We show that $m$ points and $n$ two-dimensional algebraic surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$ can have at most $O(m^{\frac{k}{2k-1}}n^{\frac{2k-2}{2k-1}}+m+n)$ incidences, provided that the algebraic surfaces behave like pseudoflats with $k$ degrees…

We completely characterize point--line configurations with $\Theta(n^{4/3})$ incidences when the point set is a section of the integer lattice. This can be seen as the main special case of the structural Szemer\'edi-Trotter problem. We also…

In this paper, we study a point-hyper plane incidence theorem in matrix rings, which generalizes all previous works in literature of this direction.

Several tools have been developed to enhance automation of theorem proving in the 2D plane. However, in 3D, only a few approaches have been studied, and to our knowledge, nothing has been done in higher dimensions. In this paper, we present…

In this paper we introduce a unified approach to deal with incidence problems between points and varieties over finite fields. More precisely, we prove that the number of incidences $I(\mathcal{P}, \mathcal{V})$ between a set $\mathcal{P}$…

In our paper, we introduce a new method for estimating incidences via representation theory. We obtain several applications to various sums with multiplicative characters and to Zaremba's conjecture from number theory.

This thesis establishes new quantitative records in several problems of incidence geometry and growth. After the necessary background in Chapters 1, 2 and 3, the following results are proven. Chapter 4 gives new results in the incidence…

The main purpose of this paper is to prove that the point-line incidence bound due to Vinh (2011) over arbitrary finite fields can be improved in certain ranges by using tools from the VC-dimension theory. As consequences, a number of…

We obtain a polynomial upper bound in the finite-field version of the multidimensional polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem for distinct-degree polynomials. That is, if $P_1, ..., P_t$ are nonconstant integer polynomials of distinct degrees and…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a set of $m$ points and $\mathcal{L}$ a set of $n$ lines in $K^2$, where $K$ is a field with char$(K)=0$. We prove the incidence bound $$\mathcal{I}(\mathcal{P},\mathcal{L})=O(m^{2/3}n^{2/3}+m+n).$$ Moreover, this bound…

We prove an analog of the Szemer\'edi-Trotter theorem in the plane for definable curves and points in any o-minimal structure over an arbitrary real closed field $\mathrm{R}$. One new ingredient in the proof is an extension of the well…

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 $p$-adic rings. In this paper, we investigate incidences…

The symmetric case of the Szemer\'edi-Trotter theorem says that any configuration of $N$ lines and $N$ points in the plane has at most $O(N^{4/3})$ incidences. We describe a recipe involving just $O(N^{1/3})$ parameters which sometimes…
