Covering problems | Discrete geometry

Disk covering problem

The disk covering problem asks for the smallest real number such that disks of radius can be arranged in such a way as to cover the unit disk. Dually, for a given radius ε, one wishes to find the smallest integer n such that n disks of radius ε can cover the unit disk. The best solutions known to date are as follows. (Wikipedia).
