The Spherical Kakeya Problem in Finite Fields
The Spherical Kakeya Problem in Finite Fields
We study subsets of the $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, for odd $q$, which contain either a sphere for each radius or a sphere for each first coordinate of the center. We call such sets radii spherical Kakeya sets and center spherical Kakeya sets, respectively. For $n\ge …
