Timeline (last 90 days)
The two-dimensional Kakeya conjecture was proved by Davies in 1971, but the three-dimensional and higher cases remain unresolved to this day.
The planar case of the Kakeya conjecture was proved by Davies in 1971, the three-dimensional case was resolved by Hong Wang and Joshua Zahl, and the four-dimensional case and above had not been proved by anyone before.
