| Abstract: |
|---|
| In the 1950's Steinhaus asked whether there is a set in the
plane that meets each isometric copy of Z^2 in exactly one point. I will
discuss some of the ideas involved in the construction of such a set given
by Steve Jackson and myself and discuss several unsolved problems
concerning other lattices and measurability of such sets. |
