Finite-plane Besicovitch set cardinality conjecture
Finite-plane Besicovitch set cardinality conjecture
For an odd prime power , a Besicovitch set in is a subset containing a line in every direction. Finite-plane Besicovitch set conjecture. The smallest Besicovitch set in has cardinality
Every such set has cardinality at least , while the source describes a construction attaining the displayed upper bound. The conjecture gives the exact minimum in the finite plane for odd prime powers.
