摘要
A new angular measure in Minkowski plane was introduced recently. It is additive, invariant under invertible linear transformations, and has a clear interpretation as an "amount of rotation" from one direction to another one. The total angle T around a point depends on the unit ball. It is known that 4.443 approximate to root 2 pi <= T <= 8. We show that 4.985 approximate to 4 root 2 ln tan 3 pi/8 <= T <= 8 ln tan 3 pi/8 approximate to 7.051.
