Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0726.00015.] A set \({\mathcal L}\) of \(n\) lines through the origin in \(E^ d\) is called almost orthogonal if among any three lines of \({\mathcal L}\) there is at least one orthogonal pair. Let \(u_ i\) be a unit vector along each line of \({\mathcal L}\). The author shows: if \(\{u_ 1,u_ 2,\dots,u_ n\}\) is an almost orthogonal set of unit vectors in \(E^ d\), then \(n\leq 2d\).
