Abstract

It is proved that the total length of any set of countably many rectifiable curves whose union meets all straight lines that intersect the unit square U is at least 2.00002. This is the first improvement on the lower bound of 2 known since 1964. A similar bound is proved for all convex sets U other than a triangle. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier B.V.
