Review text

The author deals with two problems concerning cylinders of revolution which touch a number of mutually skew straight lines in 3-dimensional euclidean space. There are 32 cylinders with given radius for 4 mutually skew straight lines and 512 cylinders in case of 5 skew straight lines. The author gives the number of touching cylinders over the complex field, he does not inverstigate the problem over \(R\). The paper is dedicated to the 60th birthday of Professor H. Sachs.
