A new proof of the Larman-Rogers upper bound for the chromatic number of   the Euclidean space
  The chromatic number $\chi(\mathbb{R}^n)$ of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ is the smallest number of colors sufficient for coloring all points of the space in such a way that any two points at the distance 1 have different colors. In 1972 Larman--Rogers proved that $\chi(\mathbb{R}^n) \leq (3 + o(1))^n$. We give a new proof of this bound.
