In 1993, a negative solution, based on a theorem by Frankl and Wilson, was given by Kahn and Kalai. In this paper I will present questions related to Borsuk's problem.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-19T10:49:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "borsuks problem", "combinatorial geometry", "smaller diameter", "negative solution" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150504952K" } } }
