Abstract:
Let denote the least positive number
with the property that any system
of homothetic copies of a plane convex body
whose total area is at least
permits a translative covering of
. In 1984 L. Fejes Toth conjectured that for any convex body
of area 1 in the plane,
≤3. In this topic we consider the covering of circles and isosceles.
