Abstract

We show that there exists an open set H⊆[0, 1] × [0, 1] with λ2(H) = 1 such that for any ε > 0 there exists a set E satisfying and H contains the product set E × E but there is no set S with and S × SH. Especially this property is verified for sets of the form H = where the sets Ei are independent and . The results of this paper answer questions of M. Laczkovich and are related to a paper of D. H. Fremlin.
