The fractional line-piercing conjecture for intersecting convex sets in three dimensions

About 2 years old · traced to

Let F\mathcal{F} be a finite family of compact, pairwise intersecting convex sets in R3\mathbb{R}^3.

Fractional line-piercing conjecture. There exists a constant cc such that some line intersects at least c∣F∣c|\mathcal{F}| members of F\mathcal{F}.

This is proposed as a motivating higher-dimensional problem for extending the KKM method. No resolution is given in the supplied context.
