The regular n-flake dust in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ is not Minkowski measurable

A long-standing conjecture of Lapidus asserts that under certain conditions a self-similar fractal set is not Minkowski measurable if and only if it is of lattice-type. For self-similar sets in $\mathbb{R}$, the Lapidus conjecture has been confirmed. However, in higher dimensions, it remains unclear whether all lattice-type self-similar sets are not Minkowski measurable. This work presents families of lattice-type subsets in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ that are not Minkowski measurable, hence providing further support for the conjecture.
