Generalizations of Joints Problem

Combinatorics 2016-06-29 v1

Abstract

We generalize the joints problem to sets of varieties and prove almost sharp bound on the number of joints. As a special case, given a set of NN 22-planes in R6\mathbb{R}^6, the number of points at which three 22-planes intersect and span R6\mathbb{R}^6 is at most CN3/2+ϵCN^{3/2+\epsilon}. We also get almost sharp bound on the number of joints with multiplicities. The main tools are polynomial partitioning and induction on dimension.
