Abstract
The point-line incidence problem has been widely studied in Euclidean spaces and vector spaces over finite fields, whereas the analogous problem has rarely been considered over finite -adic rings. In this paper, we investigate incidences in the -adic setting and prove new incidence bounds for points and lines in . Our first two results extend previously known incidence bounds over finite fields, assuming lines are well-separated. For non-separated lines, we establish a general incidence result for weighted points and lines under certain dimensional spacing conditions using the Fourier analytic method and the induction-on-scales argument.
