The infimum of the volumes of convex polytopes of any given facet areas is 0

We prove the theorem mentioned in the title for ℝn where n ≧ 3. The case of the simplex was known previously. Also the case n = 2 was settled, but there the infimum was some well-defined function of the side lengths. We also consider the cases of spherical and hyperbolic n-spaces. There we give some necessary conditions for the existence of a convex polytope with given facet areas and some partial results about sufficient conditions for the existence of (convex) tetrahedra.
