ∩ h. In 1961, Grünbaum raised the question
    whether, for every K, there exists an interior point p through which there are
    at least n+1 distinct barycentric hyperplanes. Two years later, this was seemingly
    resolved affirmatively by showing that this is the case if p=p₀ is the point of
    maximal depth in K. However, while working on a related question, we noticed that
    one of the auxiliary claims in the proof is incorrect. Here, we provide a counterexample;
    this re-opens Grünbaum’s question. It follows from known results that for n ≥
    2, there are always at least three distinct barycentric cuts through the point
    p₀ ∈ K of maximal depth. Using tools related to Morse theory we are able to improve
    this bound: four distinct barycentric cuts through p₀ are guaranteed if n ≥ 3.@eng'
