Title: The Kayeka needle problem for rectifiable sets
Speaker: Marianna Csörnyei (University of Chicago)
Abstract: We show that the classical results about rotating a line segment in arbitrarily small area, and the existence of a Besicovitch and a Nikodym set hold if we replace the line segment by an arbitrary rectifiable set. This is a joint work with Alan Chang.
