Fejes Tóth's zone covering conjecture
A zone is the spherical neighbourhood of a great circle, with width equal to twice its maximal spherical distance from that great circle. Let zones of widths cover the unit disk. Fejes Tóth's zone covering conjecture. Their widths satisfy
The source presents this as Fejes Tóth's more general conjecture and says that the spherical conjecture discussed in the section was recently proven, so this claim is treated as solved.
