Author(s): Kalai
Conjecture The largest measure of a Lebesgue measurable subset of the unit sphere of
containing no pair of orthogonal vectors is attained by two open caps of geodesic radius
around the north and south poles.

Smooth 4-dimensional Schoenflies problem ★★★★
Author(s): Alexander
Problem Let
be a
-dimensional smooth submanifold of
,
diffeomorphic to
. By the Jordan-Brouwer separation theorem,
separates
into the union of two compact connected
-manifolds which share
as a common boundary. The Schoenflies problem asks, are these
-manifolds diffeomorphic to
? ie: is
unknotted?
