Further, consider the class ${\cal B}$ of bijections $\beta$ on the integer lattice $\bbfZ^2$. The authors define a scheme ${\cal S}$ to be a function that associates a $\beta \in {\cal B}$ to every planar rotation $\alpha$. Then they seek for schemes ${\cal S}$ whose error $E({\cal S})$ is as low as possible, where $$E({\cal S}):= \sup\limits_{\alpha} \{ \sup\limits_{z \in Z^2} \{ \mid S(\alpha)(z)-\alpha (\bbfZ)\mid \}\}.$$ They estimates this error for a particular scheme.}, reviewer = {Miguel A.Jim\'enez (Puebla)}, identifier = {01271008}, }
