How to draw rounded corners around box with shadow
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tcolorbox}
\tcbuselibrary{skins}
\begin{document}
\begin{tcolorbox}[enhanced jigsaw,drop shadow=black!50!white,colback=white]

\end{tcolorbox}
\end{document}
If you want to use the same style of box multiple times in your document, you can also define it in the preamble using \newtcolorbox
:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tcolorbox}
\tcbuselibrary{skins}
\newtcolorbox{mybox}
{
enhanced jigsaw,
drop shadow=black!50!white,
colback=white
}
\begin{document}
\begin{mybox}

\end{mybox}
\end{document}
Another idea considering the mdframed
package rev. 212 with the use of TikZ
.
If you want to increase the rounded corner you increase the value 8pt
. And for the thickness of the border you increase the value of middlelinewidth=2pt
.
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage[framemethod=tikz]{mdframed}
\usetikzlibrary{shadows}
\newmdenv[tikzsetting={draw=gray,fill=white},
roundcorner=8pt,shadow=true]{mdboxshad}
\mdfsetup{%
middlelinewidth=2pt
}
\begin{document}
\begin{mdboxshad}

\end{mdboxshad}
\end{document}
Another alternative without the use of mdframed
can be with pure TikZ
using the library shadows
to make the drop shadows
at the below-right:
\documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{shadows}
\newcommand{\mybox}[2]{
\begin{figure}[h]
\centering
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node[anchor=text, text width=\textwidth, draw=gray, rounded corners, line width=1.5pt, drop shadow={shadow xshift=.7ex, shadow yshift=-.7ex},fill=#1, inner sep=3mm] (big) {\\#2};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{figure}
}
\begin{document}
\mybox{white}{The content of this chapter has been published in the SRRW conference in 2017. The work of this chapter is also extended to handle the ER problem.}
\end{document}
