Due to Lebesgue and Brouwer. If an -dimensional figure is covered in any way by sufficiently small subregions, then there will exist points which belong to at least of these subareas. Moreover, it is always possible to find a covering by arbitrarily small regions for which no point will belong to more than regions.
