A note on the pyjama problem
This note concerns the so-called pyjama problem, whether it is possible to cover the plane by finitely many rotations of vertical strips of half-width ε. We first prove that there exist no periodic coverings for ε<1/3. Then we describe an explicit (non-periodic) construction for ε=1/3 - 1/48. Fin...
