What is Neutral Equilibrium of Floating Bodies about?

1) The document presents a proof that if a convex body can float in neutral equilibrium (with horizontal fluid surfaces) in any orientation with a contact angle between 0 and π, then the body must be a sphere. 2) The proof examines the body in one orientation of neutral equilibrium and shows that the curve of contact between the body and fluid surface must be a curvature line on the body. 3) It then shows that rotating the body about this curve preserves the contact angle, implying the entire body is an u
