The variant of the Kakeya problem phrased in terms of Wolff's axioms for convex sets: whether convex Kakeya/Besicovitch sets (or their associated set of directions) satisfy Wolff-type dimension axioms. Claims about the truth or failure of the convex Wolff axioms in specific dimensions, and related convexity-based constructions, belong here; the standard (non-convex) Kakeya set conjecture does not.

Every set of delta-tubes pointing in delta-separated directions satisfies the polynomial Wolff axioms in every dimension.
