View on Github →feat(measure_theory/covering/besicovitch_vector_space): vector spaces satisfy the assumption of Besicovitch covering theorem (#9461)
The Besicovitch covering theorem works in any metric space subject to a technical condition: there should be no satellite configuration of N+1
points, for some N
. We prove that this condition is satisfied in finite-dimensional real vector spaces. Moreover, we get the optimal bound for N
: it coincides with the maximal number of 1
-separated points that fit in a ball of radius 2
