====== The square peg problem ====== The //Square Peg Problem// (a.k.a. the //Inscribed Square Problem// and the //Toeplitz' Conjecture//) is a geometry problem proposed by German mathematician Otto Toeplitz in 1911. It can be stated as : "//Does every plane simple closed curve contain all four vertices of some square?" // or// :// //"Does every continuous simple closed curve in the plane γ : S1 → R2 contains four points that are the vertices of a square?" // or// :// //"Does every Jordan curve have an inscribed square?" // It remains unsolved.
