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 study the orchard problem on cubic surfaces. We classify possibly reducible cubic surfaces $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^3(\C)$ with smooth components on which there exist families of finite sets (of unbounded size) with quadratically many…

We prove a Szemer\'edi-Trotter type theorem and a sum-product estimate in the setting of finite quasifields. These estimates generalize results of the fourth author, of Garaev, and of Vu. We generalize results of Gyarmati and S\'ark\"ozy on…

We generalize the Szemer\'edi-Trotter incidence theorem, to bound the number of complete \emph{flags} in higher dimensions. Specifically, for each $i=0,1,\ldots,d-1$, we are given a finite set $S_i$ of $i$-flats in $\R^d$ or in $\C^d$, and…

We study a Szemer\'edi-Trotter type theorem in finite fields. We then use this theorem to obtain an improved sum-product estimate in finite fields.

We establish a cutting lemma for definable families of sets in distal structures, as well as the optimality of the distal cell decomposition for definable families of sets on the plane in $o$-minimal expansions of fields. Using it, we…

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…

We use spectral theory and algebraic geometry to establish a higher-degree analogue of a Szemer\'edi--Trotter-type theorem over finite fields, with an application to polynomial expansion.

We introduce the notion of (Ramsey) action of a tree on a (filtered) semigroup. We then prove in this setting a general result providing a common generalization of the infinitary Gowers Ramsey theorem for multiple tetris operations, the…

We study configurations of $n$ points and $n$ lines that form $\Theta(n^{4/3})$ incidences, when the point set is a Cartesian product. We prove structural properties of such configurations, such that there exist many families of parallel…

In a pervious paper Weidmann shows that there a bound on the number of orbits of edges in a tree on which a finitely generated group acts $(k,C)$-acylindrically. In this paper we extend this result to actions which are $k$-acylindrical…

We prove some novel multi-parameter point-line incidence estimates in vector spaces over finite fields. While these could be seen as special cases of higher-dimensional incidence results, they outperform their more general counterparts in…

We prove a general result about the decomposition on ergodic components of group actions on boundaries of spherically homogeneous rooted trees. Namely, we identify the space of ergodic components with the boundary of the orbit tree…

We apply the Fixed Point Theorem for the actions of finite groups on Bruhat-Tits buildings and their products to establish two results concerning the groups of points of reductive algebraic groups over polynomial rings in one variable,…

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 present some new sharp constructions for the Szemer\'{e}di-Trotter theorem. These constructions generalize previous work of Erd\H{o}s, Elekes, Sheffer and Silier, Guth and Silier, and the author. In the past, arguments showing the…

We prove an acylindrical accessibility theorem for finitely generated groups acting on $\mathbf R$-trees. Namely, we show that if $G$ is a freely indecomposable non-cyclic $k$-generated group acting minimally and $M$-acylindrically on an…

Recently Guth and Katz \cite{GK2} invented, as a step in their nearly complete solution of Erd\H{o}s's distinct distances problem, a new method for partitioning finite point sets in $\R^d$, based on the Stone--Tukey polynomial ham-sandwich…

This paper generalizes the basic notions of additive and multiplicative combinatorics to the setting of group actions: if $G$ is a group acting on a set $X$, and we have subsets $A\subseteq G$ and $Y\subseteq X$ such that the set of pairs…

We generalize the classical semiregularity theorem of Buchweitz and Flenner to the setting of noncommutative algebraic geometry, with group actions. This applies in particular to twisted derived categories, in which case it answers a…
