On an estimate of the size of the maximum matching for a family of disjoint compact convex sets in the plane (Q5951972)

Consider \(2n\) disjoint compact convex sets in the plane all having the same width in some direction. The author's main theorem says that always \([2n/3]\) pairs of the sets can be matched by disjoint line segments and that it is possible that not more than \([4n/5]\) pairs can be matched. The paper ends with two conjectures.
