On the number of unit-area triangles spanned by convex grids in the plane

Original · EN

A finite set of real numbers is called convex if the differences between consecutive elements form a strictly increasing sequence. We show that, for any pair of convex sets A, B, each of size n¹/², the convex grid A× B spans at most O(n³⁷/¹⁷²/¹⁷n) unit-area triangles. This improves the best known upper bound O(n³¹/¹⁴) recently obtained in RS. Our analysis also applies to more general families of sets A, B, known as sets of Szemerédi--Trotter type.
