Tóm tắt

Gardner conjectured that if two bounded measurable sets A, B ⊂ ℝn are equidecomposable by a set of isometries Γ generating an amenable group then A and B admit a measurable equidecomposition by all isometries. Cieśla and Sabok asked if there is a measurable equidecomposition using isometries only in the group generated by Γ. We answer this question negatively.
